No I said it was claimed to be $250,000 in services. I said that figure was silly.

Take now, work out what it is later. If the police went to a house where there are stolen goods and evidence of stolen goods, would you expect them to sit there and check the serial numbers on all the VCRs in the building to see if they are stolen and leave the ones that aren't or gather everything and then return anything that is legit? What if one of those legit VCRs actually contains damning evidence that they turned your house over and have your passport, social security card, credit cards, life insurance papers etc. You'd be pissed if they missed that! Like you said they stole $250,000 worth of services and as Howie points out they committed a Federal offense. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Timothy Heald" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Community" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 22, 2002 6:28 PM Subject: RE: Anyone Seen This Yet? > And his VCR? > > Copies of software to which he had valid licenses? > > Nah way to far. > > Tim > > -----Original Message----- > From: Stephen Moretti [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, November 22, 2002 1:32 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Re: Anyone Seen This Yet? > > > Hardly the same as stealing bandwidth. > > Taking hardware like that is called "gathering evidence". > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Haggerty, Mike" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "CF-Community" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Friday, November 22, 2002 6:15 PM > Subject: RE: Anyone Seen This Yet? > > > > Right... > > > > So if I stick an apple in my jacket at the grocery store and leave without > > paying for it, 12 armed FBI agents should show up at my house, arrest me, > > and seize all of my jackets and some shoes to boot? > > > > Something's rotten in Toldeo. > > > > M > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Stephen Moretti [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: Friday, November 22, 2002 1:15 PM > > To: CF-Community > > Subject: Re: Anyone Seen This Yet? > > > > > > Ha!
