They're all in places you can be seen or recorded. Good luck!

If only we lived in a time where covering your face was commonplace

[-] GrammatonCleric@lemmy.world 19 points 5 months ago

It only makes you look suspicious when opening a vending machine. A vending machine company uniform would be better than covering your face.

[-] steal_your_face@lemmy.ml 8 points 5 months ago

High vis vest and clipboard is all you need. That probably costs more than just buying the snacks though.

[-] papalonian@lemmy.world 10 points 5 months ago

This guy breaks in to vending machines for the snacks

[-] dalekcaan@lemm.ee 7 points 5 months ago

It's an investment. You'll get the value back as long as you steal enough snacks.

[-] Thermal_shocked@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Maybe a dolly in this case

[-] NoIWontPickaName@kbin.social 5 points 5 months ago

It’s not to not look suspicious, it’s just to cover your face so they can’t id you as easily.

It just looks less suspicious nowadays instead of drawing immediate attention

[-] whereBeWaldo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 months ago

This makes no sense, when they notice someone opened the machine they'll just check the recordings and bust your ass.

[-] BastingChemina@slrpnk.net 19 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

It's only suspicious if you take one or two snacks.

You need to completely empty the machine in a cart, bonus points if you empty several vending machines in a row.

Wear a high visibility vest and carry a clipboard and you can go anywhere

When I worked IT, I went to a local fire station and said I was there to update their computers. The person I talked to didn't seem to know that this was scheduled, but they led me to their office with the computers and showed me how to log on. I'm pretty sure they just assumed I was telling the truth because I spoke confidently and was wearing a polo, but I could have literally been anyone.

Great, you for a recording of a guy stealing from your machine. Good luck getting the police to give a damn
