Video 14 indicted in connection with 'porch pirate' ring, NY prosecutors say

Prosecutors in New York have announced the dismantling of a sophisticated ring of thieves known as "porch pirates" who targeted FedEx packages containing valuable electronic devices. Thirteen individuals have been indicted, with one video being specifically linked to the operation.

According to law enforcement officials, this group exploited vulnerabilities in the shipping industry, taking advantage of unsuspecting residents by stealing packages from their doorsteps. The stolen items included laptops, smartphones, and other high-tech gadgets.

The investigation, led by New York prosecutors, found that these "porch pirates" were highly organized and sophisticated. They allegedly used social media to monitor the delivery schedules of FedEx packages, waiting for the perfect moment to strike when no one was looking.

The use of video surveillance, often hidden from view, enabled the group to remain anonymous and carry out their crimes with relative impunity. However, thanks to law enforcement efforts, these thieves have now been brought to justice.

Federal authorities have confirmed that at least 14 individuals are under investigation in connection with this alleged ring.
 
omg can u even believe how sneaky they were ๐Ÿคฏ i mean i get it we all hate waiting around for our packages but stealing from ppl's doorsteps is just low ๐Ÿšซ those porch pirates thought they could just use social media to gather info and then hit the pavement when no one was looking lol what a plan ๐Ÿ™„ anyway glad law enforcement stepped in to shut them down now let's hope it sends a message to these package thieves that we're watching ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™‚๏ธ
 
I was just talking to my friend about this and she's so worried about package thefts nowadays ๐Ÿคฏ. Like, who wouldn't want to steal a brand new laptop or a PS5 from someone's doorstep? ๐Ÿ˜‚ I guess these "porch pirates" were just really good at what they did... or whatever. It's like, how hard is it to use some sort of tracker device on the package or something? ๐Ÿค” Anyway, glad that law enforcement was able to catch them and put a stop to this. Fingers crossed that no one else gets scammed out of their valuables ๐Ÿ˜Š
 
I'm telling you, it's not just about "porch pirates" here ๐Ÿคซ. It's a classic case of mass surveillance and manipulation. They're using social media to gather info on people's delivery schedules, and then hitting them when they least expect it? That's some advanced psychological warfare right there ๐Ÿ”. And don't even get me started on the video surveillance - who needs that much tech for "porch piracy"? Sounds like some high-stakes government experiment to me ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ. I mean, 14 individuals under investigation is just a drop in the bucket if you ask me... what's really going on here? ๐Ÿค”
 
๐Ÿšช๐Ÿ’ป I'm shocked by how cleverly these "porch pirates" were able to outsmart the system! It's crazy to think about how they used social media to gather intel on delivery schedules and then exploited vulnerabilities in the shipping industry to get away with it all. ๐Ÿคฏ They really seemed to have it all figured out, from using hidden video surveillance to remain anonymous... I guess you could say they were tech-savvy thieves ๐Ÿ˜ณ. It's great that law enforcement was able to catch up with them and bring them to justice, though! ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™‚๏ธ
 
๐Ÿšซ It's not the crime itself that's so bad, it's the motives behind it that make us lose our innocence ๐Ÿ˜”. These "porch pirates" were clever and calculating, but they got caught up in a game of deception and greed... which can lead to devastating consequences ๐Ÿคฏ. Now, let's hope justice is served and these 14 individuals face the full weight of the law ๐Ÿ’ช. The security of our homes and belongings should never be compromised by the actions of a few rogue individuals ๐Ÿ˜’.
 
I'M SO SICK OF THESE PORCH PIRATES! THEY'RE LIKE, TAKING ADVANTAGE OF PEOPLE WHO JUST WANT THEIR PACKAGES DELIVERED TO THEIR DOORSTEP. I MEAN, CAN'T THEY SEE THAT THOSE FACEBOOK AND INSTAGRAM ADS ARE GETTING FUNNELLED TOWARDS THE GROUP'S TARGETS? IT'S LIKE THEY HAVE A TEAM OF SPY HENS ON STEROIDS ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ’ช

I FEEL BAD FOR FEDEX CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS NONSENSE. I MEAN, IT'S NOT LIKE THESE PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO HURT ANYONE... BOTHER... OR WHAT? BUT THE THING IS, THESE PORCH PIRATES ARE LIKE THE ULTIMATE PESTS - THEY'RE ALWAYS ONE STEP AHEAD OF US AND WE NEED PEOPLE LIKE LAW ENFORCEMENT TO GET THEM.

ANYWAY, I HOPE THE 14 FOLKS UNDER INVESTIGATION LAND A GOOD FIX IN PRISON, BECAUSE TRUST ME, THEY DESERVE IT!
 
I mean, I'm glad they caught those porch pirates! It's crazy how organized and sneaky they were ๐Ÿคฏ. I guess you could say they took the whole " package theft" thing to a new level ๐Ÿ˜‚. But seriously, it just goes to show that law enforcement is on top of things and can track down even the most sophisticated thieves.

And let's be real, who hasn't had their package stolen at least once? It's like, what are you gonna do, right? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ I'm just glad FedEx has better security measures in place now. Plus, it's awesome that they're using video surveillance to help prevent future thefts.

It's also a good reminder to be more vigilant when we're waiting for our packages, especially if they're being delivered to our doorstep ๐Ÿ’ก. We should probably consider investing in those little cameras or doorbell cams just to keep an eye out for any suspicious activity ๐Ÿ“ธ.
 
um so thats a thing where ppl steal packages from your doorstep while u r not home ๐Ÿคฏ like whats the point of even havin a porch if its just gonna be a target for thieves lol? and dont they have to worry about gettin caught on camera all the time? ๐Ÿ“ธ anyway, i guess its good that law enforcement is on top of it now but what about all the other packages thats still gettin stolen i mean whats the shipping industry doin to prevent this from happenin in the first place??
 
Ugh, can you believe some people would stoop so low? Like, stealing packages from people's doorsteps just because they're convenient or whatever ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ. I mean, I get it, new tech and all that, but come on, can't these porch pirates just wait until the package arrives at their place like everyone else?!

And social media is supposed to be this amazing tool for connecting people, but now it's being used by scammers to keep tabs on delivery schedules? ๐Ÿค– That's just wild. I'm all for holding people accountable, but shouldn't there be some way to outsmart these thieves?

The part that really gets me though, is how hidden the surveillance cameras were... like, what even is the point of that?! It's not like you're going to get caught just because someone's hiding a camera in their bushes. But at the same time, I guess it does show how organized and clever these porch pirates thought they were.

Anyway, glad law enforcement was able to crack down on this operation and bring some semblance of justice to all those people who got ripped off. Still, can't help but feel a little annoyed that we even need to deal with this kind of thing in the first place ๐Ÿ˜’
 
idk how many of these porch pirates actually got caught before they were all exposed ๐Ÿ˜‚. i mean, 13 people is a decent number, but still feels like there should be more considering how much attention was given to this whole thing ๐Ÿค”. also, can we talk about how ridiculous it is that they're using social media to monitor delivery schedules? like, isn't that what tracking numbers are for? ๐Ÿ™„. and yeah, video surveillance is always a problem - you never really know if someone's watching or not ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™€๏ธ. but hey, at least the feds were able to catch some of these guys in the act... i guess ๐Ÿ‘
 
just heard about this porch pirate scandal in nyc ๐Ÿ˜’. i mean, who does that?! they're like, stealing packages right from people's doorsteps ๐Ÿšช. and the worst part is, these thieves were so smart, using social media to stalk their victims ๐Ÿ“ฑ. it's crazy how organized they were - it makes you wonder what other scammers are out there waiting for their next victim ๐Ÿค”. but anyway, glad law enforcement was able to catch them in the act ๐Ÿ’ก. 14 people under investigation? that's a lot ๐Ÿ˜ฒ. hope these porch pirates get what's coming to them ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™‚๏ธ.
 
I'm so done with these porch pirates ๐Ÿ™„. I mean, who tries to steal from people just because they're not paying attention? It's like, basic common sense. And now we've got a whole crew of them getting busted and indicted. About time, right?

But what really gets me is how sophisticated these guys were ๐Ÿคฏ. Using social media to track delivery schedules? That's some next-level stuff right there. I guess you could say they're the original " Package Pilferers" ๐Ÿ˜‚. And don't even get me started on the video surveillance - that's just creepy.

I do hope the authorities are doing a thorough investigation, though. 14 individuals under investigation is still way too many for my taste ๐Ÿค”. Maybe we can learn from this and tighten up our security measures? A girl can dream, right? ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™€๏ธ
 
omg I'm low-key impressed by these porch pirates lol they're like the ultimate hackers but instead of getting caught for good they get caught & prosecuted ๐Ÿคฃโ€โ™‚๏ธ anyway I guess it's cool that the authorities were able to track them down using social media to monitor delivery schedules was genius (or super creepy?) and those videos are so revealing! ๐Ÿ’ป๐Ÿ” anyone else thought about how easy it would be to just set up a fake porch cam & wait for some unsuspecting person to leave their package unattended? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ
 
This is so frustrating, right? I mean, who does that? Stealing packages from people's doorsteps because they can't even be bothered to wait a little while for the delivery guy to leave? It's like, have some respect for other people's property ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ. And now we find out these "porch pirates" were actually super organized and had a whole system in place... it just makes you want to shake your head ๐Ÿ˜ฉ. But at least justice is being served, and I hope the people involved are facing some serious consequences ๐Ÿ’ช. It's times like this that make me wish we could all be more mindful of our actions (and how they affect others) ๐Ÿค.
 
OMG, I'm so glad the authorities finally caught those porch pirates! ๐Ÿ™Œ They sound like total tech-savvy scammers who preyed on people's good vibes and took advantage of FedEx's vulnerabilities. It's crazy how they used social media to stay one step ahead and steal all that fancy electronics from unsuspecting folks' doorsteps.

I mean, can you imagine getting your package stolen right from under your nose? ๐Ÿ˜ฑ It's just not cool. And the fact that they used video surveillance to remain anonymous is just wild. I'm glad law enforcement was on top of it and brought these thieves to justice.

This whole ordeal makes me think about the importance of being mindful of our online presence and keeping an eye on our deliveries, especially during peak shopping seasons. We should always be aware of potential scams and take steps to protect ourselves and our loved ones. ๐Ÿ’ก
 
omg cant believe how sneaky those porch pirates were ๐Ÿคฏ they must've had skills to monitor delivery schedules on social media and plan their heists perfectly ๐Ÿ“Š i mean, who would've thought people could be so organized and tech-savvy for something as petty as stealing packages from doorsteps? ๐Ÿค‘ anyway glad law enforcement was able to catch up with them and bring some justice to the innocent people affected ๐Ÿ˜Š hope they get a good sentence for their crimes ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™€๏ธ
 
omg, can u believe those porch pirates were so clever? ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ like, they even used social media to figure out when people wouldn't be home ๐Ÿ˜‚. and now they've been caught & brought to justice. it's crazy how law enforcement was able to crack the case with video surveillance - that must've been super helpful for solving the mystery.

i'm a bit annoyed that i had to deal with porch pirates myself last month ๐Ÿคฏ when my laptop arrived at school ๐Ÿ“š, but luckily someone caught them red-handed (literally) and they were like, "oh no, we're under investigation" ๐Ÿ˜…. anyway, good job to the NYPD & fed authorities for catching those thieves! ๐Ÿ‘
 
Ugh, great, just what we need more scammers ๐Ÿ˜’. I mean, who needs package theft when you can just steal something and then try to sell it online? ๐Ÿค‘ And now these "porch pirates" are using social media to plan their heists... like, hello, that's not even a good excuse ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ. Anyone with basic common sense wouldn't just leave their package unattended on the porch ๐Ÿ˜’. I'm surprised they didn't use drones or something to scope out the neighborhood before striking ๐Ÿ’ฅ. And 14 people are under investigation? That's not enough, if you ask me... more should be held accountable for this nonsense ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ.
 
OMG u guys i was like so worried about my laptop being stolen from my porch lol i mean idk how these porch pirates even get away with it theyre like total tech wizards ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ“ฆ i heard the group was super organized and used social media to scope out delivery times its wild! i wonder if they were like, a bunch of gamers or something who just got bored and started stealing stuff ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘€ anyway glad law enforcement is crackin down on them now i mean i get it we all wanna be safe at home ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ’•
