What??? You realize very smart people become criminals. The crime world is basically the same as the mainstream. And all of it intertwines anyway, street crime and mainstream unethical things.
The same drive someone puts into a PhD can be put into being criminal. Fact is successful criminals don't get caught. Some of them even become presidents, military personnel, cops, and politicians...
Start with crime, build money and get then ease into legal life. Shitty pop rappers for example. ...a sloppy example of people that don't do it well.
That’s true, but aren’t financial crimes or organized crimes are where the smarter people are? Stealing raw materials to sell at shady recyclers is low bar moron crime.
Commodities tend to hold value pretty well, especially in poorer areas/nations, and if the operation is decentralized, the risks for the organizers is near zero.
If something is able to be easily taken with a plausible disguise or with low risk (the ol' hard hat, safety vest and clipboard "security pass", or just an unguarded jobsite) there will be opportunists.
For someone with greater skills, that's low hanging fruit that's not worth the risk of getting caught on camera, but the more desperate you are, the more risk you're willing to accept.
Of course, taking cable in the first place is a dick move and will negatively impact the local area and utilities as a whole, so it's a slap in the face for the entire community tbh. Some people don't care though...
Yeah, but the real money is in the price fixing and crony contracts from bribed city planners.
Thievery isn't the only crime. It's not even particularly lucrative. It's mostly done by desperate people who don't know better or independently wealthy thrill seekers who don't care about the take.
