If you were going to score free DVDs somehow, what better way then to steal Netflix rentals from your neighbor’s mailbox? Just ask your jolly mailman! He’s already jacked up Mr. Thompson next door for 503 movies. Gloria Flores used to work for the USPS until she admitted to stealing over 500 DVDs in the mail from Netflix. She got 3 years probation and 100 hours community service. How’d she get caught? People in the town of Lyons started not receiving their Netflix rentals and called the Postmaster to complain. An investigation was launched and sure enough, Flores had stolen everyone’s movies. Even Gigli.
