A 22-year-old has been arrested in an alleged scam of the largest internet retailer that totaled nearly $370,000 by sending return packages filled with dirt. James Gilbert Kwarteng, of Palma de Mallorca, Spain, allegedly swindled Amazon by filling up the ordered items’ boxes with dirt and registering with the exact weight of the product. He would then receive a refund from Amazon and sell the original item, according to El Español and El Diario de Mallorca.

How does a huge company like this let this happen for so long?

Got arrested? You can do that anytime.

Sounds like he had intimate knowledge of their returns policy and saw an opportunity but didn’t think to create an alias and use a different mailing address.

The Amazon Book store down the street where I scan my package return and leave without ever talking to a human brings me joy. Coupled with same day shipping.

If you wanna live large for 3 years then get raped in prison for the next 7-10, go for it.

Now, we had a chance to meet this young man and, boy, that's just a straight-shooter with "upper management" written all over him.
