Really Dumb Credit Card Thief

Moore, OK - Somebody using another person's credit card number illegally is nothing new, it happens hundreds of times every day. However, it never ceases to amaze me how stupid some criminals are when perpetrating such a crime.

Take Tomica Adell Deshazer for instance. This 26-year-old mastermind allegedly decided to write down the credit card number of a customer at a Moore dry cleaners where she worked.

Deshazer, who lives in NE Oklahoma City, apparently thought she was due a really big tip from her customer - $286.15 to be exact.

According to court records, this past July, Deshazer promptly picked up the phone and used the stolen credit card information to make her monthly car payment.

Needless to say, it didn't take an abundance of detective work to figure out who the credit card thief was.

On December 11, criminal charges were filed in Cleveland County.
