Trying to steal a phone or phone case

So I know it sounds weird but I want to start selling phone cases and phone accessories but I need to get several before I start selling to see or I’m only gonna make a loss. <br><br>How do I do it? I’ve stolen before but never electronics, only food like snacks. <br><br>I don’t know if this is the right thread but like, I don’t have any money at the moment and I really need to or I’ll just have nothing. <br><br>I’m planning to steal cases but I know they’ll be monitored and i know RFID in cases are more common. I’ve stolen cases like this before but only about £3 cases like that and I only stole 1. This is when I had no idea about the RFID things and I was genuinely shocked that it didn’t beep. But if I’m gonna buy more stock I need to take more stock. <br><br>Can anyone give me tips or advice like I know it’s high risk but obviously depends on the material. If I’m gonna steal like a £30 case I guess I could afford to steal about 3 before I end up about £30 loss if I get caught? And money to bail me out obviously. <br><br>I also had a thought I don’t know if I’d follow through with but I’ve thought about stealing a phone. A bunch of cheap phones are in my local electrics store including an iPhone 8. I don’t know how much it’d cost to unlock a phone but I know you can do it and I’ve never unlocked a phone before. I don’t think unlocking phones are illegal but I know it’s illegal to steal but if you had an unlocked phone which is obviously illegal, you’d just need to get yourself a sim. <br><br>Is it something like idk buy a sim card? I don’t know how much that costs but I’m guessing it’s cheaper than the iPhone 8. For example if I stole iPhone 8 (let’s say it’s about £100) and I paid £20 to unlock it or whatever then I’d have to pay £20 to get a sim card or less and let’s say I only paid £20 to get a sim card or less (less being less than £20) I can obviously keep it but I’d obviously need to unlock it at your own risk of selling it, or I can sell it at a higher price to make up for the phone money I’d have to pay unlocking it and a sim card and obviously make a little profit off of it. But I’d have to find a buyer obviously. <br><br>If anyone has any tips for stealing phones please let me know. If I end up stealing an iPhone I’d probably steal an iPhone 8 I know they’re not the best phones but they’re obviously better than my current phone which is an iPhone 2g. <br><br>I’ve stolen from this store before about 3 times but I’ve only stolen like low value items like £2 brush or a phone case. I’ve never been caught but I’ve only only stolen once when I had someone with me. But I’m gonna steal alone unfortunately and like I said I’m only stealing like a £3 case for example. But if I steal an iPhone I’d obviously be stealing alone without any help and I’ve never stolen alone before. But I’d take less risk if I stole a phone obviously. <br><br>If anyone has any tips or know how to unlock a phone please let me know.
