Prison Inmate Emails His Own Release Instructions To the Prison

Bruce66423 writes: A fraudster used a mobile phone while inside a UK prison to email the prison a notice for him to be released. The prison staff then released him. The domain was registered in the name of the police officer investigating him, and its address was the court building. The inmate was in prison for fraud — he was originally convicted after calling several banks and getting them to send him upwards of £1.8 million.

    yeah, i despise the plutocracy, the abuse of our political system by corporations, how wall street and bankers are allowed to get away with terrible crimes, etc.

    but a bank is a fucking completely normal institution we all need. it just needs to be heavily regulated to function fairly

    to call all banks evil and and all bankers evil just makes you out to be a complete moron

    good luck with not getting robbed once people find out you stuff your money in your mattress
