I use to work for a college in the resource center and was in charge of checking out laptops along with helping students with computer problems
i checked a laptop out to an instructer later that day it was stolen from a restroom
2 days later a student came in claiming he was given a new laptop and wanted me to help him set it up...
you guest it there was the stolen laptop with the college name engraved on it (scrached out but still visible) the colleges custom boot screen and id on start up (i called security and they showed up with the cops) bad news was when he went to court they let him off
