Fake Ad Used to Lure Robbery Victims

In Fort Worth, Texas, police have told news sources that two men are suspected of robbery. Allegedly, the pair lured people at gunpoint into a restaurant parking lot. The people would meet the men after responding to a fake ad on a popular website.

Now, the two men – ages 17 and 30 – are both facing charges of aggravated robbery. Back in November, the pair was arrested after three men came to the restaurant parking lot to buy a well-known tablet product that was advertised on a website for sale. When the three men met the alleged sellers of the product, the sellers refused to go inside the restaurant. Instead, they pulled a gun on the buyers and lured them into the parking lot. Once there, they stole the three men's cash as well as personal items before driving away.

The three men reported the robbery to police and arrest warrants were issued for both suspects. Shortly thereafter, police found the suspects and arrested them for the theft crimes they committed.
