Transcription (of iMessage exchange): “Hi, is this Paul?

Who is this

This is Erica from the dentist's office. I got your number from your file

Pretty sure this violates Hippo but shoot your shot I guess

I'm not flirting with you. We have you on video stealing thousands of dollars of x-ray equipment”

I'm trying to figure out what X-ray equipment can be stolen that is worth only thousands of dollars. A case of those films you bite on when they x-ray your teeth?

[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 154 points 10 months ago

And why, if you have photographic evidence of grand theft, you’d text the person who stole with just “this is Erica from the dentist office.”

I have a feeling this internet person is making stuff up.

You Really Think Someone Would Do That? Just Go On the Internet and Tell Lies?

[-] kautau@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

And to think someone might post a comment on lemmy and capitalize every word! Nobody makes stuff up on the internet. Nobody capitalizes every word in a sentence. Sheeple will believe everything these days

She wants to make sure this criminal knows her name and number personally

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

Because she saw him on video and she thinks he's cute. And she also doesn't value her safety and privacy. It all checks out. This story is totally credible. /s

But what about the hippopotamus?

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 17 points 10 months ago

I could see that happening in a small town "please just return our equipment"

[-] TheBat@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Try that in a small town.

[-] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 10 months ago

Awwww. I love wholesome “Try That In A Small Town”.

Nah this is real I was there

Trust me im a dentist

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

I can collaborate this story as well, I was the hippo.

[-] rosymind@leminal.space 1 points 10 months ago

Yeaaah probably fake, but given that it could be easier to just get it back by asking rather than rescheduling patients, dealing with the police, and waiting for insurance to cover the expensive equipment it's... possible that this is legit (probably not, but possible)
