The Rolex Watch

Crime Clean-Up

Gary is a greedy 9-year-old boy that always tries to find alternatives for expensive stuff. During a shopping trip, Gary saw a Rolex watch in a glass casing. To his horror, he saw that it cost $259. Disappointed, he went window shopping and found another Rolex watch in another glass casing. The first one cost more than quadraple times as much as the second one. The second one only cost $36! He gave the shopkeeper thirty-six bucks and got a big, brown case. He shook the inside and heard a jingling sound. Given a recyclable plastic bag, Gary went home with an excited face. He pulled of the bag and took out the case and barged open the lid. He did get a watch, a Rolex, in fact. The thing was, that, the Rolex watch was a counterfeit!
He reported to the police. Despite the police's efforts, they couldn't find the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper had fled!
This story tells us not to fall for cheats, counterfeits or things that are too good to be true.
