In what in all probability seemed like a two - birds - with - one - stone office ( before the arrest , we entail ) , a 9 - member British gang used steal mention card to buy their own euphony on iTunes and Amazon , then collected the royalty — an estimated $ 300,000 totality .
The pack , made up of six humankind and three women , included one DJ who created the music . They then heel it on iTunes and Amazon and negociate a pretty plush 40 % commission for themselves before using stolen recognition cards to purchase $ 750,000 worth of their music .
British police state , “ We will not lie with why they did what they did until we have conducted all the interviews , ” which confirm my suspiciousness that there is no crime , and mayhap not even formal currency , in England . The outline managed to inflate their almost sure fragile melodic egos and net a pretty cent at the same time , and the British police wo n’t know why they did it until they enquire them ?
Unfortunately , the artist name they used has n’t been released , so I ca n’t make play of whatever clanging haphazardness they passed off as euphony . Apple and Amazon helped the police track down the perpetrator , who are currently being held in jail . [ Times UK ]
