10 Videos of Porch Pirates Getting Caught Committing Theft

Just yesterday I wrote some tips on how to avoid being targeted by Porch Pirates. As I started doing more research I found out just how bad this problem has become, not only here in East Texas but all across the country. There are millions of dollars worth of packages that are stolen each year and a large majority of these criminals get away with it. But there are some that face not only charges but social justice as videos of them committing the crime end up on social media.

You would think that most people, even thieves, realize that there are camera just about everywhere. If you commit a crime, there is a good chance that it was caught on camera and there will be repercussions for your actions. But some people don't care and the temptation is just too much and they end up stealing items.

There are Some People That Are Fighting Back Against Porch Pirates

Some people have had enough with these thieves and are fighting back by putting some fake packages out on their doorstep, some filled with glitter so it makes a gigantic mess. Others as seen in a video below just waits and then takes physical action. PLEASE, if you encounter a thief don't start a fight, contact law enforcement.

With all the cameras, and new ways to combat porch pirates lets hope that soon this criminal activity will be a thing of the past. Really, no one leaves expensive items outside of their home anymore, everyone has learned that lesson. But unfortunately, these criminals are just looking for a quick score, so for now we will have to continue taking videos of them and shaming them online as seen in the videos below.

Here is a video of a guy high centering his vehicle attempting to be a porch pirate:
