I read the link to the original story. The way it was written made it appear that the clerk only made them believe she was on board with the robbery but had every intention to call the police after they left the store, which she obviously did. Although the author of the dumbcriminals version of this article doesn’t quote the story verbatim, it doesn’t seem paraphrased enough to completely twist the story from it’s original content.

Since you say you personally know these people, perhaps you can shed some light to if the original article was also misleading.
