A GUY GOT BUSTED FOR HATCHING AN UNNECESSARILY COMPLICATED SCHEME TO STEAL JACK DANIEL'S
Friday June 25th, 2010

Meet 38-year-old Andrzej Szarynzksi. He's from Coventry, England, and back in January of 2008, came up with an EXTREMELY elaborate scam to get drunk for free.

Andrzej would take a bottle of Jack Daniel's and drill a tiny hole in the lid. Then he'd use a syringe to extract all of the whiskey . . . and then another syringe to refill the bottle with apple juice. He'd seal the hole with black nail polish.

Then he'd hide the bottle in his jacket and go to a store. He'd ask for a bottle of Jack Daniel's and hand the cashier a 10-euro bill, which is worth about $12 . . . about half of what a bottle of Jack goes for.

While the cashier was distracted looking at the bill, Andrzej would swap the real bottle of Jack with the apple juice-filled bottle in his jacket. The cashier would refuse the sale, Andrzej would hand back the fake bottle, then leave.

If this seems UNNECESSARILY COMPLEX and time-consuming, it is. Andrzej ran the scam all over England from January of 2008 to May of this year and only had time to do it with 416 bottles . . . or about $12,000 worth of free whiskey.

Brown-Forman is the parent company of Jack Daniel's, and they spent more than a MILLION dollars on private detectives to track down the guy who was replacing whiskey with apple juice.

They finally tracked down Andrzej and reported him to the authorities. He was arrested and charged with 13 counts of fraud. Last week he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 11 to 15 months in prison.
