This happened last year, but a pharmacist was arrested for selling vaccination cards on e-Bay. For $10.

According to Salary.com, a Chicago pharmacist makes a median salary of $150 K a year.

This guy risked his career and prison for $10 a card.
And he did so on one of the largest commerce sites on the internet.

Is this the dumbest criminal of 2021?

Nah. That guy in the buffalo horn costume was way dumber than this.

Yeah, I can see that.

It's just that this pharmacist ended selling 13 of those cards. For a grand total of $130. If paid hourly, he would've made more than that in just two hours of work.

But yeah, I have to agree with you. That Viking guy or whatever the hell he was takes the top spot.
