[QUOTE]HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) — A Long Island deli owner and his son were charged Saturday with scamming a customer out of a $1 million lottery ticket.
Nassau County police said a 34-year-old man who doesn't speak English bought the ticket Thursday at the Peninsula Deli & Grocery in Hempstead.
The man scratched off his card, saw that he was a winner and handed it to Karim Jaghab, 26, to get his winnings, police said.
The ticket was worth $1 million, but Jaghab gave the man $1,000 in cash and kept the ticket, police said.
The customer became suspicious and went back Friday, police said. They say Jaghab and his 57-year-old father, Nabil Jaghab, the owner of the deli, tried to give him $10,000 and told him not to go to the police, authorities said.
The customer went to police, who determined that he had won the $1 million jackpot.[/QUOTE]
Its absolutely despicable but I can understand that temptation. Still, I'm glad they got caught.

boop
hope the owner loses his job
it'll surely shit on job opportunities too
fuck him
Do you know what 1,000,000 dollars could do for someone, I don't blame the guy for trying honestly, of course it's fucked up he tried taking advantage of someone, but I can see why he did what he did.

[QUOTE=dbk21894;42991195]how do you get fired from your own business[/QUOTE]
to be fair his business going out would do that
this is going to (hopefully) shit on his reviews horribly
but judging by how massively shitty other places are it probably wont
"I'll give you $10k if you don't go to the cops and get your rightful $1 million"
Don't the stores that sell winning tickets get a cut normally as well? Nowhere near the amount of the prize money, but ten thousand or so?

Steve Jobs didn't get fired, he resigned.

Storeowner thought it was the opposite.

It would probably land him in jail, as isn't this fraud?

Man, resignation really took a toll on him.

Yeah no shit, I'd do something unethical for $1,000,000 fucking dollars too.
But I probably wouldn't try to screw hi mas bad as giving him only $1000, that's just a dick move.
[QUOTE=drake90001;42991827]Steve Jobs didn't get fired, he resigned.[/QUOTE]
no I'm pretty sure he didn't get fired or resigned
I'm pretty sure he died
[QUOTE=viperfan7;42992061]It would probably land him in jail, as isn't this fraud?[/QUOTE]
pretty much yeah
fraud is some seriously nasty shit
1 million is no joke, not only that, but bribery, but that's minor compared to fraud.

He did resign before he died, as he realized he was declining in health but he still helped with major decisions as far as I know.
But on topic, yeah the store owner is probably screwed, stupid of him to take the money in the first place but to offer $10k to shut him up is such a lowball move.
Thank you come again~

fixed
Just as a matter of fact, Steve Jobs was essentially fired.
[quote]"Sculley learned that Jobs—who believed Sculley to be "bad for Apple" and the wrong person to lead the company—had been attempting to organize a boardroom coup, and on May 24, 1985, called a board meeting to resolve the matter.[81] Apple's board of directors sided with Sculley and removed Jobs from his managerial duties as head of the Macintosh division.[83][84] With no duties and exiled from the rest of the company to an otherwise-empty building, Jobs stopped coming to work. After unsuccessfully applying to fly on the Space Shuttle as a civilian astronaut, and briefly considering starting a computer company in the Soviet Union,[85] he resigned from Apple five months later.[81]"[/quote]
Yeah some of you should learn the history behind Steve Jobs before you start posting incorrect things about him.
