Nvidia Video Cards Stolen Heist Russia

Men Reportedly Caught Stealing 20 Nvidia Video Cards in Russian Heist

Three employees of a Wildberries warehouse in Podolsk, Russia have been caught and arrested after stealing 20 high-end Nvidia video cards. The three suspects had an elaborately planned heist that went smoothly for the most part, but they made the mistake of trying to sell the video cards at a pawn shop that recognized the stolen goods.

How the Nvidia video cards were stolen



Video footage of the heist (posted above) spliced together from multiple security cameras, as reported by Videocards.com via Mash, begins with a few members of the team allegedly pretending to be collecting an online order and entering the warehouse. Quickly but calmly, they stack and cart the goods through the building.

They then wheel the video cards beneath the staircase before quickly grabbing the bundles of Nvidia RTX 3070 TIs (which cost about one thousand dollars each in the US). After checking upstairs to make sure the coast is clear, they run with the bundles up the stairs and carefully drop them outside a window. At street level, a third man is seen ready to catch the bundles and secure them before darting off with the goods.

The operation seemed to go off without a hitch, but the devil is in the details. While one man was able to sell one of the video cards for 60k rubles, which is less than half of their typical price of 200k rubles, the owner of the pawnshop became suspicious and realized that they were stolen. This triggered the owner to call the police, who swiftly arrived to detain the suspects and confiscate the haul.

So far, the video has garnered nearly 1 million views on Mash’s official account on VK.com. Many commenters were surprised at how brazen the alleged criminals are given that the warehouse had so many surveillance cameras.
