Good grief..it's an epidemic.
Too many what-ifs...
Must have something big planned.
This doesn't make any sense at all to me. I found 17 of the $20 models at the local Wal-Mart and a number of the others. Ebay has a number for less. What in the name of tarnation is going on here anyway?
I've always thought it's a good idea to not purchase suspicious cell phones.
You imply that these people make sense. They are moonbats, so who knows why they need so many. They probably have way more people than we think anyway. Either that, or Mustafa's "friends and family" plan needs to be bigger.
This is now an epidemic. Goodness gracious................
Really. I guess there would be too much tracking if a middle easterner just bought them wholesale "for my storefront".
This happened at the end of July, before we saw such a trend of these sales....

'Customs takes over cell phone case

HOLYOKE - A 27-year-old California man detained by city police last month after he bought 300 cellular phones from an electronics store near the mall is facing a federal deportation hearing next month.
Mahmoud H. Elroumi, of Beverly Hills, was picked up July 23 by city detectives inside the COMPUSA store at Holyoke Crossing adjacent to the Holyoke Mall at Ingleside after being alerted by a store clerk, police said. Elroumi could not be reached for comment.
No criminal charges were filed locally against Elroumi, but Police Chief Anthony R. Scott said detectives held the California man as a suspicious person, and contacted the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency, which took him into custody. "

My SWAGs: saturate the cell towers in the vicinity of whatever "event" they are planning so no one can report what is going on...or the terrorist coordinators carry around carry around a 10-20 cards and use a different one for each call to make it harder for the NSA snoopers...or they really are going to build 1000s of IEDs to plant around the US...or they are going to strike it rich a few bucks at a time, reselling a cheap retail product out of its package, minus lawyer fees for all the legal attention they have attracted
If the terrorist cells are gearing up, there are several ways they could play this...
Untraceable phone communication (disposable phone to disposable phone).
A D-Day "mother of all battles" set of terrorist bombings in one day.
A long series of "lone nut" bombings.
At any rate, you can bet that such phones would become much more scarce in America after a domestic terrorist bombing campaign began. They could very well be stockpiling now for when that day (which may never) comes.
: )
Thank the Lord these terrorists are so hot damn dumb : )
Amazing number of illegal immigrants in these cases too.
2 men from the Republic of Georgia were stopped in Pennsylvania (with Michigan driver's licenses, $4.2k, 40 phones, an empty van, and a laptop with GPS tracking software).
