Hey its me DarkGothicFayt the one who recently got broken into and mentioned on the CAGcast, i figured I'd come on here and tell my story, which I had already typed out and posted elsewhere so I'll just paste here
Story
Came home from work with my fiancé and her brother (roommate). Got home and got out of our car to unlock the gate to the driveway. I then walked over to the front door to unlock it so we can go inside and relax. As I walked pass the window next to our door I noticed the blinds were messed up as if someone had looked outside and didn't bother to fix them. I then thought the worse and without reaching for my keys I reached for the door know to the screen door, it was unlocked. I started to panic, but then thought maybe my dad had came in to fix something, as they own the house and they rent it out to us, and happen to live across the street. I reach for the door knob, unlocked as well, I flip on the light switch and automatically my eyes go to the entertainment center. All my newer consoles are gone! I yell out to my fiancé and her brother, that our house has been broken into, everything we've saved up for taken like nothing. They had broken a window, our bedroom window and ransacked our room and living room looking for whatever they could take.
What was all that was taken? Here's some stuff
· Xbox One w/ kinect 2 controllers and 6 games, but left the power cord
· PS3 Super Slim w/ move camera, 1 controller and about 40 games (left 4 games)
· Wii U Deluxe, gamepad (left power cord for wii u and gamepad along with sensor bar)
· Xbox 360 MW3 edition, with 1 matching controller, kinect, 60 games (left a bunch games)
· 2 iPad Minis (ours and roommates)
· both of our room TVs both 32" HDTVs
· apple TV
· fiancé's laptop
· 3ds xl along with 15 3ds games and 40 ds games and 2 GBA SPs
· my beats by dre
The one thing that gets me is that it literally happened half an hour before we got home. How do we know? Well our lovely neighbors let us know, 1 side said they heard our 2 small dogs going crazy about 25 mins before (inside our home in their kennels because of the cold days) and our other neighbor heard glass breaking 30 mins earlier but didn't bother to look. Neither of them did. Wow really? Every time I hear a car stop, honk, car door close, dogs bark, any weird sound I look to see what's happening and make sure everything is ok, but you can't do the same?
Another thing, maybe I'm just overanalyzing it, is that it's weird what they took and didn't take, maybe they didn't have time but it seemed like they were choosing what to take and not, apart from the cords they left, they left all my older consoles, SNES, N64, Dreamcast, Genesis, PS1, PS2, Xbox and GameCube. They also left 4 PS3 games Resistance 1-3 and White Knight Chronicles 2, didn't' take any Wii U games apart from Mario 3D world which was in the Wii U and took all but 2 Wii games some kids Active Life Explorer I got for nieces/nephews to play and Bust-A-Move Bash, took only C to D and E to G in my 360 games (have them all alphabetical) and then just took Red Dead Redemption. Took 3 empty DS game cases (because all games were in a carrying case, which was taken) and even took the cardboard box to my Project X Zone Limited Edition. Also didn't bother taking the Apple TV in the living room even though they took the one in my room, even our roommate's laptop was sitting in plain sight and still here. They did also leave my old fat PS3 that they must've forgotten, was in a pillowcase on the couch another thing is they left my Vita here too. Didn't take my Pikachu 3DS, luckily I took that to work with me.
Not sure who did this but I'm hoping they get caught, cops got a lot of fingerprints and I hope it helps. Maybe no one will care but I had to write this for me, again since the first time I wrote it disappeared, helps me cope with what happened, and I just need to get it all our since I'm always thinking about it, especially when I see empty shelves and spots in the entertainment center.
End of story
This isn't even my first time being broken into and robbed, its the first time in my new home, but when I was younger and lived with my parents it happened about 3/4 times and it doesn't really get any easier
(, only thing that sucks worse is that when living with my parents everythign was covered under their insurance so I was able to get most back from that, and now that I liveon my own I didn't have any renters insurance or anything yet so now I have to slowly get everything back -_-.
Some more info for this story is that one of our neighbors a few houses down heard about what happened and told us how his house was broken into months before and after that he installed security cameras to maybe catch them one day and he said he would look and see if any camera caught someone in the alley or anything. Well he was looking it over and said you could see a some guys walking up and down the alley the same day but no faces can be seen. But the creepy thing he said was that he said he had heard a noise the other night in his backyard and went to look and saw nothing, and he came across that footage on his cameras and that about 20 mins before sees 2 guys go into his yard and are hiding, then he seems himself go out and look for the noise he heard walks by them without seeing them and goes back inside and that the guys stood there silently and not moving for another 30 mins. Another camera even saw some guys hiding in his neighbors yard and even his neighbor walked by them and didn't see them and were waiting for him to leave for work, but luckily other people were home so they ended up leaving after a while. Creepy tho how they sneak around in the dark no flashlights and can be so hidden that no one can see them. Now I'm like they could be in the backyard and we wouldn't even know. But we've been leaving the dogs out for a good part of the day. Should get a bigger meaner dog for full time guarding lol.
Also the saves!!! no! lol not until i read heard did I rememeber all my saves are gone! Well all my Wii U and 360 and Xbox Ones saves, luckily all my PS3 saves are on the cloud so I'm ok there.
**AND YES we have tried the Find my iphone thing on the ipads, no luck nothing comes up, either there no in WiFi, or they could've restored them already
