This radio shack creates fake identities, fake cc information, and uses already existing addresses for sprint phones. You walk into the store, and some guy immediately pulls you aside and tells you that you can have a phone. Then he asks you who your favorite movie star is and types either the name or similar into his computer. Then he takes your credit card information and changes a number until he gets an "approved" result. Once he completes his transaction, he instructs you to make your first phone call to sprint and change your address and make certain you use "this name" (The one you chose) when you call. Then you leave the store with a new phone from sprint, a $50 dollar rebate, and no risk of ruining your credit when you don't pay the bill. So who suffers? Sprint and it's employees. The credit card holder of the actual number he puts in and the person whose address he chose (Because nobody has ever used the address for sprint before so it goes through). And who is at fault: the person performing the transaction along with the customer who aids and abets.
