This is not your normal Sunday Stupidity post, mostly because the video has been taken off Youtube. But the story is still amusing enough to feature here.

Instead of paying the $15 it cost to purchase seven tacos, a large order of fries, two sodas and two quesadillas with extra chicken, three men decided to scam the local “Del Taco” and videotape their whole operation to serve as a “guide” for others.

As outlined in a video posted on the popular video-sharing Web site YouTube, Echeverria netted the feast from a Rialto Del Taco by calling the manager to say he was a local CEO whose lunch order had been botched and he didn’t have a receipt.

Five minutes later, he and two friends are seen in a parked SUV laughing, eating and mugging for the camera.

Word got to the cops and soon all three were arrested for second degree burglary. Echeverria, the man prominently featured in the video, pled guilty and took a deal pursuant to which he will serve 30 days in jail and spend three years on probation.

Here’s an amateur vlog which includes clips from the original video:
