Garner, NC officials offer next-gen console of choice to stop vandal |

And you thought we had problem with spam... the town of Garner, North Carolina has been plagued with someone spamming "Ghost" all over buildings and street signs, reports the Charlotte Observer. It's ticked off local government officials, it's a pain trying to clean up after this guy, whoever he/she is, they can't tell who the heck's doing this vandalism the first place.The town's Board of Aldermen have passed a resolution, which besides ordering the graffiti removed within 48 hours, are offering a reward of US$ 1,000 for the perp. And if the perp happens to be a juvenile, they sweeten the pot with either US$ 500, or an Xbox 360, or a PS3, or a Wii.
(Now you know why we placed this story under Deals... although, er, it's kinda akin to "deals" as in the ones suspects make with prosecutors when they want to turn state's evidence.)
All kidding aside, these town officials do take their civic pride very seriously. On the other hand, we kinda pity the workload they face: imagine the flood of tips - some of which will turn out to be duds - they'll have to sort through for that kind of reward.

these vandalizers can actually be responsible for such crimes and its also their wallet that pays for the reward if they use bail money. clever isn't it?
anyways, i will not waste money to buy paint and spray on walls, i would rather save it to buy more games or consoles.
