A person steals cell phones from people going into a movie theater (no one out side will see them for a couple hours). He then uses the cell phone to call the victim's family, claiming that the victim was kidnapped, and orders that the ransom be paid very soon (it must be paid before the cell phone's owner comes out of the theater, revealing the kidnapping to be fake).
