Kid Gets Credit Card in Dad's Name - Buys Hookers, Xbox 360; You Really Can't Make this Stuff Up

Oh the hilarious horror!
Apparently, a 13 year-old Texan who ordered a credit card in his Dad’s name, ordered two hookers from an escort agency, bought an Xbox 360 and played Halo 3 with said hookers in a hotel room has been convicted of fraud and given three year’s worth of community service.
Ralph Hardy from Newark, Texas confessed to ordering an extra credit card and subsequently took his friends on a $30,000 spending spree, and the credit card company involved said it was not liable for him getting a hold of the card because it is common practice to send them out providing that all security questions are answered correctly.
It does not say whether Ralph ordered the card via an automated system, or actually spoke with a customer service rep who could not tell the difference between a 13 year-old’s voice or a grown man.
Luckily the hookers were not charged in this case because according to the “escorts”: “the kids said they would rather play Xbox than get down to business.” Looks like some hookers do not adhere to the “13 is not an adult” rule, and were most likely willing to “do the deed” providing they were getting paid.
Thank goodness the boys did not want to have relations, because not only would the gals be charged with prostitution but sex molestation charges as well due to the kids being underage.
The narc in this case was hotel management, whom after delivering supplies of Dr Pepper, Fritos and Oreos had been asked by the kids “where they could score some chicks and were willing to pay”. Saying that they had just made a “big score at a “World of Warcraft” tournament and wanted to get some relaxation”, the clerk notified the police after realizing the boys ages.
Upon arrival to the hotel room, the police found $3,000 in cash, electronic gadgets, an Xbox 360, numerous games, and two hookers. Ralph told police that his father wouldn’t care because it was his birthday and his Dad has forgotten to get him a present. The father, who is a lawyer of all things, stated that while he had indeed been busy and did not buy him a present, he had planned on making it up to him by going on a surprise trip to Disneyland.
Apparently, the father is not only forgetful, but out of touch with what 13 year-old boys really like - loose women, video games, and Dr. Pepper.

According to follow-up research, this story is most likely a hoax.

The funniest part about this is what I left out of the post for length reasons:
"Asked why he ordered two escorts, Ralph said he thought it was the thing to do when you win a "World of Warcraft" tournament. They told the suspicious working girls they were people of restricted growth working with a traveling circus, and as State law does not allow those with disabilities to be discriminated against they had no right to refuse them.
The $1,000 a night girls sensing something up played "Halo" on the Xbox with the kids, instead of selling their sexual services."
And the punch line is……………………… "Ralph's ambition is to one day become a politician"
I do not lie!

High price doesn't always mean quality. Usualy it shows the payer is an impulse buyer, bad at bartering or both.

No problem here just a good lad wanting the good life in America.
Most people spend most of their time looking for the back of the line while some of us see what we want and go out and get it. Sure xbox and hookers maybe are not the best choice…still later in life he will have use for such MOXY.

Well if this is real, we have a couple problems 2- $1000.00 a night hookers in Texas? I can get high quality ones for half that. He bought a 360? No brains there with a spending limit he could of bought a PS3. And then invited the hookers to play Halo3? They didnt have a 360 so either sex was taking place while the other played or something. I mean after playing for 20 minutes and the rrod kicks in what else is there to do? Me personally, I would of went to a 5 star hotel, got one hot ass hooker, bought a ps3, GTA4 and beat the hookers up in the game.
