Most criminals are not clever. I had a girlfriend whose house was broken into; the thieves stole an xbox, an air conditioner, various electronics, etc. After she reported them stolen, sure enough, the serial numbers showed up at a pawn shop, the pawn shop had taken the ID of the sellers down, and warrants were issued. She got her stuff back and the thieves went to jail. Most criminals wouldn't be doing what they're doing anyway if they were clever or did a modicum of research on what they can actually get away with.
