Police arrest 6 suspects over massive gold bar theft in July

They had all the info for a perfect inside job.

They knew they had bought it the day before and where they were going to have it the next day.

Key piece of information is missing: did they recover the gold?! I'm guessing not...

What the heck were the victims up to!? They bought the gold and then tried to sell it all for cash -- the next day. Unless there was a one day surge in the spot price, they would have lost on the commissions and other fees. And with that amount, we're talking BIG money.

Why didn't they enlist security? Why didn't they try to accompany the "police" to the "station." Too many questions.

surely even the dumbest person would of burnt the uniforms?

@Jeff - maybe laundering cash? You make good points
