Directly of an OOO? No. People finding out I wasn't home and knew I had cool stuff? Yes - including the audacity to try to steal a motocross bike stored in my basement. Its just a good thing that security is tiiiight.... But OOO, people blabbing in misc. company, etc - Its really all the same: Bad people are everywhere, and will try to take advantage of a situation based on the information they have.
