Update:-  It’s fake! this is just a publicity stunt from the Vodafone who recently released some "security footage" of the "theft" in action, which only served to immediately incite outrage in viewers of the clip, and a Vodafone New Zealand spokesperson admitted to The Australian that the company made up the whole thing.
