There's nothing more violating than having your things taken from your own home, even if it's just on your front doorstep. For this reason, "porch pirates" are derided and often the topic of fearful conversation in neighborhood chats—and for a good reason.

They shared their story on Reddit's r/pettyrevenge sub, earning varied reactions from commenters who mostly applauded the move.
