Battery alchemy?

And now, for a "true" story.................

Guy goes out, HIS BATTERY IS GONE!!!

Next day, note on the door, says "I'm sorry I took your battery, it was an emergency. Here's money for a new battery, and some tickets to a concert you might like."

So the guy gets a new battery, gets his girl, cleans up, goes to the concert. Comes home, his ENTIRE HOUSE HAS BEEN CLEANED OUT BY THE SAME PEOPLE!!
