A New York Man's Heist Reigns Supreme: $325K in Frozen Snow Crabs Stolen from Worcester Warehouse
In a shocking turn of events, Romoy Forbes, 31, has found himself entangled in a web of deceit and greed, accused of orchestrating a string of high-stakes cargo thefts that have left law enforcement scrambling to unravel the tangled threads.
Forbes' alleged heist spree began with a daring daylight robbery at a Worcester warehouse, where he allegedly made off with 33,750 pounds of frozen snow crabs worth $325,000. Witnesses claim the Jamaican native posed as an employee for the carrier company, loading the precious cargo into his truck and making off with it before leaving the scene.
But Forbes' thieving ways didn't stop there. Just a month later, he allegedly struck again at a Ronkonkoma, New York warehouse, swiping approximately $433,830 worth of designer cologne. This time around, Forbes managed to evade detection by posing as an employee and sending a video of the stolen goods to his "customer for everything."
The third theft, which Forbes allegedly orchestrated in July 2025, saw him making off with blueberries worth $10,000 from a Winslow Junction, New Jersey warehouse. Using a co-conspirator's hacked email account, Forbes was able to book a cargo shipment and sell the goods for illicit profit.
As authorities close in on Forbes, they're painting a picture of a cunning thief who used his wits and technology to stay one step ahead of the law. But with charges of interstate transportation of stolen goods and conspiracy to transport stolen goods hanging over his head, Forbes' days of getting away scot-free may be numbered.
The FBI investigation into Forbes' alleged co-conspirators has also shed light on a nationwide network of cargo thieves operating under the radar. While Forbes remains at large, it's clear that he's part of a larger gang with a taste for high-stakes thievery and a penchant for staying one step ahead of justice.
As Forbes faces off against prosecutors in court, the question on everyone's mind is: how far will this cunning thief go to get his hands on the next big score?

! Forbes seems pretty clever, but also kinda reckless? Like, using his wits to stay one step ahead of the law can be smart, but it's also super dodgy.
. Anyway, I'm curious to see how this all plays out and if Forbes gets caught (and hopefully, the cargo thieves in this nationwide network do too)! 
I'm not surprised to see someone so young getting caught up in something like this. Like, what's going on with people these days? $325k worth of snow crabs and designer cologne just for the thrill of it all? 
It's crazy! I think Forbes was trying to cover his tracks with that video thingy he sent to the fake customer. But, idk, it seems like he got a bit too clever for himself 
. Anyway, at least he's not hurting anyone, but still... $10k worth of blueberries isn't exactly going unnoticed 
. I'm sure he'll be behind bars in no time 
.
this guy Romoy Forbes must've really been hungry 4 that $325k snow crab haul lol but i gotta ask, what's up wit all these high-stakes cargo thefts in NY? Is there a demand 4 designer cologne & blueberries out there or is he just trying to get rich quick? 
and btw, how does he keep getting away scot-free like that? Does he have some inside help or wut's his master plan? 
. But the thing that really gets me is how many people were involved in this scheme - a whole nationwide gang of cargo thieves 
. It's like, where do these guys get off? And now Forbes is looking at some serious prison time 
like who steals frozen seafood worth 325k lol Romoy Forbes must've had a serious addiction to blueberry muffins or something, 10k for those tiny little things is wild. and i gotta ask how does one get away with transporting designer cologne for millions? sounds like someone's got some connections 
. Forbes' days are numbered, and when he gets caught, he'll be singing a different tune, trust me 
.
.
. The tech-savviness of this guy is impressive, but I'm sure the FBI will catch up with him soon 
. It's also crazy how this reveals a whole network of cargo thieves out there - gotta keep an eye on those guys 
. What's next? Blueberry bandit? 
I can just imagine how frustrating it must be for those warehouses and businesses to deal with someone like Romoy Forbes who's willing to do whatever it takes to get their goods. He's clearly got a lot of nerve and a clever mind, but at what cost? The thought of all that money going up in smoke is just crazy 
. And poor guys from Winslow Junction, New Jersey... blueberries worth $10k! 
What must they be thinking?!? 
of cargo thefts! He's got skills for days, using fake IDs and tech to outsmart security systems. But you know what they say: when you're flying high, you're bound to come crashing down eventually 
.
. But if the FBI can crack that shell game, we might just catch Forbes and his crew off guard 
.
that Romoy Forbes has spun!
. The FBI investigation is making me curious about these other cargo thieves – are they all connected? And Forbes, bruh, you're on notice
