GameStop is the place you can go for video games and consoles, but according to D.C. police, it’s also a place to go buy stolen phones.

During a crime briefing yesterday with D.C. Police Chief Cathy Lanier and the city’s district commanders, Councilmember Tommy Wells (D-Ward 6), who chairs the D.C. Council’s Committee on Public Safety and the Judiciary, tweeted that two GameStop stores on Capitol Hill have been found to be selling hundreds of used cell phones—many of them potentially stolen from D.C. residents.

After the briefing, Lanier confirmed that GameStop was on MPD’s radar, but didn’t go into any more detail. “In today’s Crime Briefing, we discussed locations where people can sell used cell phones and the GameStop is one of those locations. The Metropolitan Police Department works closely with retailers and local businesses to ensure they are not unknowingly purchasing stolen items,” she said.

GameStop representatives did not respond to a quest for comment from us, but they did vehemently deny to WJLA that their stores buy and resell stolen phones.

Over the last year Lanier has pushed a number of measures to cut down on the theft of phones and other electronic gadgets, mostly by trying to remove the profit incentive. Last year she brokered an agreement with service providers that allows users to remotely disable their phones if they are stolen, and she has gone after businesses that she says allow for used phones to be traded in for cash.

A person with knowledge of yesterday’s crime briefing said that another interesting issue was brought up: what exactly is being done with these stolen phones, especially now that they can be bricked? D.C. police say they are being bought and sent out of the country, where they can be used on non-U.S. cell phone networks.
