America’s most publicity-hungry sherriff got scammed:

Sheriff’s officials said Monday Arpaio had his credit card information stolen to the tune of $291.

Arpaio said someone used his Discover card last week to buy groceries in Chicago at a store called Jewel. He said he’s hasn’t been to Chicago in many years.

“I’m sure I didn’t make the purchase so it could’ve been done by, what do you call it, skimmers making copies, or through the Internet, many different ways,” Arpaio told CBS affiliate KPHO in Phoenix. “I don’t think I’m the only victim around, there’s many, many more I presume.”

Gee, ya think? Maybe if there were more guns out there…
