Two crooks attempted to rob the wrong home Australia after seeing a 17-year-old post a photo of her grandmother's savings on Facebook. The teen was helping her 72-year-old mother count the cash at a home in Sydney last Thursday, when she decided to upload a picture of a pile of money.

Later that night, the two criminals showed up to the girl's mother's home in Bundanoon, armed with a knife and a wooden club. Some 75 miles away from the right home, the men threatened the girl's mother, who attempted to explain that her daughter no longer lived there.

Determined to make the trip worthwhile, the men took a small amount of money and some other property before fleeing. Investigators think they may have known the girl, but if that were the case, wouldn't they know she didn't live there anymore?
