Brilliant college student Sam has the perfect credit card scam...until his crew robs the wrong man. Now they have two weeks to repay ruthless gangster Marcel US$2 million or they will be dead. Sam and his team devise a scheme to clear their debt
by heading to Miami to poach enough cash and merchandise. But they come up short. So Sam and his gang set their sights on a daring jewellery heist that could make them hugely wealthy for life.
