Just because no one calls you on your nonsense doesn't mean they don't see what you are doing

The latest in shoplifting

This is a favorite scam for drug addicts and street people.  They stuff their pockets with the items they want. Act like they are shopping, stand in line.  Allow the cashier to ring up dummy items.  When the total due is tallied they pat their pockets and say "I forgot my wallet, I'll be right back."  Thus making it look like, on camera, they made a transaction.  They never return to purchase the items they acted like they were purchasing.

The next scenario is a favorite scam for white women, sometimes Fundy Christian women.  They purchase a long list of items.  They return to the store within a week.  They stuff the old shopping bag in their pocket with the receipt.  They walk through the store and pick up previously purchased items to match the receipt.  Stand in line to return stolen items acting like it is a legitimate return.
A - How do I know they are stealing?
B - How do I know they are Fundy Christian?

A - Inventory tracking.  stock on hand versus stock sold.
B - Employees knowing these woman by first name, because they attend the same church.

One woman had her grandson with her.  She pinched him to make him cry trying to create a distraction.   There is such a wealth of psychosis in the American populace.  I your humble servant am just shining light onto the dimly lit souls walking dead eyed amongst us.
