Wow. So, someone in management or loss prevention didn't notice a MAJOR increase in returns?!?! This happened at a store I once managed. A cashier, who I trusted dearly, was watching managers do refunds and writing down our pass codes. When I went on vacation for a week, I got a call from our home office. They told me my store was having an unusual high amount of refunds all of a sudden. Once I got back to work, I reviewed our security taped and watched her, she would ring up a customer, make 2 copies of their receipt and keep one, them once they left, she would return the entire cash purchase and pocket the money. Well, I had to keep it to myself that I had caught her, and I was told when to schedule her to work again, and that the police would be coming to talk to her. Sure enough. The police pulled up, and she called me to the front, she said " look, the police are walking in here ! I wonder what's going on?!?!?" I just looked at her and said " I guess we are about to find out ". After the police reviewed the tapes with her she burst out crying begging them not to arrest her. I had to walk away.
@theway3346 ай бұрын
Oh I see, so that is how that this guy could have done it perhaps. 2 copies of receipts, and issue a refund to the "wrong", e.g. the cashier's own credit card etc., as opposed to actually refunding it to customer's card etc., and customer wouldn't know because they weren't out of any money, only store was out of proceeds/revenue from sale. That is interesting. Thanks for explaining that possible scenario, was wondering how this story was "possible" in a sense. Thanks.

@J.Crooner well, 2mill isn't much different them 1mill when it's retail theft in only 2 weeks. That's insane. I had a friend that was a cleptomanic when she was young. She stole something everywhere she went. Something small most often. Like shampoo. Then batteries. Them lipstick. Here and there. I hated it because she did it when I was with her. She got caught at the mall once while I was with her. Big drama. The store manager could tell I had no knowledge of it. She watched the cameras back and seen me fighting with my friend to put that stuff back. So the cops didn't charge me. I was working at a nice clothing store at the time and was promoted to manager at 18 so I was terrified it would cost me that job. It paid very well too for an 18 year old. She only got worse after that. I tried to get her help but nothing worked. I ended up only hanging out with her in places where theft was less possible. I lost touched with her for a few years. Met up with her one day at a big outdoor sale convention. I didn't even think about all the stealing she did. We were about 25 or so at the time. We headed to out cars and she opened her truck and started emptying her pockets. Earings, bracelets, perfume, lotions, watches and even a small purse like thing. I was so pissed. I yelled at her a just left. She called me saying she doesn't even think about me being there and she just does it. Well I broke off contact after that. But just a year ago, she was on the news. She stole 89k from her employer from a bridal store. She did that in 8mths. Her house was searched too. She had over 120k in retail stuff. Everything from pricey towels, purses, jewelry and credit cards. She will be in prison for 14 years. Crazy things is she is highly educated and went through 6 years of med school and is technically an M.D or was. Lol ugh I couldn't believe how much money she took and why she felt she needed to do it

@@marikiemarie7622 😳That's one hell of a story and the fact that she went to med school and had become a MD is very troubling but not surprising either if I'm being honest. It's so many people out here who literally have gifts and are given things they truly don't deserve. It's more than clear that your so called friend just didn't care and was willing to put your future in jeopardy for her own selfish greed to take advantage of people. It's sad but i'm glad you saw the light and realized it was not worth it because in the end you can't save everybody unfortunately no matter how disappointing it becomes.

Unless of course the entire chain of them up to a certain level were in on it. Eventually the highest returns are going to stand out by corporate accounting so it's game over from there as soon as they notice how many there were in that amount time to the same card. It used to take weeks for stuff like that to even be reviewed but now its all run by software. Smart software that can probably flag those three issues at once. By the end of the week or even day if the refunds were for that much. But never in my life would I have ever do thought that walmart sold anything that costed over 10 k. Definitely not no 87k.or wait maybe they just rung up a blank serial code and entered the amount manually. Then had a diff guy that in on do the refund. That's hella bold. Too bold.

Kroger just don't give a fuck because they make money regardless. Nobody really cares about anything but their own jobs around here.

When you work in retail you know alot more then the average person does, sometimes your job is to help other workers, and you get to see what they do. I personally have never once stolen from my work, but I could see someone like this pulling this off, especially if they worked as a cashier, or worked with returns, its easy to take advantage of, but unlike this guy you don't do that cause the realization is they know every single thing that goes on in that store.
