Since I began working at a grocery store, I have picked up numerous shoplifting tricks. I've picked up some knowledge through other shoplifters' blunders and other knowledge through experimentation.
1.Rule one is to never, ever, ever try to steal from a store you frequent. That is utterly foolish. Spend a little gas money if you truly want something that badly. Hey, it's preferable than purchasing the item you are going to hoist.
2.Rule two is to not appear tense or suspicious. Employees are not ignorant. They are aware that if you are tense, you are probably up to no good.
3.Rule Try to rob shops without being caught on camera. The safest course of action is this.
4. Rule Avoid being grumpy! One small bite at a time. Also, bring items that will fit in your pocket or handbag. Larger objects are more difficult to conceal.
5.Rule Avoid going to the same stores repeatedly. Make an effort to diversify your life. If you don't frequently visit the same location, you will be less likely to be discovered.
6Rule: Do not fall for SVS-branded cameras. They are forgeries! They just sit there doing nothing. Despite having a cable entering a wall, being plugged in, and having a red light on, they are nonetheless phoney. GUARANTEED!
7Rule: DO NOT steal in the presence of other customers. I've seen many of cases when a shoplifter was reported by a customer rather than an employee, and the customer's testimony is just as damning as the employee's.
8Rule. When someone witnesses you attempting to shoplift, they frequently begin to follow you. Place the items calmly back on any available shelf. As long as you haven't passed a register and begun to leave, they really can't catch you because, up until that point, you still may have had the intention of making a purchase. If they do catch you shoplifting before you leave, your case will probably not hold up in court. As a result, numerous lawyers have released numerous shoplifters. assuming they pick you up.Start by stating that you haven't had a chance to make a payment and that they cannot pick you up for theft until you do so, or leave the store. Just present yourself as an authority on the subject!
9RULE. When you start walking out the door and you see someone following you, then run for dear life. Most of the time you can get away. Make sure the licence plate is hidden if a getaway automobile is waiting for you. To be caught, all it takes is for someone to record the licence plate number.
Rule 10: Try to struggle your way out if you are ever caught trying to run, but BE CAREFUL! Don't even threaten to hurt the person attempting to catch you. The punishment changes from stealing to assault and robbery if you happen to scratch them, which could result in a higher fine or more jail time.
Rule 11: If you get caught, have someone wait with bail money.
Here are several methods for shoplifting.
Method 1: This is most likely the simplest approach. Ask a friend to accompany you shopping. Make him or her appear incredibly suspicious. An employee should focus on a person who is acting suspiciously. They'll soon have everyone in the shop observing him or her. Then you proceed to steal from wherever the goods are. Your friend leaves shortly after you do, feeling pleased with himself/herself for having successfully duped a store full of fools. You leave with whatever you wanted.
Method 2: If you're a lady, purchase a large purse. Pick the fortunate victim after emptying it. When there are shopping carts around, this works well. Put your purse in the area where kids are seated. In most cases, it is at the front of the basket. Right now, have your purse open. Browse everything you want in the store as you please. When you locate the object, pick it up, give it a quick glance, and then casually set it down as if you were placing it in the basket. However, place the object in your purse rather than the basket.
Method 3.approach is arguably the simplest to use—hit grocery stores. Most don't have much security at all. The only issue is that the majority of people believe that groceries are the only thing you can buy there. WRONG!! HBA, head over to the pricier neighbourhood (Health & Beauty Aids). Gold can be found there. Get everything, including Obsession Cologne and Advil. Why do I need 80 boxes of Advil, you wonder. Take one box, sell the rest to friends, or bring the items to a flea market, set up a booth, and start selling. Most Advil boxes cost between $8 and $10 each. Your $5 sale results in an immediate profit. However, take caution around the HBA area because that is typically where the security the case, if any!I've noticed a lot of businesses with only one camera in the HBA area and none in the grocery section. Therefore, simply pick up the items, place them in the basket, transport them to the grocery side, and take them! Cigarettes are another useful item to pilfer from grocery stores. Carton prices are approaching $20 per unit. So buy a few for yourself and sell them for $10 to $15 to your friends and relatives. That's a good profit. Alternatively, if you have a bad habit like that, keep them to yourself.
Method 4: Take it to your preferred grocery shop whenever you need to get film processed or prescriptions filled. Tell the clerk you will be doing extra shopping after receiving your prescription and/or film. After a brief tour of the shop, proceed out the door. Keeping an old receipt from a purchase is a smart idea. Carry the things with one hand while holding it with the other. In this manner, when they look at you and the receipt, they will assume that you paid for it.
Method 5: Visiting your favourite nursery or whoever delivers the supplies outside is a good way to receive free fertiliser, top soil, etc. Pay them a visit at 3 in the morning, and fill up your car or truck. The ideal method for doing this is to have someone else drive while you fill the tank. Jump in the back of the truck and urge your pal to leave if someone approaches you outside the business (such as a night stocker). Make sure your licence plate is hidden.
VERDICT: Shops aren't there for you anymore. They are there for their own benefit. Despite their claims to the contrary, the products are typically marked up by 200% or more. In certain cases, I have seen cologne marked up by 450%. This is reprehensible. Why should we spend that much money when we can obtain it for nothing? While many retailers may assert that shoplifting drives up costs, the Upper Division, which wants more added to their 6 and 7 figure yearly wages, is actually the cause of price hikes. Therefore, disregard that silly warning. Additionally, keep in mind Robin Hood's maxim to "take from the rich" (THEM) and "give to the poor" (YOU, even if you aren't poor, heh!).
