When most of us think about shoplifting, we think about young kids goofing around at the mall who then make a series of poor choices — like taking a necklace from a kiosk or grabbing a pair of sunglasses from a display without paying — hoping not to be noticed. And while this kind of shoplifting is still going on today, some might argue that other types of shoplifting are even more nefarious in nature.

In one other type of theft, the alleged perpetrator goes on what appears to be a normal, everyday shopping trip, but when the time comes to check out, s/he uses either a fictitious credit card or one that s/he stole from someone else. Not only is this considered shoplifting, but it’s also identity theft, which is also a severe crime.

And, in still a third form of shoplifting, the alleged perpetrator grabs two items of a similar sort: for this argument, we’ll say they are dog beds. One dog bed is much nicer, plusher, and better made, and costs $109, while the other dog bed is smaller, cheaply manufactured, and only costs $19.99. The perpetrator swaps the tags of the items to pay far, far less for the much more valuable item. When this person cleverly chooses to go to the self-checkout lane, s/he simply scans the now far less expensive dog bed, and a lot of the time, they get away with it — but not always.
