Subject: Newest scam. Ask for your receipt and read it. GET A RECEIPT AND CHECK IT BEFORE LEAVING THE STORE You may be GETTING RIPPED OFF.!!!!! A LOT OF SHOPS NOW ASK IF YOU NEED A RECEIPT ????? LEAVES IT WIDE OPEN DOESN’T IT / Keep the Receipt This is worth reading if shopping at stores.... They do not automatically hand you a receipt anymore if the sale is under $30. You must ask for it… CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS BEFORE LEAVING THE CHECK-OUT An associate bought a heap of stuff the other day while on holidaying in Melbourne (over $450), & when he glanced at his receipt as the cashier was handing him the bags, he saw cash out of $20. He told her he didnt request any cash and to delete it. She said hed have to take the $20 because she couldnt delete it. He told her to call a supervisor. Supervisor came and said hed have to take it. He said NO Bloody way! Because taking the $20 would be a cash advance against his Credit Card and he wasnt paying interest on a cash advance!!!!! If they couldnt delete it then they would have to delete the whole order. So the supervisor had the cashier delete the whole order and re-scan everything! The second time he looked at the electronic pad before he pinned in his number and again cash-back of $20 popped up. At that point he told the cashier and she deleted it. The total then came out right The cashier said that the Electronic Pad must be defective. Obviously the cashier knew the electronic pad was defective because she NEVER offered him any cash after either of the transactions. Can you imagine how many people went through before him and by the end of her shift how much money she pocketed? His wife went into a Cxxxs Warehouse last week. She had her items rung up by the cashier. The cashier hurried her along and didnt give her a receipt..She asked the cashier for the receipt and the cashier seemed annoyed but gave it to her. She didnt look at her receipt until later that night when back at their Hotel. The receipt showed that she had asked for $20 cash. SHE DID NOT ASK FOR ANY CASH, NOR WAS SHE GIVEN IT! So she called Cxxxs who investigated but could not see that the cashier pocketed the money. They then spoke with a friend who works for one of the banks; they told them that this was a new scam that was bound to escalate. The cashier will key in that you asked for cash and then hand it to one of her friends when they next come through the check-out queue. This is NOT limited to Cxxxs; they are just one of the largest retailers to have the most incidents. I wonder how many seniors have been, or will be, stung by this one????? To make matters worse .... THIS SCAM CAN BE DONE ANYWHERE, AT ANY RETAIL OR WHOLESALE LOCATION!!! IT COULD HAPPEN ANYWHERE. CHECK YOUR RECEIPT BEFORE LEAVING THE CHECK-OUT... ...CHECK YOUR RECEIPT!!!!! Ive since seen people do just that…..SO NOW ILL START! PASS THIS ON TO YOUR FRIENDS, KIDS, LOVED ONES - let’s not get ripped off.
