Loss Prevention Magic, Change Raise Scam

In this video the Magic of Frank Davis & Company, with Loss Prevention Magic, shows how magic technique can be used to defraud retailers using a technique call the "change raise scam".

[@daBEAGLE1017]

Even after explaining the techniques and showing it, i was confused. I guess thats how a daydreaming person gets had. Great video.

Never, Never, Never let a customer take money from you while they are handing you another stack of bills! This is a very old, but very common, scam.

I was a cashier in college. Another reason you never hold the drawer open is that someone can reach into your money tray.

How ever did you come up with that addition to this conversation?

[@joyace9674]

You are right about that

[@brendarose442]

What I teach my cashier (trainees) is to verbally confirm EVERYTHING. "That will be $2.43." "Out of $5.00?" (Now open drawer) "Your change is $2.57" (Close drawer) This helps them remember what bills they took in when someone says they gave a different denomination. Also I want them to be very suspicious of big bills used to pay for small amounts. Double check the change back AND have the customer count it back as well. Once the drawer is opened the cx is not allowed to change the bill or add change. "I'm sorry I am not permitted to do that once the drawer is opened." And once it's closed, it's closed. No reopening for change etc. When in doubt call up the manager on duty. Mind you I followed all these rules and was still scammed out of $20 last month somehow. Just when you think you have it figured out ...

[@saynotohookups]

If you work in the USA your bills are designed to look so much alike that you have to look closely at the numbers. I live in Canada our bills are colored and look different from the others: $1 is a gold coin, $2 is a silver coin with a gold circle in the middle, $5 is blue, $10 is purple, $20 is green, $50 is red, $100 is brown.

[@patburnsent]

@@saynotohookups OK so he would give her a red and she would give him a green, 2 purples, a blue and 2 silvers. Then he would say "I thought I gave you a blue". She would say "No, you gave me a red". He would say "Oh I don't want all these colors can you just take them along with this red and give me back a brown." Makes sense to me...!

[@el4242]

They're just smooth criminals. It really is like magic the way they trick people. So don't be too hard on yourself, some of them are pro scammers.

[@TheRoadWarrior]

The retail stores I worked for, we never allowed big bills for anything less than $20. Also once the drawer was closed it was closed. It only was opened again for another sale. If they thought we short changed them they would fill out a form and we would call them if we found extra at shifts end.

[@marstondavis]

I watched a guy pull that crap in a store and the guy that was next in line smacked the con man right behind the ear. The thief got up and left all of his money and wobbled out of the store. Turns out the cashier was our hero's sister. Justice!

Wasn't properly trained about this nor did I expect it to happen. Also, never ever has this came close to happening to me in my 4-year experience as a cashier, so I never expected anything short of a good-hearted customer. Not giving change isn't stressed enough at my store and I was just trying to be a nice guy. Long story short, I costed my company $288. Thank goodness I'm more valuable as an employee than $288 loss (I would like to hope anyway), though! Lesson learned. STRESS TO EMPLOYEES MORE TO NOT GIVE CHANGE.

It's a training video. You can see the 2nd clerk smirk at a cameraman she probably knows.

[@simeonkwong257]

One reason cashiers like me don’t give out change during the transaction is because it’s hard to keep track. We wait for all the money to be presented before we type in the amount being paid. After transaction has been completed will we make a second transaction to make change. Make it a habit to close drawer each and every single time after you receive money from customer or give back change to customer.

[@flj7]

Easy tactic that a lot of places use- don't add/ adjust anything after the drawer is opened. Like these women did, drawer open, give change, close drawer. If they ask about it or want to change something, "sorry, store policy. I can only open my drawer for transactions, we can't make change."

[@12mrcool1]

Stranger Danger it wasn’t too late. The whole scam is you giving him the 100. Basically when you give him the 50 and he gives you the original change back it’s like it never happened. Now you gotta do a new transaction with a different bill. Instead he’s giving the original change back+extra to make it 100 and asks for a 100. There’s no issue until he asks for a 100. He buys a 2 dollar drink. He gives 50, she gives 48. She’s 2 up. She gives 50 back. He’s 48 up. He gives 48+2+50(100),she gives him a 100. He’s still 48 up since that transaction was evened out. No real problem until that point

[@12mrcool1]

I guess I should say, he did trick her into thinking she needed 50. She should’ve just said she needed the 48 then. Then went even and he gave the 5 and she gave him the 3 bucks.

This happened to me today. (Before all of this, it had been a very busy day, and I was the only cashier for the past 3 hours with little help, so I was mentally drained.) Dude came in asking about mask prices, then picks some out. I ring them up and the total is $5.51, and he hands me a $100 bill. As I’m putting it in the register, he says “Actually I don’t want to break it, I’ll give you some change.” Then I hand him the $100 back and he says “You can just give me the $94” and I forgot I handed him back the $100 so I get out $94 in change, and he gives me 49 cents, which I now see was a trick to make me feel like he had paid. Then he leaves and I realized wtf happened, and was abt to chase him but he was already in his car and speeding off.

[@jen2804]

Lol savage

[@-AnyWho]

i saw what he did right away, lol. you need to be hearing impaired like me and close your drawer right away then turn around and be like ... "what? oh sorry, did you want something?" problem is cashiers don't want to close there drawer if they got to go back in for something. if your confident that you gave the right change (you should be at that point) then need to close first and figure out everything else after ... if someone dont like the way you handle your drawer then tell them they can take it up with the head cashier or manager ...

[@justcary]

The best thing to do is not take back the change and start over.. Just make it a policy that once the transaction is made, it can't be changed.. If you want to return it then you must do it at the return and exchange center.. . If someone is doing this, its a scam.. Yet a great job on the part of the cashier.. Also some will put away part of the money and claim you shortchanged them in order to get you to give more money to them.. If that is the case then call a manager tell them the problem ask them to do a check on your register to see if he was correct and if no overage, no shortchange.. Crook is busted..

I would have told him sorry the sale is done, bye. You'd have to be a push over to fall for this. I damn sure wouldn't have done a refund just because he didn't want all that change. Why you carrying $50 bills around if you don't want change.

[@GOHST13ly]

I did the cash on the register thing when I was a cashier. It saved me from being scammed once. The problem is that too often other cashiers are too interested in getting customers done with to care and get on your case for taking precautions. It happened to me. Also,too many cashiers are too lazy to care. They are just doing the cashier thing as a way to get a better job, so they just get sloppy. If they get fired for having a till vount that is off, they do not care. They will either get chewed out ( Oh well) or fired ( Who cares? It is just a cashier job.)

[@redmed10]

Happened to me once. Stopped it in mid flow because I just got suspicious of the scammer. Sensed he was trying to confuse and distract me though wasn't sure at the time how but it was through the speed and apparently reasonable requests being made and trying to put all the pressure on me.

[@Avignon94]

In the example, she does say "out of 50" and he says "yeah"

[@saynotohookups]

Exactly! So he knew what he was paying and then afterwards says no I didn't mean to pay with that. I would say no way. If he didn't want change he should have paid with something smaller.

Where I live, if customer uses a $50, it’s run through an accu scanner ON *camera*. And we also put the original bill paid with (by customer) stacked upside in the open register until the change is handed to customer. (Verses slipping it under the drawer fast, if a $50/$100).

[@sdafasdfasdfsda]

If you are confused by the transaction with the first girl think of it like this: 1) He pays for the drink with a $50 and gets his change = TRANSACTION DONE, THEY ARE EVEN 2) He then gives her $50 in small bills and ask for a single $50 back, which she does = TRANSACTION DONE, THEY ARE EVEN Here's where the scam took place 3) He then gives her $50 but asks for $100 back = SCAM. She got confused because she never put the $50 from step 2 back in her drawer. The guy essentially laid "HIS MONEY" ($50) on top of "NOT HIS MONEY" ($50) and said "give me a $100 bill for that" .

[@ChillRichard]

Thank you so much for this comment cause I was so confused.. thinking of it as stages of transactions helped me understand The only part I don’t get is why in step 2 does he have to have another set in small bills? Can’t he just do the scam with the change she gave him

[@sdafasdfasdfsda]

@@ChillRichard I'm not sure but it's probably to make sure there are a lot of $1 bills in the money he gave her making his request of "I don't need all this change" seem valid whereas the change that he originally got from her may have been just 2 $20's, a $5 and a couple of $1's. Also, making her count a stack of bills redirects her concentration to counting instead of thinking "what he's asking me to do doesn't add up".

So management came out and said "its ok sir." i was like "no its not shes going to lose $10 from her cashier roll. "we've taken note, have a nice day sir."

[@res1492]

[@markf.]

The final $49 she had in her hands was the STORE'S money (she had given him back his original $50). But he acts like he just gave her that $49 (which he did, but it was in exchange for the $50 she had given back to him). It would be like this: I say to you, "Would you give me a $50 bill in exchange for five $10 bills?" You agree and give me your $50 bill. I then give you my five $10 bills, but then immediately hand you the $50 bill back and say, "Hey, with the $50 I just gave you, here's another $50, so could you give me $100?" Same principle.

One of the problem is most cashiers are not used to work with cash. It just happened to me today! I had a total of 5.50, I gave the cashier 6 single dollar bills, then I remembered I had some quarters in my pocket(1.50) I hand them to the cashier and I asked for two of the single dollar bills back, she said yes, but continued working the register, when the receipt came out, she looked at the quarters in one hand and the bunch of bills on the other, paused for a minute and did what the register marked, handed me over nervously .50c change. I saw the confusion on her face, I decided it was not worth saying anything, I took the fifty cents, she smiled because she didn’t understand what just happened. I just said “never mind is fine” .I lost two dollars in this incident, no big deal. But hopefully she will realize one day what happened

My work generally requires that I market, explain, and showcase the details of the products, as well as explain their warranties and our store return policies. Today, I had someone pay give me 3 $20s for a device that costed $50. I gave him a $10 and then he asked some question about whether or not he could return the device to our store if it didn’t work. To which I answered that he could return it within the 1-week return period, so long as he had the receipt. He then proceeded to ask me for another $10, and implied that I had forgot to give him change. I told him that I was sure that I had already given the $10, to which he agreed and seemed apologetic. I believed it to be an earnest mistake at the time and dismissed it as the customer simply being forgetful. Later, I realized the possibility that it could’ve been an intentional scam attempt. Even if it was accidental, which it probably was, it still could’ve costed the store $10 had I been careless!

The think I see is they put the money into the cash register. Put the bill on top of the drawer. then count up the the change out. then count the change back to the person. Put the bill they gave you into the drawer close the drawer. That way they can’t argue about what bill they gave you. Most cashiers don’t count the change back to the customer.

Also same day another dud pays with a $20 and then tells me he payed with a $50. Once he realized I wasn’t falling for it he basically played it off as a simple misunderstanding but I knew and he knew he was trying to pull a fast one.

What's funny about this video is the lady said "Out of $50?" and then when he said "I thought I gave you a $5" she said "Naw you gave me a $50" and she still manages to give him $50 back. Lol. But then again.. that was just an example of what is happening. I can see where she got confused at cause she had all that money in her hand and he manipulated her into thinking she didn't give him the correct change back. Most people will think he's getting $100 back but he's only getting $50 plus the item. When she had the $49 + $1 + $50 that's where she got confused at cause she's thinking addition and it's $100, so he asks for $100, not knowing he basically gave everything back to her from what she gave him, which in this case $50. She was trying to do 2 transaction at once and got confused. So he's basically getting the Red Bull, which was $2.44, plus the $50.

[@elainemarie9470]

I've had the converse happen to me a few times. That is, I gave the cashier a larger bill and they'd put it into the drawer & close it, then claim I'd given them a smaller note. After this was done for the third time, I would say clearly what denomination I was handing to them, from then on out. I was giving them the benefit of the doubt they had mistaken what bill I'd given them. However, at least one of them helped themselves to my change owed to me. If they failed to check, I'd request a manager, and suddenly full recall came back. I usually used $20 notes, so they weren't big deals. Another circumstance was my getting overcharged at a fast food place next to where I lived. Now, I dislike junk food, since I know the toxic substances they are made of, and I find the flavor to be fake & chemical tasting. Once in awhile, exhaustion would hit me, from a long day as a social worker with massive caseloads helping the saddest people in life. The guy would tell me at the window a higher price than it was supposed to be. Like in all transactions, I'd be polite, but firm. I would itemize the bill verbally, which was easy, since I always ordered the same burger and only one. Then he'd correct himself. But, then not give me all of my change back. LOL. Eventually, I ended up asking another cashier about it, and she said he's the manager's son, and he was known to do this tactic. I stopped going, a good deterrent for me to avoid the plastic "food."

Second cashier jus like me with the speed fr 😭

[@bigrobeyouknow6089]

Damn second one been at Lowe’s for a while she shut that down hard

[@MrCanada420mma]

had some greaser try this on my back when i was working at a gas station/carwash. i hadn't heard of this scam at the time but i caught on right away what he was trying to do, i paid close attention and kept it all even. had to warn my boss about that guy.

[@brunnermetalwear]

But what are the safety measures for a customer being scammed by the cashier? How does a customer keep themselves from being scammed?

[@thereddrumsarerunning8689]

Nope Nope Nope I never had to go through this scam. In fact we cashiers saw a shit head doing this to a new cashier and stopped it. If the were any doubt, we would do a tray count, of course this would tick off the scammer and so it would reveal we were in the clear.

[@michaela6796]

Gets the pulse pumping to watch this guy...lol

[@dunkvondoom2392]

If he didn't give her fake money when he took his 50 back I don't understand anything that happened here...i try & I try again bit I don't understand how much or how he just came off

[@purrjunior]

Slim Dunk'n store gave him $150 he gave $100

[@highwaybound1502]

That's why it works. Lol

[@PS2Damon]

just remember he pocketed the 50 at 2:09, then he gets a 100 dollar bill

[@robotpizza]

Don’t forget, he also received a free RedBull too

[@pjunior3692]

He has $99 total Buys a Red Bull(2.44) with a 50bill gets back 47.56 and keeps it in his pocket His other pocket has 49 and want to exchange for a 50bill. Take the 50 from her and give her the 49 She count 49 he give another 1 He says I got ANOTHER 50 (same bill he took back from her for the change she’s counting ) She doesn’t remember that the 49+1 she counted was suppose to go back in the draw He quickly ask for 100 bill instead and get it He still hasn’t touch 47.56 that’s in his other pocket 147.56 walking out of the store

[@mrg2176]

Camera man had seizure at start of vid.

[@derploud2287]

You in charge of your cash draw. Focus on your math of money

[@rickroberts1198]

Been screwed by cashier. They stick the money in the drawer before giving change.

[@kevinrod1635]

How about check for counterfeit bills before making any change?

[@BlaubartMT]

Better yet, say "Oops, sorry about that. Lemme get that change back. Thanks. Here's your $2.56 in change. Have a nice day!"

[@ThatGuy-mu2rr]

If I caught some slick rick doing this, he would be talking to the police in a small room.

[@Carl6801force]

My brain just exploded..

[@gordonjeff3164]

He started with 100 dollars , the 50$ he originally paid with and the 49$ + 1$ he uses to switch with the change. Once he receives 47.56 in change he pockets that switches it with 49$ and asks to check to make sure he didn’t give her a 5$, she then returns the 50$ bill to him while she counts the money he switch the change with , esentially being 49$!he then adds another 1$ to make it 50 and also the original 50$ bill to make it 100 and asks for a 100$ bill, all while keeping the change of 47.56 in his pocket so he makes a profit of 47.56$ plus the free drink , he walks away with a red bull and 147.56$ after only going to the store with 100$

[@K.Spade7902]

I began my shift at Michael's and my first customer tried to give me $100 for a small purchase. I couldn't give her change. It was ridiculous! She and her bf held up the line! It could have been a scam. I don't know for sure.

[@MedTHCOntario]

If they have monitored cameras, this would've been caught. Aside from that @2:03 she watches him pocket an extra stack of bills but doesn't really care of think anything of it. This cashiers don't get paid enough to stop thieves, although loss prevention does start at the front lines.

[@godschild9932]

I KNOW THIS IS AN ACT BUT IN REAL LIFE THIS GOES ON AN GOD SEE IT ALL THEY GET BY BUT NOT AWAY

[@SkyfalconTin]

I work as a cashier at a market just like this for 8 years now, and I seen this scam before.

[@MrMarko4]

Was that even his own hand outside store at beginning ? 😂

[@healthy2202]

Why did the background showing (Lowes) sign/building behind you keep shaking/ Its freaking me out man. Stop it. (was it green screen?) Love your work dude. thanks. Your doing a great thing.

[@milleniallgt9715]

Now I see why a lot of places are starting to not accept cash lol.

[@malakjudah4080]

Boooo!!...U were supposed to try a different Lowes. That way we could see if it would've worked!

[@ismokekillz]

I'm pretty sure they didn't make it known until they were finished

[@isaiahkaulaity9467]

This is one reason why places don't accept big bills for small purchases.

[@FRANKGETSUM-jy7hx]

hey frank you neva gonna get rich screwin with red bulls one at a time - take the test for the post office, semperfi !

[@heene]

I've never heard of this chain of shops. I would be very wary if a customer was being chatty while I was getting out his change.

[@shirleyfisher8313]

Also noticed cashiers all put large bill directly under cash drawer, I was taught to leave Bill on register until transaction complete they in just as closing drawer after transaction is completed!

[@saynotohookups]

I was taught that too. That way you know what the customer gave you.

[@charlesben9104]

IN SHORT, SHE GAVE ALL HIS MONEY BACK IN DIFFERENT BILLS, WHILE HE POCKETED $50 MAKING IT SEEM LIKE HE RETURNED IT WHEN IN REALITY SHAVE GAVE IT BACK TO HIM BUT IN DIFFERENT BILLS UNDER THE GUISE OF CHANGE.

[@davidspin5353]

I was a cashier at Grocery store and would do this to customers all the time, hell it paid my way thru Law school....

[@rexluminus9867]

👏Brilliant ! *** watch It the second time, you'll get it. 🐖😀Wow! Thank you.

[@johncamp7679]

You can catch cashiers scamming too. If you see pennies stacked up by the drawer they are counting how much the drawer is over. It’s one thing at the end of the night to be short, but I would probably fire you if it’s over.
