When I worked at wal-mart a number of years ago they had a big meeting to inform us of a "scam" that was going around, basically it happens like this:
You go into a store. Make it obvious that you're stealing shit. Start shoving CD's and wristwatches into a backpack. Once you know you've attracted attention, you RUN LIKE HELL out the front door.
Security and manager chase after you, accuse you of stealing. They search your backpack.....
Only to discover its empty! It was all sleight-of-hand and you never actually took anything.
Now you can sue the pants off the company for falsely accusing you of stealing.

Does that actually work? Seems to me that if you're stealing things, manager has probably cause to search you and accuse you of stealing.
