Stop. You're being detained. >> Do you want to let your Do you want to have your mom take your stuff? >> I don't know. >> Entitled shoplifters love the nothing to see here routine until a cop steps in and the whole act collapses into a loud dramatic meltdown. Suddenly, it's excuses, attitude, and fake outrage like they're the victim. And that's exactly why this is when shoplifterss pretend nothing happened. >> Works a lot, so she's not really there. So basically, >> do you want to let your Do you want to have your mom take your stuff? >> Okay. >> Store management reports that 18-year-old employee Elizabeth has basically been running her own DIY rewards program, activating gift cards without paying since August.

Frequent flyer miles, but illegal. >> When did this start happening? Maybe like a month or two months ago maybe. But it wasn't like an everyday thing. >> That's when they started lowering my pain and stuff. >> Okay. >> How many times a day would you do this? >> Probably like three. Three times with the cards.

She's been doing it for a few months now. I guess she also admitted to taking cash as well. Elizabeth gives her mom her phone passcode and instructions on who to call to help bail her out, like handing over the mission brief in a spy movie. >> Due to the dollar amount, it does constitute a felony. >> So, we don't have discretion on it.
