    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 ...

      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.

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...!

      A very significant problem here is that this is from the US, where all the notes (bills) look the same (or similar). I don't know of any other country like that. Every denomination is of a different colour and size in the non-US world.

    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."

  • @TheRoadWarrior
    @TheRoadWarrior Před 6 lety +23

    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.

      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
      @12mrcool1 Před 6 lety

    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.

  • @simeonkwong257
    @simeonkwong257 Před 6 lety +7

    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.

    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.

    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" .

    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..

"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 ...

    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.)

      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.

    So management came out and said "its ok sir."
    i was like "no its not shes going to lose $10 from her cashier roll.

    Your left collar is messed up, and there's a thread hanging off it that blows in the wind at the beginning. We can see your tie under the raised left side of your shirt collar when you're in the checkout. You remind me of a little boy wearing his first ill-fitting suit.

    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

    You might as well just reach into her drawer. Any sane cashier would say STOP before things get confusing enough for you to scam them.

  • @ericmathena
    @ericmathena Před 6 lety

    The only thing I would add is that I always say out loud the denomination of the bill being tendered. Then I always count back the bills to the customer to avoid any confusion.

    @MrCumminz Před 2 lety

    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.

    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!

    A cashier could get so intimidated by this that they will just do what the customer says. Don't give your power to a customer! You are in control. If the customer wants to complain to the manager let them complain. If a company would fire you over doing what's right then they are not worth working for.

    On one of my first ever checkouts by myself after training this old man comes in and hands me $15 and some change and so I give him his $1 and change back and then he tells me he gave me a $20 which he didn’t and so I call the manager over and she gives him $5 back and so me being 16 I didn’t want to argue and now my register was short. 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. Moral is never trust the customer and always call a manger because you don’t want to be blamed for anything you had control of

  • @georgiapoole2657

    I don’t understand 😂 can someone explain. So he was given change for a fifty, pocketed it, then gave back less money (they say $49 but they can’t be taking into account that she didn’t just exchange a fifty she gave him change so what she gave him had to be less than 49 in the first place) and then she gave back his fifty, and took the 49. then he gives her another fifty, and she gives him $100? Did he do this for only two dollars?

    The first give away warning is when the Guy starts the small talk..."How's your day going?" blah blah blah. Focus like a laser beam on your task and don't engage in small talk until the transaction is finished and complete. While ringing items up just focus on your task and ignore anything chatty cathy or craig is saying, again, until the transaction is over.

    Never once in all my years as a cashier, have I ever been tricked. Came very close so many times... but I always put the customer's cash on top of the drawer. I do not allow any changes after I enter the amount the customer handes me. I had one man give me a 10... after the transaction, he said he gave me a 20.. well, what do you know...the 10 was still on the drawer.

  • @tc1817
    @tc1817 Před 3 lety +1

    The easiest way to defeat this scam is to keep the customers money on top of the drawer until you make change. Then if they say "Oh I gave you a X" you can show them the very bill they used.

      Worked a while at the register in in a family business. We always put the money received in an extra bucket until the transaction was complete. Then sort it into the register. Often enough people forgot how much they handed over. This kept everyone (customer und us) sure how much was handed over.

    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
    @elainemarie9470 Před 6 lety +3

    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."

      She doesn’t remember that the 49+1 she counted was suppose to go back in the draw

  • @gordonjeff3164
    @gordonjeff3164 Před 6 lety

    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$
