- Cops confronting thieves on department store rampages.
We bring you exclusive access to the police blitz on shoplifters who stop at nothing to take every expensive item they can get their hands on.
As an employee of a little shop, it’s very satisfying to see the thieves being caught. Today I caught three of them and I’m not even trained to do it but it’s so frustrating to be taken as stupid
Yeah, same here. I'm not too worried about the shop owner. He is very very rich but a nice guy all the same. What I hate is the fact that shoplifters often sink so low as to betray your trust. Often they have given me a friendly hello only for me to catch them stealing. It's disrespectful to the staff. So yes, I love catching them lol.
I caught one last job I had before retirement this past year, couldn't catch other two, though I tried. Last one, another customer heard me yelling and pictures of make and color of car, and license plate. But I'm thinking plate , was stolen. Police hadn't found him yet.
@@dianekruger5977 it might come back to haunt them. They never really know if they got away with it. Especially with cameras and security.
Well, only problem is that now you gotta catch the whole school. Did you hear the little girl? Says her whole school is doing it.
I love australians "youre under arrest" 2 seconds later "no worries" hahaha
Arrested for shop lifting. LOL!
Very good. Carry on.
I would 1000% watch an entire season of an American version of this show.
Remember in America shoplifting in called entitlement.
@@jlcork I think you mean, IS CALLED, Corkren.
@Harry Inkpot Somebody please translate this to English. Thank you.
@Harry Inkpot If watch same thing?!🤔 You be looking at blank screen they do Sod all?!🤔
@John Broadhurst You should check out the Gas Station Encounters! I found that really good!
"You've made a mistake? It's ok, don't worry". Damn Australia police are nice. Try that in America!
Police are even nicer in Middle Eastern Countries, A male Police officer will not physically touch a female. ONLY female officers are permitted to do that.
In the USA Male Police beat up women, and some have raped them in a Court house and stripped them naked. There is something seriously wrong with Policing in the USA.
It is the Police there that are out of control.
Mostly manipulated and brain-washed by Government propaganda, and they believe their own BS.
well that's cus the woman thieves in America are more violent and have no problem scratching and kicking and fighting the male officers, you don't see that kinda of behavior from middle east women thieves
also the civil/equal rights movement is HUGE in America, way bigger than it is in those countries, you women want to be treated EQUALLY? then that means you get the same treatment and punishment as men,
that street goes BOTH ways, you can't just have all the same rights as men but still act as though you get to be treated like dainty creatures... Liberals always have a double standard
They were playing to the camera. Different story when the camera leaves.
ocularisabyssus well the citizens aren’t acting out like here in the US
We need that in England I’m only 12 and I been in custody twice I only got out cuz I’m a minor
"Look we've got your daughter here and shes made a mistake she's stuffed up" 😂😂 that's fucking great.
I'm amazed at how nice these officers are.
James Rice im amazed the scumbags are so cooperative
@@mikek4610 It's reverse psychology. Treat them with respect and they will go willingly.
@@electronicfarts5105 nah its because they're in Australia
That's because they KNOW it's recorded. Otherwise they behave a whole lot different.........! And right they are!
@@peterdegaccio5592 spot on m there not so nice
The real crime here is that a box of huggies would hold almost $5000 worth of shit from the cosmetic department
TheGruffOgre would severely impinge on their bragging rights.
the people in Melbourne are so polite, you ever see "the North American shoplifter" the screaming, the theatrics LOL
you haven't seen bogans or abbos yet lol
Nah some abbos are nice as but the bogans are crazy and annoying
Yes you do lol
@Marko San 😂😂😂
Yes - We are always polite & well mannered 😊
My mom would've whooped my ass into the next century if she caught wind of me stealing.
Went shopping with my aunt when I was like 10 maybe younger, stole a pack of bubbles. She found them when we got home and had me take a ride in the back of a cop car all the way to the police station. To say I was shitting bricks was an understatement. 😂😂
Mine too
I’ll say one thing about these cops, they’re incredibly polite.
True. Too polite
It’s because they are on camera
Most are not Cops. Just cocky low paid security guards
Wouldn’t work with American Criminals

As a former LEO I Moonlighted at Dept Stores in the late 70s and early 80s and I find it sad that Shoplifting has gotten SO bad that today stores actually have a "Containment Cell" inside for shoplifters. Our society seems to think that just because it's not under lock and key that it's OK to take it and just walk off.. Disgusting.
The reason society is the it is today it's because people (politicians,CEO's of huge Corporations,and so on and so fourth even everyday people have gotten too damn GREEDY.
No, not greedy,,,LAZY. And, with the way the Left tells their stooges "They have everything and you have nothing so it's THEIR fault. That starts the LAZY rolling and soon the trouble starts. We no longer have leaders who say. "Work for what you want and it will come"
No use for lazy people None. True Very True indeed because far too many people wanna just sit on thier asses all day.And the MAIN reason for people's Laziness is the Government making everything COMPUTERIZED/MACHINIZED.Which contributes to the fact of people becoming Lazy and useless.Not to mention giving them Shittier paygrades.AND Allowing the damn IMMIGRANTS to take our Jobs that belong to us.As far as for these so called leaders aren't leaders AT ALL They're really just OPPRESSORS.Like the rest of the Elitists are.
@@GABRIELADAWSON
That's not an excuse. It's not like shoplifters are stealing to feed their staving families. They steal lux items like jewelry, electronics, clothing, etc.
I pay for things I want out of my wages. I have no pity at all.
uel786 Miss Me With That Bullshit Let’s see if one day heaven forbid you should lose your job let’s see how you’ll handle things then.Also people who have Jobs steal as I discussed before these CEO’s and Politicians have Jobs and have Far more money than most people now there’s no excuse for them doing what they do...You’re just Another Sheeple who defends these Wealthy Cocksuckers SMGDH 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️.
12 month ban from the store? Seriously? I would give them a lifetime ban. I wouldn’t want them inside my store ever again.
I thought so too, but then I realized at the prices they charge, if the culprit comes back and pays for 1 item, it covers 10 stolen ones.
Our store used to give lifetime bans to shoplifters.
However it changed - not sure if by court ruling or by company PR - because if a murder can get free after 10 years, why would shoplifting be punished longer? It is dumb and not comparable, but that is it..
I used to work in store security and one thing you'll rarely hear on vids like this is employees steal at least as much as customers.
yeah, its est store workers steal more. but store workers love to point the finger at the customer.
@jledward1 problem is, i used to be a bit of a toe rag, and i grew up, it took me a fair few yrs, and a prison term for theft, and now i havent stole or broke the law for a decade. people do change there ways now and then, In the UK your record gets wiped for theft and small crimes after 6-7 yrs, more for worse crimes. but when i was a toe rag, i knew the punishments were to easy, and i did look at it that way. I think you should have to do proper hard work labour, for punishment, not just picking up litter, but real hard labour, for a decent period of time.
I worked at Apple's flagship store in NYC for a couple months, you wouldnt believe how much these people were stealing.
This one guy who worked stock always stole MacBook/Air and sold them on IG. This other girl helped her cousin steal a bunch of shit on a launch day.
Wew lad, either Apple doesn't give a shit or LP is retarded.
@@shineayandrews1869 haven't you get tempted to do the same? Cus I will. It's not a big deal for their loss as they are earning as much as a gazillion tons of money annually so it's no big deal if we steal 😋😋😋
@@bollockchopmitchell3281 AT LEAST THEY'RE WORKING !
Man that woman has turned layering into an art form!
She was just extra chilly
i wouldn’t have guessed that she had that much on. kind of impressive
Aussies can curse you out and it still sounds dignified. Love their accent!
We Australians don't have an accent. It's all you damn foreigners that do.
A variant of British accent with roots in convict settlers.
"Can I pay for them now?"
That's just sad. Maybe they should've thought about paying when they were still inside the store.
A pair of socks for $17.95??? There is a theft right there
Down in tassie socks can be as much as $59 for a pair believe it or not and i seen a pair of undies for $99 and they weren't fancy or anything just regular undies. shits crazy
a frigin pair of decent socks that dont get a hole in a month are like $20, i agree ridiculous. [pack of socks]
@@ziahn5367 My socks usually last me 3 months and they only cost $7 a pack.
yah but socks should last longer than 3 months......
Vadim Rokhlenko it is expensive here. My husband has never been outside of Australia, and he is blown away by how cheap it is abroad, compared to Australia. I go home every two years, and I buy all of our clothes there. I refuse to pay a fortune for undies and socks, etc!
Considering that all of us lose (at the very minimum) $500+ every year by paying more for items because of shoplifters, I really respect a chain like Meyers who are so proactive.
Are you serious? 😆😆😆 you would pay $1000s less if those corporations weren't so greedy.
Tax upon tax @ every aspect from raw material to finished product. Even taxes on taxes & transport as well (fuel tax is almost 50%).
Then there are the taxes you pay, including income tax.

The cop lady is is good. I like her. Good going.

Yes, she seems very polite and professional. Before watching this video, I just always thought of Australia as being one of the most honest and safest of all England's provinces... err.. I mean "countries of the world".
Trebor Ironwolfe yep Australia land of convicts 😂😂😂😂

Then don't buy them
i knew a guy when i was in the army stole a pk of smokes from the Px bad conduct discharge 1 months pay apox . $650.00 now miky Ds wont hire him ruined his life
i think he got 30 days ccf to boot all for a pk of smokes dam i would have gave him mine
Not really, they're probably not sweat shop. We're so used to sweat shop prices that anything not dirt cheap is considered expensive.
There's a shop I go to that has good quality thermal socks for $5 a pair. I'm a canny shopper.
Looking at the girl, caught shoplifting and calling her father, reminds me about my own daughter. When she was around 14 she was caught doing the same. We had to go to court for her and it really makes me sad for the parents. I feel sorry for her, because she did something stupid and hope she learned a lesson, but to me as a parent it is such a shame and feeling of helplessness if your own kid is stealing. My daughter at that time didn't need it. She had everything she needed at home, but it was never enough.
she is probably a better person now
I MIGHT or MIGHT NOT have shoplifted before. In reply, if you ever wonder, it's because of the thrill of possibly getting caught. You also get something free. In other words, they do it because it's fun and excitement and because most of the time, you can get away with it. On the side note, I wonder how many BILLIONS or might I even say TRILLIONS of dollars politicians have stolen but a lot of them are still doing fine and maybe even looked up? When the top is corrupted, you rot all the bottom. That's why in the U.S., you vote for a pedo, now you got a ton of folks trying to groom kids. See how that works?
@@tg5476
Probably not,,
when the parent takes the pain, weak parents are the most un-loving creatures
Grow a backbone and disapline your rotten brats
Stealing isn't cute, cool or anything honorable- if your kid is doing this it's because the parents are cowards and the kids are testing to see if you are worth listening to, if not they don't see why they should let you guide them
$4700. in makeup and toiletries...who's robbing who? lol
The people caught on camera stealing.
you have the point
i cant justify stealing but sometime i wonder a fingersized odored water bottle costing several hundreds..
im super surprised he didn't get arrested tbh 4700 is a stupid amount. In the US it's a felony to steal 500-1000 dollars worth of stuff.
Chinese rule " you try you buy".
Chinese lady: " I tried and I didn't buy...hahahahah"
The interrogating lady officer was a serious but true, gentle and respectful human being..she could have been nasty but wasn't! She's a trooper and a definite plus for that industry!
She a ugly bitch....😂😂😂😂😂😂...
they were man handling that poor man about to going into labor.
He was waaaay past his due date and should have stayed home.

Probably triplets from the look of it.
These cops are very professional. I assure you, here in NY, it wouldn't go down like this.

I have to admt that Australia makes some pretty good TV programes.
***** i live in Australia but i would rather watch american tv shows compared to this
***** ACA is crap fear mongering programming
Sizxer Henrī Kopurikku I live in Philadelphia (USA)....I find your comment interesting and I agree that I'd rather watch American shows about illegal activities, etc. But what's YOUR reason for what you said? I want to see if we agree, so I'm asking you first. Thanks.
well TBH there isnt really a lot of australian tv show *interesting ones* i watch american tv shows because america is a lot bigger then aus and a lot more things happen there ive watched stuff from jails, mysteries, news ect i just find it more interesting
Have you seen the Australian version of the Today Show?
This is so awesome to watch:) wish that the police all over the world would actually do this as well.
8:28 “I buy”
😂 😂
Why the fuck are the police acting as private security for multi-million dollar chain stores.
+jimmyjazz240 because that 500 worth of perfume is offset out of legitimate customers aka your pocket.
Salt Factory Don't be so naive. That $500 perfume is worth no more than $20 dollars. And if the shops want to protect themselves, hire more security. The cops have got better things to do.
+jimmyjazz240 thats not the point though, the point is that these idiots are taking whats not theirs
+jimmyjazz240 I've bought that cologne before it's price around 60 a bottle
LMAO,,you don't know much about security do you? Thieves have gotten so violent and abusive as well as being armed that it is safer and better to have someone that KNOWS how to handle CRIMINALs. Why are you so angry about the Police being there anyway,,,have YOU been stealing too?
I stole something from myer 42 years ago. I went to court and my father (who had excellent community stabding) gave a character reference for me and I got off lightly. They mean what they say. I never stole again. My job depends on a clean police record and it's just not worth the fallout to save a few bucks.
Joseph Lennonova Your Dad isn't around to save you anymore! I'm gonna make sure the police and your employer find out about you!
Charles Carter hahaha shut man you're killing me😂😂😂
Julian C I gotta do it bro! This cunning, criminal genius, mastermind, has been living a lie for 42 yrs! It's my duty to expose him! Lol.
Charles Carter He said he already got caught and went to court. He's done his time.
@Gayle Elizabeth yawn
I worked a summer in a department store and finally saw a shopper with odd, big bags and looking around too much. I was all excited to call store security, who after a description said the “shopper” was part of the security staff. At least I was right that it wasn’t a regular shopper.
There's something so enjoyable about watching someone getting caught stealing
I am glad they let the teenager off with a warning and a phone call to Dad. Years ago I gave into peer pressure, from the "in girl group" and shoplifted from Myers. Got caught, they threatened to call the Police, I was in tears, then they said ok just the school, I would have been expelled, then came down to, well we will just ring your parents. I was inconsolable - that was the worst option as this was 42 years ago, and parents punished children severely in those days. In the end they let me go with a stern warning. I have never stolen again and forever grateful for the second chance.
"Can I pay for it now?"
HELL NO!
I mean they could do it that way so the store could sales and not arrest. Arrest cost tax dollar. Sitting in a cell being guard is not free you know. Then they run finger scanner and other procedure.
Official T.N You could also just bill the offender for any cost related to the arrest.
I mean did you hear that fine price...
Yeah, coz the cops carry eftpos machines with them!
“What do you have in the pocket of your jacket?”
“I have this..you mean lipstick?”

Lol reminds me of when I had my hair braided...Those store detectives were like flies round shit even though I was straight up!
I remember taking my old man into marks and Spencer to show him and he couldn't believe his eyes! They were everywhere and we had a right laugh winding them up.
Miss you dad rip
They could have played you by stopping you and dragging you back into the store in front of everyone regardless if you had or hadn't stolen anything.
I've worked retail security and we call that catch "On Suspicion". We don't have to prove anything was taken only the intent that someone was about to take. Then you'd both get a lifetime ban from the store.
Now I'm laughing and both of you are cursing me for the rest of your lives for something you brought on yourselves.
Ever asked yourself why your services were no longer required??
If you think getting pulled aside by a self important over inflated shop assistant would make me curse you "for the rest of my life" then your ego is clearly out of control..
Fuck...we would have took the piss out of you so hard its you who'd have been left cursing 😃
@KitCloudkickerUK No your just a dickweed trying to exert what shitty little authority you have 😆😒
@@Kit_Bearwait a minute, isn't that also called "false imprisonment"?
$17.95 for socks is not cheap. Australia is expensive.
Myer & David Jones are expensive stores.
We do have Kmart ect: 3 pairs for $6. Only wankers buy socks for $17:95.
That guy didn't buy them, but still a wanker.
If you try shop at the remote areas you will be surprised how expensive things are compare to the city stores.
That's the real crime
I personally have never seen socks that expensive. I think because I go straight to the cheaper section lol
Those sheep herders, crop growers and miners have an inflated economy. No native industries at all.
these guys go after shoplifters more serious then our country goes after murders’ and trader’s lol
"ur under arrest for stealing " and the thief response as always "can I pay it now?".
Shoplifting is trivial stealing.
Alphonso you belong in jail
That "payment" ship has sailed...without you on it! :-P
At least they offered to pay.
HAHA! I wonder if i've ever been a suspect, I circle around the shop all the time. I can never make up my mind what to buy sometimes.
Yeah sure. Chinese are you?
I often wondered the same about me too! Plus I’m a little OCD and messy displays drive me bonkers so sometimes I spend time organizing the chaos in order to try to find what I may want.

I remember going shopping with a friend (we worked as nurses), something I REALLY don't like doing. So I was getting impatient and kept asking when the hell she would be finished. Her voice sounded funny but eventually she came out and brought a dress to the cashier. When we got in the car, she was LAUGHING! Turns out she was switching tags from a high price tag to a discount item. I fairly screamed at her because she KNEW that I would get taken in with her as complicit. I couldn't believe it. She made a good salary, she didn't NEED the dress, and she had put MY ass on the line with her! And this was FUNNY to her! At the end of it she apologized but I knew she was NOT sincere. Are people just INSANE these days or is it evil!?
Not to mention she was a nurse. A professional. How would a shop lifting record look fro either of you. Beyond stupid. Stay the heck away from her.
Hope you dropped her acquaintance like a hot rock. This is not a friend. A friend will not involve another friend in their crime and place that other person's professional standing and livelihood in extreme jeopardy.
Wouldn’t call it evil lol
@@dondamon4669 I'm afraid that says more about you.

Risk getting a permanent felony record and never getting a decent job ever again over some socks, totally worth the risk right?
Um you're not gonna get a "felony record" for stealing some socks🙄
Employers don't check for records, most of them.

I’m so thrilled your catching these worthless thieves !!!
"I didn't want to pay" is the most idiotic excuse ever in my opinion.

Joey Boyle To say "I don't want to" is not an attempt to make an excuse. It is the reason. Get some education, mate.
I will.
It's probably the only honest thing that they say.
how? its the most honest fucking reason given lol
cant get caught when you have instructive videos like these ;)
So glad Myer is doing this. I helps all consumers.
Myer need to employ more staff & open more registers. A few times I felt like walking out without paying
I had been shoplifting for MANY years. The last time did it (2010) and was taken to the back room, I was left alone with my thoughts for a few minutes. This was a store I REALLY liked coming to [and actually BUYING things], so I was scared of being arrested &/or banned [Which they had EVERY right to do.] The LPO came back in & said they were going to let me go. If I chose to come back to the store, I would be watched very closely. I was near tears and thanked them for their generosity. That was the last time I ever did that. Thank You, Lord, for freeing me from that! Now, whenever I feel the itch to do that again, I watch shoplifting videos, & the itch disappears. ~ 9:53 What is a magistrate?

Don’t over charge that’s stealing aswell greed will always attract theft hello karma
Lmao truth
If you don't like the price nobody is forcing you to buy it

I feel like some of the shoplifters can't afford or work up an allowance just to have a very small piece of the world we live in.
Too bad. I have no sympathy
$4,700 of cosmetics - RETAIL price. Actual loss to the store would be about $8.72...lol

I love how disarming the Aussie accent is.
Awesome video!! They should do a version where they go to the head office of all these companies and start arresting people for theft.
When I was 10yo I stole a pack of Big League Chew chewing gum and the grocery store manager hemmed me up. Being from a small town he just threw my bike in the back of his truck and asked me where do you live. I took that guy down every neighborhood road I knew before we got to my house just to prolong the inevitable. He knocked on the door and told my mom the deal and that was that. Needless to say I got my butt torn up for that little episode but I learned my lesson. Later on around age 15 our class got to watch the court room proceedings and I saw a judge give a girl 30 days in jail for shoplifting and that really reinforced the fact I wanted nothing to do with stealing.
I'm Swedish. I went to Australia ...
The problem it's Australia have big problem Whit Chains and Asians people .... But Aussie people the are wonderful 🤗
$4,700 for cosmetics? That's the real crime😱😱
Frank, the store probably paid $150.oo for all that stuff.
@John Edwards
Only an idiot would pay $250.oo. for lipstick and lotion.
@John Edwards Yep its daylight robbery and no consequences for their actions either !
You Aussies have a bad case of envy, if the items are priced to high for your tastes you don't get to steal them.
How they "under arrest"if they don't have a badge or handcuffs.I would've ran the sec they came up to me these people wack🤣
Made in Australia: I don't know about today, but back in the 90s, you would buy 2 cinema tickets, enter the cinema, 1 person come back out with 2 stubs and bring in another friend in with it, and repeat until golden brown and crispy... It use to take about 1 full second to take off the colour tags off clothes from Myer and David Jones (if you knew how of course)... There weren't many or no cameras back in those days... Walk in the change rooms with 2 items of clothing, wear it under your walk in clothes and put one back on the shelf, jackets valued at thousands of dollars were cool items when you were 14-17 years old... Take a left shoe from the display of one sports store and a right shoe from another store, no problem, just make sure it's the right size but it was not uncommon for kids to have shoes with a 1 size difference (Air max or Air Jordans anyone?)... Then there were guys who did the '100 miles and runnin', name taken from the NWA song where you snatch and run, it would definitely help if you had a group of guys waiting down the road if you were chased... Even ice cream from shops with the freezers that had a slide glass on top (they still use them today), all you had to do was stick your arm in and slip it in your sleeve... The same with pens from newsagents, wear the appropriate jacket and you could slip pens totaling in the hundreds per visit (my pencil case was beautiful and probably valued more than all the stationary of every student at school combined - there were over 1000 students) coupled with Mad magazines that you will place under your zipped up jacket (because it was a flat item), held via the front of your jeans... Of course, this was back in the 90s and I do not condone this sort of behaviour, but once upon a time was a fun time for a 14-17 year old... Do not do stupid shit when you reach 18 people because it's not worth it, having said that, I stopped all this before I reached 18 and fortunately never got caught because I dressed well (at the cost of adrenaline!) and worked smart... You can comment what you want, like I said, I do not condone this behaviour and this was just a young kid who had an experience and I have been a law abiding citizen since I turned 18 back in 1995... At least i didn't deal drugs, now that is bad.
"were cool items when you were 14-17 years old", so at 18 you became "adult" overnight earning money by yourself. What a yarn spinner!
The whole thing is getting out of hand.
What stores will eventually do is, organize to have an entrance system into the store that requires an ID.
The ID card will be issued only to members of society that are in good standing with no criminal records, with heavy emphasis on shop lifting.
They'll be forced to do this, because businesses that serve the public, simply can not afford to stay in business if shoplifting is semi legalized.
$200 dollar a day habit on Ice? More like pies.
first offence my arse! first time caught more like it.
A friend of mine walked right out of a sporting goods store with a canoe on his shoulders. The staff even held the doors open for him. He never got caught. Who the hell would steal a canoe, one would ask. LOL
Excellent Police Force...Hats off. God knows when this type of administration implement to our country.

US should adopt the arrest and fine procedure. the fine helps pay for the security.
No the fine goes to the victims of crime fund.
At least in South Australia it does anyway. The "security," be it good, bad or terrible is the responsibility of the shop/franchise/business owner.
"You've made a mistake" What a feeble, pc society we now live in!
“She was wearing about 2 bras” uh huh yeah makes sense
Connah bourton the woman wears 2 everything and now she’s slim down afte4 been strip off the stolen goods. 🤪😂😳🤭🥴🤣😂😅😁😆
some girls wear two if they got tiny boobs lol
These shoplifters are getting off too easy. Jail and prison time should be served also.
Edit: And they should be banned from the store they stole from for life.
$299 fine.. that explains why they're too nice.
They need to steal some shirts that fit !
