Stop thinking peach is private. Stop thinking tumblr is private.

That girl with the hundred dollar lifts ? She could be undercover. Take this community with a pinch of salt and don’t EVER slip up on your privacy. Antis are pathetic, determined people who WILL devote hundreds of hours to their own petty agendas. That girl who gives you magnet tips? Undercover. The one with the heartbreaking ‘caught story 😨😥’ Undercover. Do not assume otherwise. Do not put yourself at risk for fucking clout and liftblr respect. If you have a real life friend who lifts that’s different. I see you all putting yourself at so much risk for friendships n I’m like😑

[damie-got-shoulders-deactivated]

Shein records the packaging process. I just wanted to let everyone know since i haven’t seen anyone say it yet on here <3

[damie-got-shoulders-deactivated]

I still haven’t learned how to reply to comments on tumblr yet, so this will have to do

1. How do you know this?

My friend tried saying some of the stuff wasn’t in the package and was asked something about the receipt i think and sent a screenshot/video of an employee packaging it or something like that.

2. What does this mean?

It’s probably safer to just say 🧬 when you’re sc@mm1ng this company (idk about other ones)

[damie-got-shoulders-deactivated]

This is the last reblog, promise lol. Anyways, he sent the screenshot <3 He didn’t respond and said he hasn’t heard from them since so i don’t think he got in trouble but he lost like, 50 bucks bc he never got the money back so yeah

Uncute Tip#8 (What will get you caught up)

So I decided to post this here in the main shoplifting tag as I felt it didn’t give anything away but some useful ass tips, and yall mofos should follow my private blog for more tips like this cause I ain’t posting any more here lol. 

Also it’s all messed up in the tag, just saw that. Sorry. It’s all organized and cute on my blog thingy.

So I named this an uncute tag simply because it’s not cute. I’ve been doing just fine without these special extra tools or tricks and haven’t been caught yet. Some things aren’t for everyone. I’ll list what will get you caught/addicted.

Magnet’s/Hooks: These nifty little tools are great for people who sell shoplifted goods for a living however these can get you in a  LOAD of shit.

For example:

I personally would never consider purchasing a magnet/hook, as this can lead to addictive behavior. Remember that shoplifting and all of this is a CRIME. It is not a job or hobby. IT’S NOTHING WRONG WITH HAVING THEM, I JUST WOULDN’T GET THEM, THATS ALL.

Being caught and having these on you will change your petty crime charges into something wayyyyy more serious. You can go from a fine to actual real real jail time.

You get stuck to metal objects. Now a good friend of mine on here told me about how she would get stuck to displays  when she had her magnets on her. Suspicious or nah?

They’re very loud, if you’re in a quiet store the only thing employee’s will hear is the sound of you detaching tags. no good.

BEING LOUD AND ABOUT: Have you just known someone who was loud about everything? Will in the world of being a criminal, being loud and just plain out there can ruin your life. Literally. You want to be so quiet and out of view that they forgot you ever came in the store.

Ways to ruin your stealth:

Dropping Items. Like this is actually really bad, don’t do this, keep steady hands.

Talking to EVERY employee. It’s okay to talk to one at the MOST. But don’t talk to every employee because they’ll just be on your back trying to continue a conversation with you.

Being and look awkward. This means being clumsy, and fidgeting, it’s really hard to conceal while fidgeting, i’ll tell you one thing.

Having a HUGE bag. Nothing more suspicious. Like you’ll knock things down and look awkward and causing you to speak to employee’s and you’ll be breaking all the rules listed here, lol.

Having BAD partners: It’s one thing to shoplift, but to shoplift with a bad partner is asking to be thrown in the slammer.

Effects of having a bad partner and how it Affects you:

They get caught, you get caught. Rather they snitch or you to are close together.

They’re obvious. From the moment they walk in they’re suspicious.

They’re loud and about. Always in the view, can’t shut up and act so proud.

They’re clueless. ”Are you going to steal that?!” Bad partner asks while lp is already prepared to tackle you.

They act like children. Following behind you, always asking what to do, chickening out.

 Will sell you out. They will cry, beg and plead to lp that you kidnapped them and made them shoplift.

Shoplifting EVERY DAY: This is a complete no no. I shouldn’t have to explain why.

What it will do to you and your well being:

It will become addictive. It will, no doubt about it. You’ll want to shoplift everyday, want to shoplift bigger things and get sloppy while at it.

You’ll become an even bigger cheap-stake. You’ll cry over paying for that 1$ bottle of soda because you could have stuffed it in your butthole, oooo nooo.

You’ll become recognized. The cameras will see you more often, entering the store and not buying a single thing if not shoplifting their store. They’ll start to wonder why certain items you picked up went missing and you’ll be the suspect. Next time you come in, BAM, RIGHT IN SLAMMER.

You’ll get lazy.I mentioned this but you will. You’ll want every thing to just come without a price and slip and then BAM, RIGHT IN THE SLAMMER.

You’ll get caught. You will, you didn’t listen to this beautiful post, and did all the things I said not to do and now look at you. In da slammer ye go.

Okay, guys that all I could think of for right now, I think I did good, as a lazy girl with bad grammar. I’d like to think I was very real in this post.

DNAing, or scamming!

-DNA: Did not arrive.

It’s really easy to DNA stuff online. Just email or live chat (i prefer livechat) the company and say that you never received the product, and that you were really excited to get it/disappointed it never came.

For Ämäzön, Wälmärt, Ültä, Tärgët, etc, it’s best to have an active account with actual purchases on there. Even after your scam, buy cheap things once in a while so you can scam again. I’ve done that with Tärgët & have scammed over $400 in items on the same account (with like 10 legitimate purchases).

[melolifts]

copied from a deactivated blog n had too many rbs:

“ if you find yourself unable to think about anything but your next lift, you can’t concentrate in school or at work because you’re thinking about lifting, or it feels impossible to go a few days without grabbing something, anything, even if it isn’t something you actually want—it’s time to take a break. let me say that again. if lifting has become your whole life, you need to take a break. right now. log out of liftblr, pick up a new hobby. take a break until you can walk in and out of a store that has nothing you would ever use and not feel the itch to lift “just because you can” ” 

I get such a rush from Iifting n I need to remember this. it hasn’t become as consuming as described above, but if I don’t keep myself in check if defo could. stay safe out there bros

[fckcapitalism-liftshit]

Semi embarrassing story time. I'm gonna tell this so y'all learn from my mistakes.

I miss lifting so much rn!! So I was at a store picking up something I needed and the was a Tárgët next store. I thought to myself "I'll go in t@rgët and see if they sell scrubs and just buy some because my job reimburses me"

I never go to târgët because I've heard too much about their lp and I think of them as an expensive store. But mainly I don't wanna go somewhere I can't steal. So I'm looking for scrubs and see some cute underwear. I'm bending down looking at them and I'm like "I can conceal these really easily just right here" so I ball them up and stick them in my pocket while I'm browsing. I don't see any obvious security tags on them. That's my mistake! I know nothing about tårgët security because I don't ever go there!!

So they don't have any scrubs so I'm just leaving after asking an employee if they carry them. I walk out w a big family w lots of kids just in case.

The alarms didn't go off but when I got back to my car and saw that rfid, I was so worried. And I saw someone wearing a shirt that said security walking away from my car. That tag was literally sewn to the underwear so you couldn't see the rfid easily but I should have noticed.

I'm also thinking about security towers in tårgët and wondering if they loudly beep or if they just tell lp there's been a theft?? Maybe that's silly.

Anyway I'm out of practice and that was sloppy.

[liftfern]

As a previous target employee who was very very very close with the security is like to add that all target brand clothing has rfids in them which are used by the clothing employees to be able to find them in the store using a device. They do not trigger the alarms and security has nothing to do with rfids!

[fckcapitalism-liftshit]

Good info y'all

[liftylofty]

I’m not saying rob W@lmart blind... but now would be a great time to do it!! Apparently their new checkout system is easier for lifting and they’re scaling back apprehensions. Of course, use your judgement and don’t be stupid, but for w@almart and all other stores, it’s a great time to l1ft.

info on my booster bag

hey liftblr!

if you remember this post i made a little while back, you might be aware that i recently purchased a “faraday bag” meant for protecting your mobile phone/tablet (product linked here) from radio signals used to extract/plant data. my intent was to use it as a booster bag, and i figured i would give you all a little update on how that’s worked out for me, since a few people seem interested & i think it could help other lifters!

first things first, here are the dimensions of the bag:

(the bag itself, with a regular hook tag for scale)

(here it is when it’s folded—it’s about 1.5” thick. i fold it and usually shove it down the back of my jeans so it rests against my back. paired with a loose sweater over it, it’s actually pretty hard to spot.)

you can fit a REALLY decent amount of tags inside this thing, though it does get harder to fold the more are inside. i would estimate, while folded, it can comfortably fit 10-15 tags without getting too bulky. if you stuffed the thing with disregard for bulkiness, i’d approximate you could easily fit 40-50+ tags inside, maybe more. i got the tablet size* for 70 USD, and while it is pricey, i’m really pleased!

*they also sell a cell phone size for 50 USD, which is a good deal smaller, but i’m sure you could still fit a few tags inside, and it would also be easier to conceal on-person.

i’ve tested it at the following stores, and been able to pass through the entrance* (with tags inside) incident free:

- although not a store, it worked on my iphone, lol. putting it inside makes it unable for calls or texts to get through, and when you bring the phone out, there are a few seconds before the phone “pings” with a tower that you can see it still reads “no cellular service available.”

- forever 21

- pacsun

- lululemon

- sephora**

- urban outfitters

- h&m**

- aerie

- aeropostale

- victoria’s secret/PINK***

*while i can’t concretely verify that all these stores actually had towers/working towers at that, i know for certain that the towers at urban outfitters worked, as well as the ones at VS/PINK. i did my testing at a relatively upscale mall, so i would assume all stores would be adequately prepared with LP measures like working towers.

**i did not conceal tags directly from these stores, but the tags i had on my person from other stores did not create an incident at these places.

***this one is a bit of a special case. i walked into the VS side of the store with tags concealed in my booster bag and the towers did NOT go off—i know for a fact they were working, however, because a woman beeped on her way out (and subsequently, an SA searched her bag). however, upon leaving the PINK side of the store with tags from PINK/VS inside my bag, i did beep. more on this down below.

here are the types of tags i’ve found success with concealing in my bag & walking out with:

top left: clam tag from UO

top right: ink tag from F21/pacsun

bottom left: hook tag from lululemon

bottom right: hook tag from A&F

now, here are the tags that may have given me a problem:

i believe all of these are from VS/PINK, though i’m not entirely certain on the tag with the wire. these tags were the ones i added to my bag while inside of the VS/PINK, and subsequentially the ones that must have made me beep. upon entering a kate spade store with the same assortment of tags in my bag, i also beeped on both entry and exit.

my lifter friend (who was there at the time) and i tried to brainstorm reasons why these tags might have made me beep. note that we made sure i hadn’t left any tags/hidden RFIDs in my purse or on the merchandise i had concealed on my person. here’s what we were able to come up with (keep in mind that neither of us know jack shit about the science behind radio signals and whatnot):

- it’s possible that one or more of the tags in the picture above uses a frequency that was not blocked by the bag? i believe this would be possible if one of the tags used a radio frequency <600MHz or >5 GHZ. just gonna put it out there that i have no ideas what those numbers mean, but on the website, that‘s the range of frequencies the bag claims to block. the same case could be made with other kinds of signals the website lists that have some kind of range associated with them.

- again, just putting it out there that i have NO IDEA how radio signals or otherwise work, but maybe the amount of tags in my bag created a combined signal strength that overwhelmed the bag? i don’t even know if signals can do that, but if they can that might be an explanation. after i started beeping, we went back to my lifter friend’s car and ditched all of the tags inside the bag before continuing (cautiously) lifting. for the rest of the day, we were careful to ditch tags as frequently as possible to limit the number inside the bag, just in case this theory had any connection to why i beeped.

that’s all the information i can give you about my bag. overall, i’m SUPER pleased with how it’s working out for me—i’ve been able to steal upwards of $1300 worth of merchandise with it so far, so the cost of the bag was money well-spent. even with the rouge beep at VS, i would say i have confidence in the bag for use while lifting. although i do still have to stay vigilant whenever i pass through towers, you should ALWAYS be alert, booster bag or not, when you leave a store, and never assume that you won’t beep.

i hope this post could help some people out—and if anyone has some kind of knowledge that could concretely explain the beeping incident at VS/PINK, it would be much appreciated (for me, and anyone else who uses any kind of booster bag).

happy lifting :)

[heavenlylifter]

it’s good to see an informative post about booster bags when practically none exist!☺️✨ from what i understand of the way tags work (not a huge amount, admittedly), tags can’t overcome a faraday cage like a booster bag with their combined frequency strength. this is because they all work independently, so their frequencies can’t be combined to create some sort of super frequency to get through the bag. like you said, it seems most likely that one of the tags you took with you was just very strong and overwhelmed the capabilities of the bag. hope this makes sense, it took me a few tries to describe it right😅😅✨

A tip from an ex-magician to my lifting babies ♡

That has got to be the most ridiculous title for myself. Anyway. GOOGLE MAGIC TRICKS. LEARN SLEIGHT OF HAND THROUGH MAGIC TUTORIALS.

Guys I was OBSESSED with magic as a kid and I practiced it until I was a junior in high school. You know how easily I took to lifting? Ridiculously. I’ve fucking concealed with employees staring me in the eye during my first ever haul. They can’t tell shit. And they had no idea. There’s tricks you can learn that are INVALUABLE. Of course don’t go running up to lp and concealing in front of them right away. I’ve been playing with sleight of hand and illusions for years. You’d be amazed how much better you can get at lifting if you learn tricks similar to it.

Penny behind the ear? Oh no. I pulled a fucking nAKED PALLETTE OUT OF YOUR DAMN ASS HOW’S THAT FOR A TRICK.

Now go learn from the pros my precious babies ilysm ❤❤❤❤

[niftyshiftylifty]

To add to this: look up Apollo Robbins and the sort of stuff he does: he explains diverted attention really well, and basically how to direct others’ gazes to particular areas while doing something else. Of course, Robbins uses it for stage effects, but if you take the basic premise and get creative with it and apply it to lifting… you’re all set. Practice this shit in the bathroom mirror at home and stuff, too, with items around the same size and weight as stuff you’re lifting. (If you don’t have those items yet, use small packets, or lipglosses or pens or whathaveyou.)   And get very, very good at not looking at your hand while you’re doing stuff (including removing and even finding RFID tags, as well as concealing). Ideally you want your attention– and anyone else’s– focussed on what you’re doing with your other hand, which should be looking at a product/price/etc.

This is very good advice. I’ve also used the same philosophies as professional pickpockets (they use sleight of hand, same as magicians) and been very successful with it.
