hii! do you have any tips for lifting at malls?
I may have already made a post about this a while ago, but it must be hard to find so here's all the info I have!
It's just like regular lifting with a few exceptions.
Although you shouldn't be taking out what you got until you get home/into your car anyways, it's important to remember the mall has general security cameras everywhere, even in the parking garage at most places.
Use knowledge you normally would have for lifting anyways, like using structured bags that don't look too big, suspicious, or generally attract attention. Dress like you belong. If you're young, don't go with your friends. All the normal stuff.
If you have a car, you can dump there in between every 2-3 stores so that *if* you got caught somehow, you wouldn't be caught with like 11 stores worth of items on you.
If you don't have a car, keep your hauls small. you're gonna have to bring it all home somehow.
Don't get attached to your lifting bag and keep valuables and identifying info (wallet, phone, keys, ID, etc) on your person rather than in your bag. if LP grabs on to your bag, it's better that you just shed it and run and let them keep your bag and whatever was in it.
Remember malls have mall security, so if an sa sees you concealing you're no longer safe in the whole mall. you will get caught if you keep lifting because security will find you.
And of course, I cannot stress this enough, KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!!! KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!! please read up on your rights and think about how you can use them. Learn what civilians have rights to do because security counts as citizens!! learn what your rights are when the police are involved!! you can never know too much!
