The Plain Jane Shoplifter
This is who you should aspire to be when going lifting. No neon striped hair, no Mohawks or a zillion piercings, no heavy makeup, no crazy outfits or anything blingy! If you consider yourself very attractive this is especially important for you. Most LP are men and who do you think they’ll start ogling when they’re bored? You! Got a nice ass you love to show off? That’s great. Again, most LP are men and men love looking at women. Cover your assets! No cleavage! As for tattoos, I don’t care how proud you are of all your ink. Cover that sh-t up! A bored LP + a zoom cam loves nothing more than a chick covered in tats! Dress like you’re going to a very conservative church or interviewing for the job of a principal or teacher at a stuffy private school. Plain and polished. The two P’s!! If you don’t wear glasses, lift a pair of fakes at icing. Shoulder length hair? Wear the extensions you lifted at Sally’s and do a low ponytail or side braid. How do you want to look on tv when a picture of you is plastered on the news? It could easily happen. ‘Young female steals thousands in makeup, police need your help!’ Think of this statement as you get ready for the day. We tend to get more and more relaxed the longer we lift and don’t get caught. You should never be cocky and think you can just ‘go as yourself’ to the local mall and lift because you’ve been doing it for years. Always lift as ‘someone else’ when doing big hauls. Dress like someone else and even pick a fake name for your shoplifting 'character’. This will come in handy when the SA asks your name as she lets you into the fitting room. You’ll be less likely to rattle off your own. Also, the further away you can drive to lift, the better! It’s inconvenient I know, but if you’re ever caught, you’ll be glad you coughed up the extra gas money!
