Former Victoria's Secret Employee Gives Shoplifters Fair Warning That They Will Get Caught

by Stephanie

A former Victoria's Secret employee has issued a warning to all shoplifters (and potential shoplifters) who think that stealing from the store is easy and risk-free. In her viral TikTok, Kenzie Rae (@kenzieraesch) explained how the company has a whole team dedicated to catching shoplifters.

In the video, Kenzie said that people stealing from Victoria's Secret is a daily occurrence, and many of the culprits assume that no one cares enough to stop them. Kenzie says this is "sort of true" because the company wants to protect their employees, so they do not want them chasing down thieves.

However, she explained that Victoria's Secret has an entire "Asset Protection Team," whose sole purpose is to monitor and ultimately catch shoplifters. The TikToker said that the team would review security camera footage, take screenshots, and tally up every item you stole, building a file on you as they go.

Kenzie says that it's inevitable that the team will eventually catch up with you, especially if you continue to return to the store to steal. Even if you go to a different store location, the loss prevention team works for the entire district and will be able to identify you from the footage from other stores.

The moral of the story? Don't shoplift from Victoria's Secret (or... at all)!

The TikToker's video on why you shouldn't steal from Victoria's Secret went viral.

Kenzie gave an example of a lady who the team had been monitoring.

They noticed that the woman usually came into the store on a Thursday, so they decided to pay close attention and were ready to catch her when, sure enough, she came back on a Thursday and attempted to steal again. The team then waited with the woman until the police arrived.

They're "trying to scare people with fear tactics."

However, Kenzie says that's not the case.

What's your take on this? Do you think Kenzie's warning is valid, or should it just be common sense not to shoplift from anywhere?

Well, we would hope that most people would have enough morals and respect for others that they wouldn't want to steal regardless. But, for those who do make a habit of shoplifting, this might be a good wake-up call.
