I really need to find out all i can about targets asset protection because i got in trouble with them last week and i just got the letter today. But the whole thing was unfair because i had tried to shoplift eyeliner. okay so that is fair that i got in trouble because i did do something that was wrong, but the fact is that i had put it back. i took it and i put it back after i had tried to put it in my purse but then when i walked out i got pulled to the side and they said they knew that i had taken something- even if it had been from times before . So i gave them 3 or 4 eyeliners i had taken maybe even months ago. Now they are charging me 295 dollars and i am wondering if it is worth it to fight it or just pay. Its not the money that is the issue, its just i am not sure wether the way i was threaten by them was legal, being i am a minor. Please someone help me. Is it worth it to lie about it now and say that they sent the letter to me but i didnt do it and i know nothing about it? ??
Well thank you for the advice. i know i have to get over this I have gotten in trouble once before but with my friends- whom all steal- its hard to stop. I have tried, and i am still trying. that is why i had put it back. I did not walk out the store with the merchandise i had try to take that day. But they guareented me that i had something in my bag that had not been paid for from target in my bag. and i said that i didn’t but they said that they wouldn’t believe that and it would only be worse for me if i didn’t hand them something i had taken. I am not even sure if the products i handed them had been from that store. they jsut scared me. But anyways, i’ll just pay for it. I just dont respect the way they handled things nor the behavior after i had given them the items, they were joking around the whole time. but you are right. thanks

    I worked for Target for a few years, and believe me, they have video of you taking the eyeliner.

    You need to get your act together and stop the shoplifting. Own up to this and tell the truth, and you’ll probably just pay the fine and get community service.

    Why are you taking things? Is it a dare, or a thrill, or do you just want things you don’t have the money to buy? Is there an adult in your life that you can talk to about this?

    As a mom, I alternately want to shake you and give you a hug. You really need to get this all figured out before it becomes so serious that you won’t be able to get into college or get a job – and then you’ll feel even more like you have to steal in order to get the things you want.

    The way to start over again is to own up to this. Since you are a minor it won’t be on your record and it won’t screw up your future prospects. Please, please, please don’t keep stealing after you turn 18.

    Good luck to you.
