Unfortunately, many retail stores don&#8217;t have an effective way to combat the troubling trend.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Abusive return fraud schemes have grown at an alarming rate, putting merchants in a complex no-win situation\u2014losing revenue from fraud versus needing to keep returns amenable.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Return fraud is illegal. In most U.S. states, it is recognized and treated as theft or robbery. Meanwhile, in other states, it is recognized as a felony or misdemeanor. Return fraud is being taken more seriously, and so are the repercussions following these types of crimes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">So, what exactly is return fraud?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Individuals or an organized retail crime ring (a group of professional criminals) prey on retailers for an illegal profit. They usually work in teams to create counterfeit handbags, belts, jewelry, watches, shoes, and clothing to return them for cash or store credit. They often collaborate with shop employees to ensure the return scheme is smooth.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The industry of&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presstelegram.com\/2021\/06\/21\/12-7-million-in-counterfeit-designer-apparel-cialis-pills-seized-at-los-angeles-ports\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">counterfeiting<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&nbsp;is rampant. There are many variations to return fraud; the things you need to look out for are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">High inventory shrink rate<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Increase in returns &#8211; mainly occurring at opening or closing times<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Return policies not being enforced by employees and\/or managers&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">We find the specific types of counterfeiting for return fraud impact our Real Authentication community more than others. According to the National Retail Federation (NRF) and the Loss Prevention Research Council, these are the types to look out for:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Returns made by organized retail crime groups \u2013 71%<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Return fraud through the help of employees \u2013 77.4%<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Return fraud through manipulated e-receipts \u2013 33.9%<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It is not only so-called customers and organized criminals taking advantage of this crime.

Even if you might be suspicious of a specific item, it is essential to remain calm. Never make any accusations you cannot prove because that could lead to ruining relationships, losing customers, and damaging your business&#8217;s reputation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Resellers and stores need to know the most common types of return fraud and look out for patterns in behaviors. The most crucial step to prevent this type of fraud is by training using an authentication partner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Buyers, never pay cash for an item unless you really know the seller. Always use PayPal, credit cards, or other legitimate marketplace platforms. Ask the seller for their proof of authentication, or better yet, get your potential purchases authenticated with a reputable luxury authentication service like Realauthentication.com\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0297c19\" data-id=\"0297c19\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0f11410 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0f11410\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/realauthentication.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/buying-counterfit-purses.png\" title=\"\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e119b43 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default qodef-elementor-content-no qodef-elementor-stretch-row-no qodef-elementor-overlay-no\" data-id=\"e119b43\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d9ca92d\" data-id=\"d9ca92d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5320c0d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5320c0d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\"><i>Disclaimer: Real Authentication is a 3rd party authentication service and is in no way affiliated with the brands it services.<\/i><\/p><p style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\"><em style=\"background-color: #ffffff; color: var( --e-global-color-text );\">About Real Authentication: Real Authentication\u2019s mission is to provide individuals, dealers, and global brands with unparalleled confidence and peace of mind by leveraging our deep expertise and years of experience to deliver the most trusted and accurate <a href=\"https:\/\/realauthentication.com\/services\/\">luxury goods authentication service<\/a> available.
