Rothmus 🏴(@Rothmus):At 53% it’s basically a coin flip. Black Americans are about 14% of the population but make up 30% of larceny theft arrests, more than double their share. A lot of that return fraud comes from stolen goods or people straight up abusing the system. Stores fight back with tighter checks on higher risk situations, like no receipt returns. Do it right with a receipt and normal behavior and returns work fine for anybody. And yet…
