Retail and fast food workers have turned to TikTok to show the world how they are scamming customers out of money. These low-wage workers are taking discarded customer receipts and using them to redeem rewards from various cash-back apps and websites. The method that people are using to receive rewards is through the Fetch app, which allows users to rack up points based on how much money they spent at various retailers and fast-food shops – and workers are using receipts that customers left behind to fraudulently redeem points by using the customers’ purchases.
The Fetch app uses receipts to track rewards. When customers do not take their receipts with them after their purchase, the retail and fast-food workers can use that receipts to redeem points for their own accounts. When a worker gets their hands on dozens of receipts per shift, they can rack up a ton of points on the Fetch app, which they can redeem for various rewards.
