In the video, a Walmart employee told the TikTokker that workers in some stores are scanning customer receipts to test out of a new system.

She said, “It just shows that your receipt is from the last four hours, that it’s from this store, and the items in that receipt.”

The worker said that some customers were using fake receipts to try to steal items from Walmart stores.
