Man gets $550 Aldi refund for TV he didn't pay for
Natalie Cornish
Police are looking for a man who managed to swindle a $550 refund on a TV that he picked up from the shop floor just moments before.
CCTV from the Aldi store in the UK shows the shopper picking up the television and taking it to the nearest cashier. He then asked for refund even though he hadn't bought it.

The man then leaves the till to speak with the manager, shakes his hand and returns to the cashier who believed permission had been given for a refund.
Lincolnshire Police have released images of the fraudster on their Facebook page in the hope of tracking him down.
