A cashier at a Starbucks store in Lakewood, California has been fired for stealing customers' credit cards.

It is reported that when the customer Juana Martinez (Juana Martinez) checked out at this point on the day of the incident, a young female cashier said that the paper printed on the cashier's receipt had been used up and she needed to pick it up and took the customer's credit card.

The next day, Juana received a text message from the bank saying she had spent $200 (1300 yuan) at a local grocery store, but she didn't actually go to the grocery store. She suspected that the Starbucks cashier had tampered with her credit card the day before, so she went to the grocery store to check it out. Later, sure enough, I saw the cashier enter his credit card number on the monitoring records of the grocery store.

She then went to Starbucks to argue with the cashier, who immediately admitted that he had copied her credit card number and memorized her password when she swiped it, and then bought the goods at the grocery store. She begged Juana not to charge herself, but Juana said she was a mother of two, her husband was a soldier, and it was difficult to support the family on a meagre income, which was used to pay the rent.

Juana later sued the cashier for credit card theft. A spokesman for Starbucks said the cashier had been fired
