A Self-Checkout Receipt Helped Unravel a Monthlong Walmart Fraud Case

A Walmart self-checkout transaction that rang up at $105.01 allegedly should have cost more than six times that amount. Palm Beach County deputies say the June 3 transaction was part of a monthlong barcode-swapping scheme at a Walmart west of West Palm Beach.

Tammye Astrid Ovalle-Enireb was arrested on felony charges of aggravated retail theft, organized scheme to defraud, and accessory after the fact, according to a probable cause affidavit cited by CBS12.

The charges are allegations. Ovalle-Enireb has not been convicted in the case.
