From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Return fraud is the act of somehow defrauding a retail establishment via the
return process. There are various ways in which this crime is committed.
For example, the offender may return stolen merchandise to secure cash, or
steal receipts and/or receipt tape to enable a falsified return. Return
abuse is a form of “friendly fraud” where someone purchases products
without intending to keep them. Perhaps the most well-known form of this

What sorts of things constitute mail fraud?
It is a crime to use the postal system to carry out any sort of scheme
designed to defraud someone. The statute makes reference not only to the
United States Postal Service, but also to "any private or commercial
