Finally got caught at Target but got away

If you seen that one lp in the same store, and were they following you, or suspiciously there at the same place you were? they are setting up a sting, and yes they have evidence against you. I have that same situation, except this was back in early 2000s, they used real SECURITY guards, undercovers. I was a section of the store that was also a blindspot, and the items i wanted to steal, and i noticed someone in my peripheral vision watching me, so i became immediately nervous and dropped my stuff and walked past the undercover, and noticed he had his flipphone out, it was not on, so i knew he was doing that "pretend" do something else. so i walked away into the mall, many more times i went there and i saw them at the exact time, and same place i wanted to steal. The last time i ever noticed them when he also got another female undercover, presumbly to act as a female witness, i ditched, and they followed me, but i walked so quickly, i was already in the mall and i saw them come near the entrance and turned back. Thats the last time i saw them. i surmised they started setting up a sting, after i blatantly started stuffing mtg packs on the first floor, in front of an aisle with camera, or some employee saw me, i did this for a few months, and thats when the Undercover started to become noticible.(they were trying to set up a sting on the second floor. Im pretty sure this is what happened to you.
