Naples Fla Dec 13 2010 A cashier at Home Depot is accused of making false refunds totaling more than $1,700.
Gary Cabera Williams, 20, of 786 98th Ave N., North Naples, was arrested Friday by Collier deputies and charged with fraud to obtain property and grand theft.
An internal investigation at the Home Depot at 2251 Pine Ridge Road, Naples, revealed several suspicious refunds made by Williams, according to the arrest report. Store security reviewed the video and on the returns a customer was never present during the transactions.
Williams admitted to making the false returns, according to the arrest report. He told deputies he would take down the bar codes of items in the store, then enter them in the store computer as if a customer was returning it without a receipt and then put the money on a gift card.
Store surveillance shows Williams using gift cards twice to make purchases in the store. The arrest report indicates Williams made 13 false refunds totaling $1,709
