00:00A magician appears to be fooling Walmart cashiers.
00:10Oh, so they haven't caught him.
00:12He is magic.
00:14Well, I think of all the cashiers, some could be easier to fool.
00:18Sure, yes, yes, yes.
00:20This is in Texas.
00:22The Seguin Police Department says the man uses sleight of hand tricks.
00:26My God.
00:27To convince cashiers he didn't receive the proper amount of change.
00:32Oh, so he's one of these guys.
00:33Right, so they're like, $73 change.
00:35And he's like, I only got three.
00:38Yeah.
00:39I saw a guy at a supermarket try this trick on someone,
00:45and I had to say to the cashier, you're being scammed right now.
00:49You need to intervene.
00:49They call you.
00:50Yeah, I did.
00:51You stepped in.
00:52I was like, no, you're being scammed right now.
00:54They told me, when I was a cashier, they told us about this.
00:57It's like they hand you a.
00:59I forget what it's called.
00:59It's called something.
01:00It has a name.
01:01Yeah.
01:02So this person isn't a magician.
01:03It's just not real.
01:05Well, they say he's a magician who's using sleight of hand.
01:09Like this man is basically Professor X.
01:12I've never seen somebody with such mental powers.
01:14Imagine, like, you get handed change back.
01:17Think about it.
01:18You get handed change back.
01:19So you spend, you give them a 20, but you only spend $4.
01:23So they give you back, like, a 10 and a 5 and a 1.
01:26And then you quickly are able to hide the 10 in your hand somehow
01:32and, like, being like, oh, but all I have is the,
01:34you just gave me the 5 and the 1.
01:37And then they're like, oh, okay.
01:39And they give you another 10.
01:41Like, that's the kind of stuff that these people are doing.
01:44But it's $2,700.
01:46So it's got to be bigger amounts than that, right?
01:49But this is a scam artist, not a magician.
01:53They call him a magician.
01:54But is this just the Walmart definition of just a guy who's a scam?
01:57I'll tell you what, he's Walmart magic, please.
02:00This guy had the power of David Copperfield.
02:04That's what I'm saying.
02:05He had those Professor X powers or something.
02:07He had a puffy shirt on.
02:10And then an overcoat.
02:13And he had a wand and a big hat.
02:16Some Jedi mind tricks on us.
02:20He distracted me and told me to look at some kind of tower we had set up.
02:26And then he made it disappear.
02:27I don't even think he's a magician.
02:28I think he's a sorcerer.
02:30Real magic.
02:34Real life magic show.
02:37It was worth it.
02:37This is magician music, Ben.
02:39It doesn't seem to be anything.
02:40I'm not sure that this was a magician.
02:43Yeah.
02:44I don't know if the strong minds of this particular Texas Walmart's employees are.
02:49Oh, my God.
02:50That's the description, though, they gave.
02:52I'll be honest.
02:53So this person was about to get extra money because the cashier that was helping this person
02:59was like almost went cross-eyed from the fast talk that the guy was doing and like
03:05moving the bills all around.
03:07And you could just see.
03:08And I was like, you're you're excuse me.
03:11I was like, excuse me.
03:12You gave him the right change.
03:13I saw he's he's scam.
03:15He's trying to scam you.
03:16And the guy like looked at me and then got the hell out of there.
03:18You didn't say he was a magician.
03:20I was like, man, it's a magician.
03:21Whoa.
03:24Wait a second.
03:25Do that again.
03:27He's good.
03:29Whoa.
03:29He's good.
03:31How did he steal that money from you?
03:33He did a poof and then gone.
03:35Magic.
03:37Poof.
03:38Gone.
03:38The dark arts.
03:39So they say what this Walmart magician does is he will count out the change.
03:49Showing the employee just a portion as he pockets the rest of it.
03:55So he might be doing he might be like giving them a hundred dollar bill, though.
03:58Yeah.
03:59You know, and then they give him back a several hundred.
04:01Right.
04:02But I mean.
04:04I don't know how much they can give him back.
04:06I don't know how much.
04:07I don't know how much.
04:08I want to see these guys scamming the Walmart commercials with this music.
04:13Music and smoke.
04:14I see that smoke.
04:18I'm going to buy $72.
04:23This outdoor swimming pool.
04:25Here's your change for that pack of gum.
04:28$37,000.
04:30Let me just count it real quick in front of everyone.
04:33I'm going to count this very quick.
04:35$1,000.
04:36$2,000.
04:37$3,000.
04:37$4,000.
04:38$5,000.
04:38$6,000.
04:39$7,000.
04:39$8,000.
04:40$7,000.
04:40$8,000.
04:40$8,000.
04:41$9,000.
04:42$12,000.
04:44$3,000.
04:44All you gave me was $34,000.
04:48The register is completely gone.
04:52How do they do it?
04:54It's all in your mind.
04:57I'm going to levitate.
04:58Oh my God.
04:59Look at him rise.
05:00Powerful.
05:01This is the greatest time I've ever been at the grocery store before.
05:04This is the greatest checkout experience in my life.
05:07A magic man.
05:09Magic man.
05:09Watch as I pull something out of this hat.
05:15A rabbit.
05:18Is that a wolf blanket?
05:20No.
05:23Faux wolf blanket.
05:25That's a nice blanket.
05:27What'd you find there?
05:28Back there in Walmart.
05:31Please let him have a Bluetooth speaker with this music.
05:34Imagine that he sets it up and presses pain.
05:37He's like about to get my change.
05:39Yeah.
05:42I ain't got around everybody.
05:43The guy's going to do some magic.
05:45And he changes his clothes each time he carries out his magic.
05:50Oh, right.
05:51That's why they can't tell who he is.
05:53I don't know.
05:54This time he had a jumpsuit on.
05:56They did get a picture of the dude.
05:59So they know at least who they're looking for.
06:03Let me see this magic.
06:03Here's the Walmart magic.
06:05That's hilarious.
06:08He's in sweatpants.
06:09Yeah.
06:10In a baseball cap.
06:12My God.
06:13He was incredible.
06:16Like a Criss Angel mixed with David Blaine.
06:20With the fashion sense of Chuck the Freak.
06:22Yeah.
06:22Yeah.
06:24God.
06:24He's a bit chubby too, it appears.
06:27He's a chubby sweat pant wearing Walmart magician.
06:30But $2,700 he's got so far with this.
06:33Sleight of hand scam.
06:35I just, I have to wonder how many times he's done this to get $2,700.
06:40Because the person that I saw doing it was just trying to get an extra $20.
06:45That's it.
06:45He had to do it a lot.
06:46Yeah.
06:46Someone said, trust me, to a lot of Walmart employees, just being able to count is magic.
06:53He knows magic.
06:55Yeah.
06:55He counted to $72.
06:57How am I supposed to figure that out?
07:02Oh, man.
07:03I do love that they describe him as a magician.
07:05Oh, my God.
07:07Let's hope they get him soon.
07:09And he stops terrorizing those Walmart cashiers.
07:16Oh, my God.
07:16Oh, my God.
