SYRACUSE, N.Y. — The New York State Police announced Monday they have arrested a Syracuse man for making off with about $10,000 worth of stolen merchandise in a scheme involving creating fake bar codes.
State Police in North Syracuse last Saturday arrested Jeffrey G. Gordon, age 37, for three counts of 4th degree grand larceny, a felony, and one count of petit larceny, a misdemeanor.
The Home Depot Loss Prevention Office in Camillus contacted State Police after it discovered that Gordon was creating barcodes for less-expensive store items, scanning the fake barcodes at self-checkout scanners, and paying the “fraudulently lower prices,” the State Police said in a release.
