Jessica worked at the cash register of a department store. Her friend Molly came to the store one day to help Jessica steal a watch she wanted but couldn’t afford. Molly took the watch to Jessica’s register and, instead of charging Molly for it, Jessica rang a "no sale" on the register. Molly pretended to give Jessica cash to make it look like she was paying for the watch. Molly then took the watch out of the store and later gave it to Jessica. What type of scheme did Molly and Jessica commit?

Answer:

A. " A False Sale Scheme

Step-by-step explanation:

Molly and Jessica connived and took the watch while Molly rang "a no sale" for the watch instead of charging her friend for it or paying for it her self. This is an example of a FALSE SALE SCHEME, where a supplier or accountant or contractor commits a fraud by knowingly submitting false, inflated or duplicate invoices with the intent to defraud.

Molly purely had the intention to defraud the shop where she works at which was exactly what she did with her friend Jessica.
