Is this a public list?

No. Claim files are private to member shops. There is no public name page and no people-search.

Is a claim a verdict?

No. A claim stays a claim until the named person contests it in writing. It is not a guilty finding.

Who gets the verification code?

The shop or filer email. The customer or subject email is the lookup key and never gets the code.

No. There is no risk score, star rating, or ranking. A hit is a set of written claims, not a grade.

Can shops use this for hiring or credit?

No. Lookup is not offered for employment, credit, insurance, or housing decisions.

Does filing replace a police report?

No. File with police when that is the right step. This is a private merchant file, not a court or police record.

Theft

A theft claim here is a shop's written account of property taken in a commercial setting — walk-outs, stolen goods, or similar — filed as a claim, not as a court finding.

Who this is for

Shop owners documenting an incident they believe happened with a customer in their business. Not the general public hunting names.

What shops usually do

Call the police when they should, keep an internal note, and often never see the goods again. Some also file a private merchant claim so another shop can see the write-up.

What a private claim file is

A written merchant claim other member shops can see after they sign in and, for lookup, pay membership. It is not a public crime blotter and not a conviction.

What we will not do

We will not publish a public name page, photos of people, or verdict language. A claim is not a finding that someone is a thief.

How to file

Write down what was taken, when, and how you know. Attach a police report number or internal log if you have one — not photos of people. Submit on the claim form. The shop inbox gets the one-time code. Filing is free.

File a tip — free

Shop-owner lookup for chargebacks, no-shows, and disputes.

Lookup membership — $10/mo
