If you're thinking about shoplifting in Mexico, shopkeepers have one word for you: Beware! You could become the next viral video star.

Mexican shoplifters known as "farderas" hide huge quantities of items under their clothes and attempt to walk out of stores without detection. Now, Mexican shopkeepers are attempting to fight back against thefts by uploading videos of shoplifters who have been caught. The exercise is meant to expose and shame them.

It's unclear whether this brand of viral infamy will actually stop any of these farderas from stealing again.
