Subject: Pattern of Price Manipulation, Financial Harassment, and Coerced Intimidation at Family Dollar

Let it be known that the Family Dollar store located at 2346 E 79th Street, Chicago, Illinois, has engaged in a continued pattern of financial harassment, price manipulation, and intimidation directed toward me each time I attempt to shop at this location. On multiple visits, the female cashiers have consistently overcharged for selected items, often by small amounts that accumulate over time—creating a financial barrier meant to deter me from returning to the store. When I attempt to question or verify pricing, male associates or proxy individuals positioned near the registers or outside the doors immediately intervene to block or discourage any dispute.

The store’s management appears to deliberately rotate or remove certain grocery items from inventory, preventing me from obtaining consistent pricing or comparisons. This irregular availability pattern allows the store to conceal price inflation and manipulate totals on subsequent visits, further contributing to the ongoing harassment. This practice of provocation followed by intimidation mirrors the same pattern previously documented: Cashiers initiate verbal conflict or false claims, Public bystanders or male proxies “defend” the employees, Surveillance or physical intimidation follows outside the store.

These orchestrated actions serve no legitimate business or safety purpose. Instead, they represent a deliberate effort to harass, humiliate, and financially burden a targeted customer through collusion between store staff, external proxies, and affiliated community contacts. I have documented each incident and hereby place all participants on formal notice that this coordinated behavior constitutes consumer fraud, harassment, and intimidation under Illinois law.

Continued acts of overcharging, price tampering, or orchestrated public provocation will be entered into the ongoing legal record and included in all future filings. I reserve all rights to seek civil and criminal remedies for economic discrimination, defamation, and harassment, and to submit all documented evidence to the appropriate regulatory and judicial authorities.
