BEAVERCREEK, Ohio (WDTN) - Police in Beavercreek are looking for a quick short change scam artist.

The suspect conned the Goodwill store on N. Fairfield Road for $20 on Oct. 1.

Police said he paid for a pair of pants with a $50 bill and some change.  After the clerk counted back his change, the suspect was able to pocket a $20 bill without being seen. He then told the clerk she didn’t give him enough change. The manager ended up giving him is money back, and they kept the pants, and he kept the $20.
 
Goodwill officials told police the same suspect has hit several of their stores recently.
