Nice. Installing the privacy doors backwards, anyone outside your changing room can watch you try on clothes. I need to get to a Macy's, it seems.
A 10 News undercover investigation revealed customers may be revealing more than expected at Macy's stores all across the country. While it's illegal to secretly videotape inside fitting rooms in Florida, Macy's manages its loss-prevention by installing their privacy doors backward.
That means that any employee - or customer - standing up against the door can see inside. But the person getting changed cannot see out.
Macy's acknowledged installing the doors backward as a loss-prevention method.
The company appears to have been installing privacy blinds backward for a number of years all across the country, whenever state law allows it.
"Retailers work hard to strike a balance between preserving the privacy of customers, providing customer service, maintaining customer safety in fitting rooms, and deterring the theft of merchandise," said Melissa Goff, Vice President of Media Relations & Cause Marketing at Macy's.
What kind of balance for privacy are they striking when you can see into the fitting rooms without anyone's knowledge?
