What she was doing was changing the tip amount on debit or credit card receipts, so yeah, it's a felony. So easy to do if you do it right.

Absolutely nothing to do with the business, this is an exchange between card holder and waitress (of course, if the business properly pays their staff the tip amount, some companies keep their wait staff's tips).

So, it is like you are saying the waitress is rich ripping off poor card holders.

Pay for goods with card, tip in cash. There's no gray area when it's done that way.
