What happens to stores or supply chain employees who don't want to cooprate with the scam?
And in a separate and _entirely _coincidental item, if anyone in the target stores or supply chains in these EU countries wants to report the problem, or doesn't want to cooperate, they or their families are without any meaningful legal right or means to defend themselves when the thugs arrive to "convince" them.
Yay for being able to refuse, on principle, to cooperate with a scam and survive the refusal...
