Answer: Sales Skimming or Defalcation

Sales skimming occurs when a person at the sales counter takes a part of the cash from sales, and officially reports a lower total. The legal term for sales skimming is defalcation.

This is a white-collar crime that occurs before sales are recorded in the books of accounts and hence is quite difficult to detect, since there is very little paper trail that is involved.
