A MAN has been arrested for stealing cigarettes from two Adelaide supermarkets after allegedly posing as a tobacco company employee collecting discontinued stock.
Adelaide police said the 33-year-old from suburban Mile End had been charged with two counts of theft by deception in relation to thefts from supermarket at Plympton and Kilkenny.
He was granted police bail to appear in the Port Adelaide Magistrates Court on January 23.
A police spokeswoman said an investigation was continuing into the thefts of a large quantity of cigarettes from other venues.
Earlier this week Victorian police said a man posing as a tobacco company employee had collected cartons of cigarettes worth more than $30,000 from supermarkets in Victoria and South Australia.
They said the man told staff he was there to remove discontinued stock due to the introduction of mandatory plain packaging of tobacco products.
He says he will be back with new stock - but doesn't return.
