Fake bills in shopping malls

I would like to draw the attention of many buyers who go for shopping in the famous malls of the city quite frequently. There are many occasions where extra items' cost is added with the customer's bill, when you are too busy with shopping. I found once while shopping that an ice-cream cake's bill had been added with my bill which actually did not exist. I was shocked to see that as the quantity of my shopping was very small, and while I was complaining many people came beside me and said they had the same experience.

My advice to shoppers 'please check the items while you pay the bill' because you never know, how much extra money you are paying in your carelessness.
