An incident of internal theft took place at an Apple Store located in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, China. Zheng, a former employee of the store, was working as an inventory administrator in 2020 when he exploited his position to steal 44 brand-new iPhones. He then proceeded to sell these stolen devices at significantly reduced prices in the bustling Mong Kok night market.

Suspicious inventory record discrepancies prompted the supervisor to examine the surveillance footage, which ultimately led to Zheng's identification. In the end, the court found Zheng guilty of theft and handed down a 13-month prison sentence. Additionally, Zheng was ordered to pay compensation to Apple Inc., amounting to approximately RMB 29,286.
