Cops won't do much if it's under 5k.

Some guy bought two 6,500 TV's from Best Buy on my dad's card a few years ago. The cop laughed at my dad and said "dude, your bank is going to refund you".

That's not necessarily true. The credit card companies usually set a threshold somewhere around $500 so a police report will almost certainly be filed. At that point its how much Sam's cooperate and how much info they can get. If they have a time stamp and easily ID whoever did it they'll put out a warrant, but they aren't going to do a month worth of detective work either.

Depends on the cop. I recently had someone from BRPD work to find someone that stole a card and charged less than a grand.
