wat do i do next ???

You should have used your RIGHT to remain silent.
You are under no obligation to answer questions from anyone.
You are free to decline any interview, especially an interview that is designed to get you to INCRIMINATE yourself.

You are ONLY required to pay a judgment holder, meaning someone who has sued you, a trial was conducted, and the person won a judgment.

You don't even need to pay a judgment.
However, if you don't pay a judgment, it can harm your FICO score.
By refusing to pay a small civil judgment, not much more will happen to you.

According to you, you signed some documents about the alleged theft.
The police weren't called, and it is extremely unlikely the police will appear today, tomorrow, or in the future for an alleged theft of some lousy shoes.

If you pay, the debt scavenger that sent your the DEMAND will laugh all the way to the bank.

the shoes that were alleged to have been pilfered were placed back into a box and unsuspecting dupe has probably bought them, or they were returned to the manufacturer for a FULL credit.

You must decide to pay the scavenger or ignore the scavenger.

If I had such a choice, I'd ignore the letter.

That said, I have never stolen anything, so I wouldn't receive such a letter.

If you do NOTHING else, please don't steal anything as long as you live.

None of their junk is worth losing your good name over, mate.

Only you can decide what you should do.

My suggestion is not seek a position in retail.

More than likely your name is in one of their databases tagging you as an untrustworthy person.

Other than that, I suggest you live your life and put this unfortunate event behind you.

In any future posts, please make an effort to use something that resembles proper capitalization and punctuation. Doing so will make it easier for others to read and understand what you write.

wat do i do next ?

That's for you to decide, but it's likely that you could be sued successfully for the cost of merchandise that you conspired in the theft of. You probably also fall within the provisions of the civil penalty law for shoplifters. I guess the question for you is whether paying to keep this out of the hands of the police and the court is worth it to you.

Be further advised, paying the alleged demand can be used as evidence of guilt.

At the moment you are NOT guilty of any crime.

If the police were to appear with a warrant to arrest you, payment of the demand might be used to convict you at trial.

Even a rookie lawyer could argue this entire event away to an acquittal in your favor if you remain mute and do nothing.

Bottom line, mate, that confession you allege to have made can't be used at trial against you.
Furthermore, the only entity profiting off of you will eb the scavenger law firm that sent you the demand.

No law firm is going to take this to court to try and recover a lousy four hundred bucks.
The scavenger law firm will eagerly accept your donation, because it costs them NOTHING.

We are assuming this letter is Civil Demand it may not be. Who sent you the letter (A law firm) and what does letter say? Leave out names places etc. I am a Retail theft consultant and deal with questions like yours daily
