put pocketing

When a person puts something into your pocket. It is the same as reverse pick pocketing. It is done by some advertising agencies to promote their product.
The advertisers are getting more aggressive and cheap with their put pocketing campaigns. At one time they would put a fiver in the pocket with their ads. Now they put tasteless trinkets of negative value.

cash register justice

Typically any situation where municipal and traffic violations are strickly enforced and fines are levied. Unfortunately for the poor who cannot afford to pay, the tab gets bigger and violations are compounded for not paying the original fines.

In some cases cash register justice can be a method available to those that can afford to pay the justice system and meet minor stipulations to get their minor criminal charges dropped and expunged from their record.
Cash register justice can be a "pay-to-get away with it" kinda thing especially when criminal charges are dropped and expunged by paying fees to the prosecutor in additions to minor stipulations. This may available to all in theory but easily taken care of by the rich, but not easily affordable by the poor.

Corona-shamed

When a person is shamed for not using proper hygiene or taking the proper precautions during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Typically this is done on social media to celebrities that are closely associated with a COVID-19 case or have had the virus and do not take proper precautions to prevent the spread. While the person can be shamed for violating quarantine guidelines to do errands for which delivery is possible, or when they do not wear a mask in public places and/or do not respect the property distances, etc. But it can also be for saying something stupid like COVID-19 is just like the flu, especially when it is peaking and 2,000 people are dying.
Just after his live broadcast from his house to describe the horror of his wife getting a positive COVID-19 test result, the celebrity was found in a local Pharmacy buying sunglasses, which he could have gotten online. This caused as ruckus in the store as he was Corona-shamed by some and fawned all over by others. His loud sneeze could be seen all over social media.
