What's to prevent people from bagging items they have not scanned?

They probably weigh the bags when you pay like they do with the regular self checkout lanes.

Buy a 10 pound package of filet mignon for $100.
Buy a 10 pound bag of cat litter.
Scan the cat litter twice.
$102 order for $4.

It is far more exact than that. The scanner weighs things like fruit and meats and makes sure the item's weight you put in the bag matches the weight of the thing you scanned.

You would have to find a bag of litter that exactly matched the weight of the meat. Good luck with that.
