i will try and keep this short and sweet.
a few years ago (approx 3) I was living alone and struggling a bit financially, I would shop in a supermarket and sometimes not scan all my shopping (it would be really small savings which makes it even more stupid of me). A few times after doing this I got caught and taken away by the security guard and my ID was photographed and I was let go. I haven’t done this since and the police were not informed. Fast forward approx 3 years I have a fiancé, a child and a house and my life is totally different. Today I went into my local supermarket and the security approached me and said “I know you, from ….” And I denied it all, said he must have the wrong person but then he recited my name. I still denied it, I’m just so scared this is all in the past and I don’t want it to come back to haunt me

Why was the security guard saying that? To what end? Was he saying you weren't allowed in the the shop?

Can you just shop elsewhere? That seems like the easiest thing all round
