Abstract: There is provided an antitheft apparatus. An approach detector is disposed on an apparatus where consumables are mounted, and detects a person who approaches the corresponding apparatus. An image acquisition unit acquires a captured image of the person when the person's approaching is detected by the approach detector. A detector detects that the consumables are stolen from the apparatus. A recording unit, when the stealing is detected by the detector, matches an image which is captured by a capturing apparatus at a most recent time before the detecting, with information of the detection, and records the image and the information.
