The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact


38 AGs of Both Parties Demand Action Against ORC
Bipartisan Coalition Urges Congress to Take Action Against Rise in ORC
Washington, D.C. -The National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG) sent a letter on behalf of a bipartisan coalition of 38 state and territory attorneys general urging Congress to take action to address the rise in organized retail crime across the country.

Organized retail crime has contributed to financial losses totaling over $121 billion in the U.S., and 76 percent of retail asset protection managers report their employees have suffered from violence at the hands of an organized retail criminal. Cargo theft remains a primary component of organized retail crime nationwide, disrupting supply chains and acting as inflationary pressure on the price of everything from baby formula to clothing.

During the 118th Congress, the House and Senate introduced H.R.895/S.140-Combating Organized Retail Crime Act of 2023 and S. 139-Organized Retail Crime Center Authorization Act of 2023. This legislation would provide the necessary resources at the state and federal levels to bring the organizations and individuals behind this nationwide problem to justice. Now, the coalition is urging the 119th Congress to re-introduce this bill to include increased federal penalties for supply chain thefts to act as a strong deterrent against the organized theft of goods in transit.

Several attorneys general have formed task forces and created prosecution units to combat this growing problem. In their letter, the coalition notes that legislation proposed in the 118th Congress would expand upon and synchronize state and federal efforts with the creation of an Organized Retail Crime Coordination Center at the Department of Homeland Security, facilitating the information sharing necessary to address the complex cross-border nature of organized retail crime.

The attorneys general from Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, and South Carolina co-led the letter to Congress.

Joining them are the attorneys general from Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Hawaii, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, U.S. Virgin Islands, Washington, and West Virginia. naag.org

   The D&D Daily first reported on this coalition in the Feb. 26th edition of the newsletter


Shoppers Want Action to Boost Store Safety & Reduce Crime
Nearly half (45%) of consumers favor using technology to combat organized retail crime, with support rising to 52% in major metro areas.

Study: Concerns about retail crime pushes shoppers online
Retail crime has some consumers opting for online shopping instead of in-store visits.

Approximately one-third of consumers view retail crime as a serious issue, according to a survey from technology solution company Flock Safety and government technology company Zencity. Nearly six-in-10 (58%) shoppers prefer online shopping due to crime concerns, and 63% who have witnessed retail crime are more likely to shop online.

Efforts by retailers to secure merchandise are being noticed. Nearly two-thirds (63%) of consumers have noticed locked shelves or items behind a counter, while 59% have observed video cameras inside or outside stores. Just over half (51%) of consumers report waiting over five minutes to access items in stores with locked merchandise.

Overall, consumers support stronger security measures to deter crime. Nearly half (45%) of consumers favor using technology to combat organized retail crime, with support rising to 52% in major metro areas. More than half (54%) say license plate recognition (LPR) cameras can help deter retail theft, and 62% believe recorded security video increases store safety.

Between 2022 and 2023, shoplifting incidents increased by 26%, according to the National Retail Federation, with 42% of these cases involving acts of violence. Retail theft resulted in store losses of over $121 billion in 2023, and projections suggest it could surpass $150 billion by 2026, according to data from Capital One.

“The data shows that people don't just want to talk about safety, they want action,” said Michael Simon, chief strategy officer at Zencity. "American consumers want to feel safe while shopping, and are eager for retailers to adopt new technology to restore a safer, more welcoming, and more convenient shopping experience. It stands to reason that retailers who recognize this trend in public opinion and take action will be better positioned to encourage more in-store shopping from their customers.” chainstoreage.com

Live-Saving Facial Recognition
Washington Post op-ed: Facial recognition technology is not foolproof, but our research shows it can save lives
Facial recognition technology (FRT) is a tool powered by artificial intelligence that matches faces to images stored in a database, using machine-learning algorithms to recognize patterns. By 2016, one in four local state or local police departments had access to the technology. Today, that number is probably much higher.

Does it work? As criminal justice scholars — one of us a former cop — we wanted to find out. We examined 268 U.S. cities from 1997 to 2020. Only about 9 percent used the technology. But after adopting it, violent crime decreased over time in those cities, even after accounting for factors such as local economic and population changes. The biggest impact was on homicide rates, which fell by an average of 14 percent across all cities from their initial adoption of facial recognition to 2020. The longer cities used the technology, the more crime fell.

Facing staff shortages and low clearance rates, many law enforcement agencies are turning to FRT to help solve crimes faster. Cities such as New York and Los Angeles pair it with street cameras and license plate readers. In Chicago, police use smart-video analytics to link body cameras with the technology for real-time monitoring. Police credit this high-tech system with helping to catch dangerous criminals, including violent gang members in Maryland...

Because the technology gives a probability of a match, not a guarantee, higher accuracy standards for “similarity scores” are needed to prevent false accusations. Training is also critical. Officers must understand that FRT is only a tool, not a verdict. They should always follow up with solid investigative work to avoid mistakes caused by overreliance on AI.

No single tool will stop crime. But if we balance FRT with strong rules, independent oversight, and community investments, we can harness its lifesaving potential while protecting our rights. washingtonpost.com


Security Firm Not Responsible for Deadly Shopping Mall Shooting
Review Commission Vacates OSHA Citation in Boise Mall Shooting
The Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission vacated an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) General Duty Clause citation of a security firm following a mass shooting at a Boise, Idaho, shopping mall. In the February 5 decision, a review commission administrative law judge (ALJ) concluded that the Department of Labor (DOL) didn't establish the necessary evidence for a violation under the General Duty Clause of the Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Act.

The ALJ's decision became a final order of the commission.

During the mass shooting on October 25, 2021, at Boise Towne Square Mall, a mall patron shot and killed two people, including a mall security guard employed by Professional Security Consultants, Inc. (PSC), and injured several others. An OSHA compliance safety and health officer (CSHO) began an investigation the next day.

OSHA cites employers using its authority under the General Duty Clause when no established federal standard applies. There's no federal standard for workplace violence.

The DOL's citation hinged on the employer's identifying the individual patron as a recognized hazard. The ALJ concluded that based on earlier encounters with the man, PSC couldn't have known he would become violent. ehsdailyadvisor.blr.com

Retail in Flux
Navigating Disruption, Consolidation, Technology Priorities and Theft

By Tony D'Onofrio - President, Sensormatic

The retail industry is undergoing a seismic transformation, driven by a confluence of forces reshaping the way businesses operate and consumers shop. From the rapid consolidation of major players to the disruptive impact of e-commerce and emerging technologies, the sector is in a state of flux. At the same time, retailers are grappling with rising security concerns, as organized retail theft and shrinkage reach unprecedented levels.

As companies race to adapt, they face a delicate balancing act-investing in cutting-edge technology to enhance customer experiences and operational efficiency while addressing the financial and logistical challenges posed by theft and competition. Artificial intelligence, automation, and data analytics are emerging as critical tools, but will they be enough to safeguard profitability and sustainability in an increasingly volatile market?

The last few weeks have been filled with meetings with many global retailers across multiple continents. Cultures may be different, but the formula to delight and engage consumers with differentiated branding strategies is similar across the world.

Part of this latest global retail inspirational journey includes delivering my keynote on "The Disruptive Future of Retail." This article summarizes some of my favorite new insights on the changing retail landscape, retail concentration & disruption, technology priorities, and the opposing retail theft innovation forces.

Update on Friday's Retail Blackout
What to know about the Feb. 28 "economic blackout"
A grassroots movement is calling on Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers on Feb. 28 as part of an "economic blackout."

Why it matters: The economic protest comes as many everyday Americans struggle to keep up in the current financial landscape, characterized by high housing costs, surging egg prices and stubborn inflation.

Between the lines: This week's economic blackout is the latest, but not the first, grassroots movement against consumerism that has gained steam in the face of high costs of living.
 
Who is behind it?

The Feb. 28 economic blackout is an initiative by The People's Union USA, which describes itself as a "grassroots movement dedicated to economic resistance, government accountability, and corporate reform." The group says it has no political affiliation but is rather focused on uniting Americans against corporate greed.
 
What is the economic blackout?

The Feb. 28 economic blackout calls on consumers to avoid all unnecessary purchases, either in-person or online, from midnight Thursday through midnight Friday. "No Amazon, No Walmart, No Best Buy," The People's Union USA website reads. "Nowhere!"

It further urges participants not to spend money on fast food, major retailers or gas, and to avoid using credit or debit cards to make nonessential purchases. axios.com

Helping LP/AP Professionals Impacted by California Wildfires
The LP Benevolent Fund Opens Grant Applications for California Fire Assistance
The Loss Prevention Benevolent Fund (LPBF) is announcing the availability of grant funds to assist LP/AP professionals impacted by last month's devastating California Fires. In a departure from its present guidelines, which focus on assistance to LP/AP professionals injured or killed in the course of their jobs, the LPBF board voted last week to make grant funds available to 2025 California Fire victims. This initial round of disaster grants will serve as a test to determine the feasibility of adding FEMA-declared natural disasters to the LPBF grant guidelines on a more permanent basis.

This fund was originally set up for the benefit of LP/AP professionals facing hardship as the result of an on-the-job incident. However, as needs evolve, so must our guidelines,” noted LPBF Board Chair Jim Cosseboom. Cosseboom added, "The devastating winds and resulting fires of January 2025 were a compelling reason for us to test new avenues for distribution of funds - in this case to assist those in our industry whose homes and lives have been forever changed by the fires.”

Caroline Kochman, the President of the LP Foundation, which serves as the steward of the LPBF, offered these thoughts. "The LP Benevolent Fund's broad purpose is providing aid and support to our industry colleagues and I am in full support of the LPBF Board's recent decision. Testing the expansion of the LPBF distribution channels and guidelines is timely, compassionate, and appropriate at this juncture.”

Grant applications will open at 9 am Pacific Time on Thursday February 27th. Applications can be found at: https://www.yourlpf.org/page/CaliforniaFiresGrantApplication

Grants will be made on a first come, first serve basis so applicants are encouraged to act quickly. Applicants must be employed in the AP/LP industry, show verified impact to a primary residence, and meet all other requirements as outlined on the application.  yourlpf.org

Protos Security Whitepaper

Leveraging Law Enforcement & Security Measures to Combat ORC


Organized retail crime (ORC) poses a significant challenge to law enforcement and society as a whole. While it is well known that financial losses, public safety concerns, and broader societal impacts are all part of these issues, it is challenging to find a solution as crime rates continue to rise. The purpose of this whitepaper is to explore the role of law enforcement in combating organized retail crime. Retailers and consumers alike are negatively affected, which results in billions of dollars in losses each year.

We present strategies and recommendations to enhance the fight against ORC, contributing to the protection of businesses and the safety of communities. A number of challenges associated with ORC are outlined, as well as strategies and best practices that retailers should follow to collaborate effectively with law enforcement and other stakeholders. The whitepaper also discusses solutions and strategies to combat this growing problem.

69% Expect Cybersecurity Expenses to Rise Over Next Year
DeepSeek's AI shake-up could boost cybersecurity risks, spending: report

The cybersecurity market could grow to $338 billion in value by 2033, driven in part by expanding AI risks, Bloomberg Intelligence analysts said.

Global cybersecurity spending is projected to surge in coming years as artificial intelligence tools like chatbots and agents proliferate, creating new risks that force enterprises to shore up their information technology defenses, according to Bloomberg Intelligence analysts.

Enterprise-wide deployment of generative AI is poised to accelerate through the first half of this year, in part due to the recent rise of Chinese tech startup DeepSeek, which will likely help to lower the cost of adoption, the analysts said in a Thursday research note. This in turn could increase the need for cybersecurity investments, they wrote.

“DeepSeek drives proliferation of open-source LLMs [large language models], creating vulnerabilities such as prompt injection attacks, which will result in companies boosting their cybersecurity defenses,” Mandeep Singh, global head of technology research at Bloomberg Intelligence and a lead analyst behind the report, said via email.

The rapid adoption of generative AI in recent years has made CFOs determined to commit substantial investments toward cybersecurity upgrades, a recent Grant Thornton survey found.

Sixty-nine percent of respondents expected cybersecurity expenses to increase over the next 12 months - a 16-quarter high and an increase of 16 percentage points over the third quarter. cybersecuritydive.com
 

Over 240M Emails & Passwords Compromised
Is your email or password among the 240+ million compromised by infostealers?
For the second time since the start of 2025, a huge number of login credentials extracted from infostealer logs has been added to the database powering the HaveIBeenPwned (HIBP) site and breach notification service.

In January 2025, HIBP's creator Troy Hunt added 71 million email addresses to the database.

This time around, Hunt has loaded 284 million unique email addresses, alongside the websites they were entered into and the passwords used, as well as 244 million never-before-seen passwords to the Pwned Passwords database.

Launched some eleven years ago, HaveIBeenPwned has become one of the services individuals and organizations turn to to check whether their private information or login credentials have been compromised in a data breach and/or leaked.

Hunt has been adding verified database dumps received from various sources to the HIBP database for years. With the explosion of infostealer infections in 2024, he has also begun adding account credentials scraped from infostealer logs and shared on Telegram. helpnetsecurity.com


Rogue State Actors Outsourcing to Non-State Actors
State-linked threat groups collaborating with hacktivists, other actors to target infrastructure

Rogue state actors are increasingly outsourcing their intel and hacking tools to attack key industries, a report by Dragos shows.

Critical infrastructure providers are under threat of more frequent and sophisticated attacks as state-linked threat groups are increasingly collaborating with non-state actors to launch attacks against key sectors, a report released Tuesday by Dragos, a firm that provides industrial cyber services.

State-supported threat groups are sharing intelligence and infrastructure with other hackers to help them launch attacks against industrial sectors, which serve the objectives of rogue nations, but then provide the cover of deniability, according to Dragos.

Lee warned that non-state actors tend to engage in more opportunistic attacks, but if state actors can transfer much of their knowledge and capabilities to hacktivists and other groups, then there will be more widespread and damaging attacks against important infrastructure providers. cybersecuritydive.com

Lululemon Files Lawsuits Against E-Commerce Sellers, Alleging Counterfeiting
Lululemon doesn't want anyone else squeezing profit out of its trademarks.

In January, the Canadian athleisure brand filed three nearly identical lawsuits in the Illinois Northern District Court, each alleging that a list of e-commerce sellers have violated its trademarks by selling counterfeit products bearing striking resemblance to Lululemon's genuine products.

The complaint alleges that the defendants "target United States consumers using one or more seller aliases" to sell infringing and counterfeit versions of Lululemon products. The company alleges those actions have caused it damage and injury.

“Lululemon is forced to file this action to combat defendants' counterfeiting of its registered Lululemon trademarks, as well as to protect unknowing consumers from purchasing counterfeit Lululemon products over the internet,” the company states in its complaint.

Those products, it goes on to say, tarnish its trademarks and brand reputation. And, per its complaint, the company believes those items are primarily sold to U.S.-based consumers by people who "reside and/or operate in the People's Republic of China or other foreign jurisdictions with lax trademark enforcement systems, or redistribute products from the same or similar sources in those locations.”

According to Lululemon, those sellers hawk their alleged counterfeit goods on e-commerce marketplaces like Amazon, eBay, DHgate, TikTok, Walmart and Temu.

“E-commerce stores operating under the seller aliases often include content and images that make it very difficult for consumers to distinguish such stores from Lululemon's website or another authorized retailer,” the company asserts in its claim, noting that none of the defendants are authorized resellers, nor do they have consent or authorization to use Lululemon's trademarks. finance.yahoo.com


AI is Helping Fuel Fake Review Surge
The internet is filled with fake reviews: Here are some ways to spot them

Watchdog groups and researchers warn that the rise of generative AI tools, which enable users to create highly detailed online reviews effortlessly, is reshaping the landscape for merchants, service providers, and consumers.

The emergence of generative artificial intelligence tools that allow people to efficiently produce novel and detailed online reviews with almost no work has put merchants, service providers and consumers in uncharted territory, watchdog groups and researchers say.

Phony reviews have long plagued many popular consumer websites, such as Amazon and Yelp. They are typically traded on private social media groups between fake review brokers and businesses willing to pay. Sometimes, such reviews are initiated by businesses that offer customers incentives such as gift cards for positive feedback.

But AI-infused text generation tools, popularized by OpenAI's ChatGPT, enable fraudsters to produce reviews faster and in greater volume, according to tech industry experts.

The deceptive practice, which is illegal in the U.S., is carried out year-round but becomes a bigger problem for consumers during the holiday shopping season, when many people rely on reviews to help them purchase gifts. news9.com

Palm Beach County, FLL 4 men accused in $500K T-Mobile cellphone theft ring
Four men are facing charges in connection with the theft of more than $500,000 worth of cellphones and other electronics that were supposed to be delivered to T-Mobile stores in South Florida. Beginning in at least July of 2024, UPS shipments that were en route to the stores were stolen by the theft ring, which operated in Broward, Palm Beach, Martin and St. Lucie counties, authorities said. According to the office of Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier, the four suspects - Giffton St. Abuyn White, Sheldon Beswick Brown, Christopher Palmer, and Samuel Drummond - stole the items then sold them to a third party for profit. T-Mobile launched an internal investigation that traced the stolen goods to California, and by October of 2024 the losses amounted to over $500,000, authorities said. Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office detectives began an investigation in October and discovered 16 thefts had occurred at a UPS hub in Riviera Beach. Investigators also discovered a fencing operation that was being run out of a recording studio and phone repair shop in Lantana, the sheriff's office said. Detectives arrested White, Brown and Palmer, and recovered some stolen property. Drummond fled the state and has an active warrant, authorities said. The suspects face charges that include conspiracy to commit racketeering, organized scheme to defraud, dealing in stolen property, unlawful use of a two-way communications device, and grand theft.  nbcmiami.com


North Haven, CT: Serial Retail Thief Tied to $365K in Stolen Goods Busted
David Pasquariello, 39, of Connecticut, was arrested Tuesday after police say he stole nearly $1,800 worth of electrical outlets from a home supply store in North Haven, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. According to investigators, Pasquariello has been linked to more than 200 thefts or attempted thefts across the region, with the total value of stolen goods exceeding $365,000. Detectives say he would enter stores, and grab items like wires, light fixtures, and tools, before running out to a waiting getaway car. Authorities say Pasquariello tried to outsmart them by changing his clothes and swapping out license plates on his vehicle. But that wasn't enough to keep him from getting caught. On Tuesday, Feb. 25, around 3:40 p.m., a Connecticut State Police received a tip that Pasquariello was at the North Haven store again. Surveillance footage showed him walking out with eight boxes of electrical outlets worth $1,791.36, police said. Detectives, working with New Haven Police, tracked down the getaway car - a silver Honda Accord - and pulled it over in a grocery store parking lot. Police say Pasquariello was in the passenger seat, and his alleged accomplice, Aileen Johnson, 40, was driving. Inside the car, police found the stolen outlets and, noticed drug paraphernalia in plain view, investigators said.  dailyvoice.com

Officers used several resources to track the vehicle, eventually finding a perfect match of the pickup truck in the same Walmart parking lot on Tuesday. Upon contact, officers found a woman sitting in the passenger seat and narcotics paraphernalia inside the truck.  nbcrightnow.com

A lot of articles talk about "How to impress your boss" and give you tips on how to accomplish this. But at the end of the day, it's all about supporting them, helping them reach their objectives, and not trying to merely impress them. Impressing a person is great, but usually short lived. Supporting and helping them reach their goals requires a long-term effort that, at times can truly test your resolve and stamina.

The thought has always been that if your boss gets promoted, then you might as well -- as long as you are the one helping them get ahead.
