ICE arrests 114 at Ohio garden center in major
mass raid
 A
swarm of immigration agents arrested more than 100 workers at an Ohio gardening
and landscaping company Tuesday morning, one of the largest of several recent
workplace raids carried out as part of the Trump administration's crackdown on
immigration enforcement. About 200 federal officers blitzed two locations of
Corso's Flower and Garden Center - one in Sandusky, on the shoreline of Lake
Erie, and another in nearby Castalia, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement
told the Associated Press. Agents surrounded the perimeter of the Castalia
location, blocking off nearby streets as helicopters flew overhead.
They arrested 114 workers suspected of being in the country illegally and loaded
many onto buses bound for ICE detention facilities. Dozens of the workers'
children were left stranded at day-care centers and with babysitters, local
activists wrote on social media. Officials expect to charge the undocumented
workers with identity theft and tax evasion. They reviewed 313 employee records
and found that 123 were suspicious, agency officials told the AP. ICE is also
investigating the role the employer played in hiring the undocumented immigrants
but has not yet filed charges against the family business, said Khaalid Walls,
an agency spokesman.

Massachusetts Court Upholds $20 Million Award in Shopper's 2010 Death
C-Store Cumberland Farms Found Responsible for Storefront Car Crash
The Massachusetts Appeals Court has upheld a $20 million award in a wrongful
death suit against Cumberland Farms over a woman killed when a car crashed into
one of the chain's stores in Chicopee in November 2010.
 The June 6 ruling follows a Hampden Superior Court judge's reduction of the
award in August 2016 from $32.3 million to $20 million. In the same ruling, the
appeals court denied a request from Cumberland Farms for a new trial.
Hampden Superior Court Judge Mark D. Mason reduced the amount -- at the time
believed to be the largest ever in Hampden County -- five months after jurors
found the chain responsible for the death of Kimmy Dubuque. A 43-year-old
mother and director of finance at the MassMutual Center in Springfield, Dubuque
was killed on Nov. 28, 2010 when an elderly man crashed his SUV at more than 70
mph into the store at Grove and Front streets. The driver, who suffered a
stroke, was not prosecuted.
The victim's family sued Cumberland Farms, claiming the site was dangerous
and barriers should have been installed to prevent vehicles from colliding with
the building.

People Are Stealing Millions From Grocery Stores by Scanning Items as Carrots
Self-checkout in grocery stores has definitely made the chore of shopping a
little better. Maybe not for the people whose job it is to teach octogenarians
about the joys of touchscreen technology, but for most of us. One group,
however, seems to be benefiting from this technology most of all: thieves.
British shoppers have reportedly been sneakily weighing a variety of items as
"carrots" at self-checkout stations, and over the last four years this has
totaled up to $4 million in theft, according to a
report by The Independent. And it's become so common that many don't even
think of it as a crime.
"This behaviour is perceived as cheating the system or a way of 'gamifying' an
otherwise mundane routine," Emmeline Taylor, professor of criminology at the
University Of London, told the Times of Malta.

UK: How violent street crime has exploded across the UK,
bringing terror to our once-safe communities
Shocking figures released yesterday revealed moped gangs are striking 60 times
every day in London alone. Masked thugs are using scooters and motorbikes to
carry out acid attacks, muggings and jewelry raids. Moped-related attacks across
the UK have risen an astounding 1,000 per cent in the past three years.
Campaigners and politicians have warned this coincides with a worrying rise in
stabbings, drug crime and gang violence. Violent crime rocketed by 21 per cent
last year - the highest figure in 15 years.

Retailers and ATM networks form new coalition to address payments
security
The National Retail Federation, other retail groups and two of the
nation's best-known ATM networks announced today that they have formed a
new coalition intended to improve the security of the U.S. electronic
payments system ranging from credit and debit cards to emerging
technology.
Initial members of the
Secure Payments Partnership include NRF, the Food Marketing
Institute, the National Association of Convenience Stores, the National
Grocers Association, First Data's Star Network and the Shazam network.
The coalition marks the first time that companies from the financial
services industry have joined retailers' efforts to improve payments
security.

Security Concerns Slowing Down Adoption of 'Frictionless Payments'
The excitement surrounding frictionless payments - pioneered by sharing
apps like Uber, but also including voice-enabled payments through
digital assistants and just-walk-out store technology like the Amazon Go
concept - makes them seem inevitable. Consumer concerns about security,
however, could make adoption slower than expected according to new
research from payment provider Paysafe.
While the convenience of these payments is unparalleled, security
concerns continue to dog them. Half of those polled in the Lost in
Transaction 2018 survey will not use them because they have concerns
with fraud. Nearly 70 percent worry that voice-activated systems
like the Amazon Echo or Google Home Assistant will overcharge them when
they make purchases. And, 57 percent think that stores using
just-walk-out technology are too risky.

When the FBI Can Help Companies Deal With a Cyber Event
Companies that discover a potentially significant cyber incident usually turn to
their trusted outside law firm and a cybersecurity firm for assistance. But many
companies decide not to reach out to the FBI, which can be a mistake in certain
circumstances. Considering the practical assistance that the FBI can provide to
targets of a cyber attack, and its recent statements expressing a commitment
to support corporate victims of data breaches, companies and their outside
advisors should give serious thought to reaching out to the FBI as part of their
incident responses.
Reasons for Reluctancy
One reason that companies are reluctant to contact the FBI in the early stages
of a cyber event is that they often know very little. In the first few days,
details like how the attack was executed, what vulnerability was exploited, and
which parts of the network were exposed, are illusive - or, as FBI Director
Christopher Wray described it during Q&A at the 2018 Boston Conference on Cyber
Security, they don't have the incident "wrapped up in a nice, neat bundle with a
bow on top."
This hesitancy is understandable considering companies' experiences working with
government agencies in other contexts, where it is expected that companies will
have answers to the government's questions and will demonstrate an understanding
of the relevant facts. But those rules generally don't apply in a cyber attack,
and recent statements by the FBI underscore that the earlier the Bureau is
notified, the more efficiently and effectively it can provide companies with
assistance.

Gartner Security Summit: Enterprises, Vendors Respond to Cybercriminals
Cybercriminals may be more aggressive than ever, but security vendors are
responding with new technologies - and enterprises are investing in them.
Those were some of the recurring themes at this week's Gartner Security Summit
in National Harbor, Maryland, where more than 3,400 IT executives gathered to
hear the latest in cybersecurity trends and technologies.
 State of the security market
Gartner analyst Dana Gardner provided an update on the security market and
spending trends. The overall security market is expected to grow by 8.5% this
year to $96.6 billion, with most of the growth and sales coming in enterprise
technologies. The relatively small $4.75 billion consumer market remains
flat.
Services is the largest enterprise security market at $57.72 billion, as buyers
have expressed a preference for service delivery, followed by infrastructure at
$17.54 billion, network security at $11.92 billion, and identity and access
management at $4.72 billion.
Perhaps not surprisingly, the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
is driving a great deal of growth in security spending, with business in the
EU setting aside an average of $1.4 million for compliance, and affected U.S.
businesses spending $1 million - and in some cases up to $10 million - to comply
with the new data privacy and security law.

The Industrial Internet of Things
Building a Safe, Efficient, Cost-Effective Security Infrastructure
With more than 327,000 robberies occurring last year in the United States, and
with firearms used in roughly 40% of those incidents, security continues to be a
key concern for businesses, governments, schools, and the general public. Gun
control continues to be one of the most debated topics, and while the nation
stands divided, according to the Brady Campaign there are 93 deaths from gun
violence each day. However, despite prevailing security threats, there are still
many issues such as infrastructure constraints, cost, access to data, and other
barriers that result in ineffective safety.
So, how can organizations address these ever-growing security concerns - both
digital and physical? That's where the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)
comes in. Many organizations, such as the police, are turning to data analytics
and IIoT technologies to protect citizens in an efficient and cost-effective
way. For example, if someone is vandalizing a public space or property, IIoT
technology can alert law enforcement officers by sending real-time alerts, so
the perpetrator is caught in the act while crime remediation costs are reduced.
As a result, IIoT devices and platforms are being deployed in a greater number
of public safety programs.

FCC Seeks $3M Fine For Drone Retailer Accused Of Illegal Sales
The Federal Communications Commission said Tuesday it is proposing a $2.86
million penalty against remote control products retailer HobbyKing, which
the agency alleges markets video transmitters for use racing unmanned drones
that operate outside amateur frequency bands and power limits.
The FCC said HobbyKing, the trade name for a group of U.S. and Hong Kong-based
businesses that market model airplane and drone products online, failed to fully
respond to a letter of inquiry or a series of follow-ups on drone products
allegedly capable of operating outside FCC-designated frequency and power
ranges.

Dangerous fake electric goods sold on Amazon
and eBay, research says
One in three UK consumers have mistakenly purchased a counterfeit electrical
item online
Popular e-commerce sites such as Amazon, eBay and Fruugo are being misused
by third party sellers to exploit online UK shoppers and expose them to
thousands of fake and potentially dangerous electrical goods, an
investigation has claimed today.
The charity Electrical Safety First (ESF) found that one in three UK
consumers - about 18 million people - has mistakenly purchased a counterfeit
electrical item online. They were led to believe that the product was
genuine, only to find it was a knockoff item at risk of causing an electric
shock or even a fire.
Products found to have serious safety flaws range from large household
appliances such as tumble dryers, to kettles, travel adaptors, hair
straighteners and Kodi boxes, which allow users to stream content from apps
and on-demand services.
Millennials are most likely to fall victim to counterfeit scams, according
to the new findings which show that about half of 25- to 34-year-olds have
been conned into buying fake electrical goods online. In contrast the
research found that less than 10% of people aged 55 or over have received a
counterfeit item after shopping on e-commerce websites.

Fayette County, OH: Ringleaders sentenced in
Interstate cargo theft;
$11.9 M of merchandise
The Fayette County Sheriff's Office participated in a collaborative, years-long
investigation that recently resulted in the federal court sentencing of four
individuals convicted of participating in a wide-ranging conspiracy to steal
truckloads of high-value merchandise traveling in interstate commerce.
According to a press release from the U.S. Department of Justice, among those
sentenced in New Albany were the ringleaders of the theft organization: Roberto
Santos-Gonzalez, 37; Carlos Enrique Freire-Pifferrer, 39; Juan Perez-Gonzalez,
44; and Eduardo Hernandez, 55.
Santos, Freire, Perez and Hernandez were named, along with nine others, in a
23-count indictment alleging that between August 2012 and May 2015, the members
of the conspiracy traveled from various locations throughout the United States,
to Ohio, Virginia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Oklahoma, Tennessee, and other states, in order to steal property being
transported in interstate commerce by semi-tractor trailers.
Members of the group would then transport the stolen trailers full of
merchandise to locations in Kentucky, New Jersey, Florida and elsewhere, and
sell the stolen merchandise for financial gain, according to the press release.
The loads targeted by the crime syndicate included truckloads of T-Mobile
cellular phones, Samsung appliances, Ralph Lauren clothing, Dell computers, HP
computers, Pfizer pharmaceuticals, Mead Johnson baby formula, Lorillard
cigarettes, and one truckload of LG cellular phones valued at $11.9 million.

Spokane County, WA: Police bust million-dollar mail theft
ring
Angus Johnston is now facing 37 different charges and had eight warrants for his
arrest when he was taken into custody by Spokane County Sheriff's deputies on
May 30th. His warrants included mail theft, identity theft, theft and forgery
related crimes.
The U.S. Postal Inspector also was seeking Johnston for similar crimes at the
time of his arrest. One of his accomplices is Tyler Smith who according to
Johnston introduced him to "Mailboxing". Once in custody, Johnston told
investigators that he thought he "hit the jackpot" in Airway Heights after
admitting to stealing over 40 checks from a business's mailbox in Airway
Heights. What did Johnston mean by jackpot? According to documents Johnston is
accused of stealing over one million dollars in checks from landmark turf and
seed. During a search of the suspects, apartment deputies hit their own jackpot.
They found meth, heroin, oxycodone, stolen mail, stolen checks, fake checks,
printers, digital cameras, fake id's and check creating software. Detectives
believe Johnston, Smith, and possibly others have been running a massive
counterfeiting operation for months and maybe even longer.

Finding a great mentor can make a huge difference in helping you achieve your

Interesting how the social dynamics of a small industry mirror, somewhat, the
same social dynamics of a family, with the holidays and conferences almost being
one in the same, where we're excited to visit with old friends and colleagues,
yet cautious about the battle lines business and careers at times necessitate or
cause. At the end of the day, it's all about doing what's right for the
industry, adding value, helping people, and continuing to help evolve the
industry. And while each executive has their individual agendas, it's important
to remember that we are all part of one industry and we all share one goal - to
guide, nurture, and evolve it.
Just a Thought,
Gus
