Lake Wales, FL: Florida mall explosion: Manhunt
under way after pipe bombs detonated in shopping centre
A manhunt is under way after two pipe bombs exploded at a shopping centre,
police in Florida said. No one was hurt and no shoppers were near the devices
when they detonated at the Eagle Ridge Mall in Lake Wales, around 30 miles east
of Tampa. The mall was evacuated following the explosions, which went off at
around 5.30pm in a small corridor which is off limits to the public. Lakes Wales
Deputy Police Chief Troy Schulze told reporters: “It’s very concerning to us.
“People [were] here shopping, just enjoying a Sunday afternoon or evening with
their families, and literally, boom.” He said around 100 people were in the
shopping centre at the time and that it was fortunate no one was close to the
explosions, which caused a small fire. He added that the incident was not being
treated as terrorism “at this time”, and said witnesses had reported seeing a
stocky, white middle-aged man running from the scene, who was being sought as a
“person of interest”.

Amazon Go Checkout 'Feels Like Shoplifting'
Amazon opens its first cashier-less retail store in Seattle
Amazon is throwing open the doors to its first cashier-less grocery store,
dubbed Amazon Go, in Seattle on Monday, January 22.
The company first revealed its plans for its futuristic retail experience
back in December 2016, describing how you could simply waltz into a shop
with your phone that has the company's app installed, pick items off the
shelves, and walk out without bothering to check them out; you'd simply be
billed automatically via your Amazon account.
![](http://www.d-ddaily.com/images/1-22-18_nytimes3.png)
Since then, it's been trialing the store and its advanced computer vision tech
(cameras installed along store shelves track the items you pick up); last March,
it
ran into technical difficulties when more than 20 people shopped
simultaneously, and so had to delay the official launch.
But it looks like Amazon has worked out those kinks and is now ready to let
people give this a Go in downtown Seattle, where its shop occupies 1,800
square feet and offers everything from staples to snacks to alcohol.
As
The New York Times notes, the store isn't entirely devoid of human staff
– just cashiers. You'll find employees waiting to assist you in case you
face any issues, as well as chefs preparing meals that you can buy, and others
checking IDs before letting you grab bottles of liquor. Oh, and you'll
need the app in order to get past the subway-style barriers and begin
shopping.
The company is keeping mum about whether it plans to open more Go stores, but if
it's keen on the concept, it'll have competition to worry about. Last month,
Recode reported that
Walmart was working on a similar idea under the codename Project Kepler.
businessinsider.com
![](http://www.d-ddaily.com/images/1-22-18_nytimes.png)
At Amazon Go, checking out feels like - there’s no other way to put it -
shoplifting. It is only a few minutes after walking out of the store, when
Amazon sends an electronic receipt for purchases, that the feeling goes away.
Actual shoplifting is not easy at Amazon Go. With permission from Amazon, I
tried to trick the store’s camera system by wrapping a shopping bag around a
$4.35 four-pack of vanilla soda while it was still on a shelf, tucking it under
my arm and walking out of the store. Amazon charged me for it.

Former Pilot Flying J sales executive testifies he complained
to firm's president about fraud
When former Pilot Flying J sales executive Dan Peyton learned a trucking company
had been defrauded by his colleagues, he told jurors Thursday he dialed up the
truck stop giant’s then-president.
“They told the carrier they were going to give him one deal, and they didn’t,”
Peyton testified Thursday in U.S. District Court in Chattanooga. “I told (former
Pilot Flying J president) Mark (Hazelwood) … they cheated the customer. Mark
said he would take care of it, that (Pilot Flying J) would pay the money that
was owed.”

Wells Fargo ends fight with a whistleblower in fake-accounts scandal
Wells Fargo has put an end to a well publicized fight with Claudia Ponce de
Leon, a former retail bank manager who blew the whistle on its sham-accounts
scheme that ultimately affected 3.5 million Americans.
Both sides say they reached a settlement this month, though its terms are
confidential. The agreement signals a possible shift in legal strategy for Wells
as it appears to be the first instance in which the bank has voluntarily ended
one of its lengthy fights with any of the whistleblowers it fired after they
spoke up about the creation of fake accounts.

'Sleeping with the Enemy'
Kohl's shares could pop 50% as Amazon partnership ramps up
Kohl's is "sleeping with the enemy" and that's a good thing, according to
Jefferies analyst Randal Konik.
It's no surprise Amazon has been dubbed the enemy of the retail world, stealing
market share from traditional players. But some (including Nike and Sears) have
decided it's better to work with the e-commerce giant than clash and compete.
Last October, Kohl's started selling Amazon's smart home products and accepting
the online retailer's returns at a handful of its U.S. stores. Since then, some
people have made the case for Amazon outright acquiring Kohl's for its real
estate and loyal customer base.
The partnership between the two is a "win for both companies," Konik said
Friday. "We anticipate the pilot to roll out nationally and provide KSS stores
with stronger traffic and is a nice added convenience for AMZN shoppers."

Zombie retailers close stores nationally, hoping for an online afterlife
In retail, some brands that could no longer cut it with brick-and-mortar stores
are getting a second wind in the digital world.
The idea of going exclusively digital runs counter to the strategy of some
successful online retailers, such as the eyewear maven Warby Parker and the
menswear retailers Bonobos and Tommy John, which are opening stores. But
analysts say the online-only approach will likely continue due to the high costs
of rent and staff and the decline in mall traffic.
“Wall Street is increasingly using the term zombie for any retailer that is
struggling, as a kind of walking-dead euphemism,” said Garrick Brown, head
of retail research at Cushman & Wakefield.
The notion of the “zombie retailer” really came into vogue after the bankruptcy
of Circuit City in 2008, Brown said. Though the retailer was liquidated, its
intellectual property was bought in 2016 and the brand reemerged as an online
consumer electronics retailer.
“But when it reappeared online, it was only the same company as before in name
only,” he said. “It was a retailer that died and came back to life but in a form
that while familiar, was totally different. A zombie.”

Retailers keeping most of the windfall from tax cuts
Years of slow wage growth and record profits followed by a massive corporate tax
cut have enabled businesses including retailers such as Walmart to raise pay for
hourly workers and hand out one-time bonuses. The vast majority of the gains,

L Brands' Wexner calls out Trump’s 'unacceptable behavior'
Last August, L Brands founder and Chairman Leslie H. Wexner joined the list of
business leaders condemning the white supremacists who demonstrated in
Charlottesville, Virginia, and President Donald Trump’s response to them.
A week ago, Wexner showed that his online activism isn’t going to be a one-time
thing. Wexner took to
streaming video again a day after President Trump reportedly used vulgar
language when discussing immigration in an Oval Office meeting. Trump’s remarks,
Wexner said, prompted him to repeat what he said in August: “This is not
acceptable.”

Pep Boys LP Team Member Brian Eaton, 42, passes away
GoFundMe page set up to help with daughters' college expenses
Brian
Stephen Eaton, 42, of Midland, passed away on Thursday, January 18, 2018. He
unknowingly suffered from arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
Brian was born November 28, 1975 in Lake County, FL to the late John Eaton and
Nancy Moody of Waycross, GA. He was preceded in death by his brother, Eric
Eaton.
He is survived by his wife of 15 years, Glynis Lenihan Eaton of Midland;
daughters, Ava Eaton (12) and Kate Eaton (9); mother, Nancy Moody; sister,
Danielle Nissen; brother, John Eaton; niece, Bailey Nissen; nephew, Dexter
Eaton; and mother and father-in-law, Cynthia Rich and Lawrence Lenihan.
Brian was a loving and devoted husband, father, son, brother, uncle and friend.
He graduated as a Criminal Justice major from Appalachian State in 1999, and
worked as a Regional Loss Prevention Manager for Pep Boys. Brian was a master
carpenter, had a passion for working on antique cars and projects on his
tractor. There wasn't anything that Brian could not build or fix. He and his
wife bought their dream home four years ago, and through their partnership and
teamwork he made her vision for their home come to life. Brian's hands stamped
and transformed every part of the family home, turning it into a true homestead
and destination full of experiences for family and friends. He spent his time
outdoors with his girls riding four wheelers and always finding opportunities to
teach them how to do new things and activities. He also enjoyed working with his
neighbor, El, and was an avid University of Georgia football fan. Brian was
definitely one of a kind, a true man's man, and there was nothing he wouldn't do
for his friends and family.
A
GoFundMe page has been set up for his daughters' college expenses.

Understanding Supply Chain Cyber Attacks
Today's cybersecurity landscape has changed dramatically due to digitalization
and interconnectivity. While the benefits of each push businesses toward
adoption, security risks associated with interconnectivity between networks and
systems raise major concerns. Everything-as-a-service removes traditional
security borders and opens the door to new cyber attacks that organizations
might not be prepared to recognize or even deal with.
Moving resources into the hands of the final consumer now involves creating
systems that handle, distribute, and process goods using a complex network of
suppliers and services. These supply chains are what cybercriminals try to
exploit, as third-party suppliers usually have some level of access to their
customer's network. This, coupled with an advancing software stack that's
integrated with critical internal infrastructures, increases the attack surface
that threat actors can exploit to breach perimeter defenses.

How do you secure the cloud? New data points a way
The march toward the cloud for data and services has many companies rethinking
their approach to cyber security. Do they need a cloud security strategy? What
is different about a cloud security strategy? Two recent surveys have shed light
on how security strategies are changing, and more important, how they should
change.
Placing more IT infrastructure in the cloud is in some ways more secure than
having it in house. For instance, you can be reasonably sure that the system is
running the latest version with the proper patches in place. Cloud service
providers are also building in new capabilities such as using machine language
for anomaly detection. However, it also presents new risks, some of which is the
result of misunderstanding how to manage cloud security.

Wearables open a new door for payment fraud
The evolution of wearable devices is taking place at a staggering rate. From
simple fitness trackers to tethered and stand-alone smartwatches, a tremendous
amount of sensitive personal and financial information is being passed from
device to device, device to cloud and wrist to wrist, putting consumer privacy
and security - as well as enterprise data - at risk.
The rise of mobile device fraud, combined with the amount PII and sensitive
information transmitted by smartwatches and other wearables, means information
security professionals must remain even more vigilant about mobile device
security - with a special focus on the unique risks posed these devices.
To protect paired mobile devices from wearable point-of-entry attacks,
organizations should implement multi-factor authentication protocols which
leverage the latest biometric technology, and also invest in digital
authentication and fraud prevention solutions.
Organizations should seek to authenticate at the device-level to offer the
strongest level of identity verification. A permanent device ID is one way to
identify a device and establish the first layer of trust. A mobile phone has
thousands of unique identifying attributes that are part of the device itself
and can be used to uncover and analyze risk factors that could lead to
potentially fraudulent activities.

New PCI SSC program aims to increase ranks of qualified security assessors
The PCI Security Standards Council is accepting applications for its new
Associate Qualified Security Assessor program. According to a press release,
the initiative aims to attract cybersecurity talent to the payment card industry
and ensure the quality of QSA services for merchants and service providers.
QSA companies are certified by the PCI SSC to perform on-site assessments of a
company's PCI Data Security Standard compliance. The AQSA program helps QSA
providers to develop cybersecurity professionals as QSAs under the guidance of
an experienced mentor.
"An overall shortage of cybersecurity talent is making it difficult for QSA
companies to find suitable new assessors," Mauro Lance, chief operating officer
at PCI SSC, said in the release. "As a result, assessors are increasingly
expensive to hire and retain, driving assessment costs up for merchants that
rely on their services.

Scotland: Robot working in a supermarket FIRED after a week
as it scares human customers
A robot working in a local supermarket lasted only a week before it was fired
for making the customers uneasy. Nicknamed "Fabio", the robot's employment was
part of an experiment run for a BBC programme to see if it could integrate with
human shoppers.
Fabio was placed in the flagship Edinburgh store of Scottish supermarket chain
Margiotta. It's job was to interact with customers through jokes and greetings
and help them locate items within the store.
While Fabio initially started out strongly, it soon became clear that the cyborg
wasn't going to be replacing a human worker any time soon.

The Strategic Risk Of E-Commerce Fraud
As e-Commerce channels account for an ever-increasing share of consumer and
business spending, payment fraud grows virtually in lockstep — and poses an
ever-higher performance risk to its enterprise victims.
Total payment card fraud volume worldwide rose 19% from 2015 to 2016, according
to The Nilsen Report, a trade newsletter covering the card and mobile payment
industries. That outpaced the 15% gain in card transaction volume. The problem
was particularly bad in the U.S., where 12.75 cents of every $100 in transaction
volume was fraudulent last year, compared with 3.73 cents for all other regions
of the world combined.
The cost of fighting fraud — and the penalties for failure — can be so
substantial that they represent a performance risk to merchants, especially
those that derive most of their sales online.
In a recent survey of 155 senior finance executives by CFO Research in
collaboration with Vesta, more than four in 10 respondents — 43% — say the risk
of fraud has interfered with their organizations’ efforts to develop new
products or services or caused them to make changes to their business models.
That number swells to 53% for companies that derive more than 90% of their
revenue from e-Commerce. For those that use only internal resources to detect
and assess fraud rather than enlisting the aid of a third-party fraud prevention
solution, the figure jumps to 55%.

Buy&Sell: A Secure and Safe Digital Marketplace
for the Blockchain Era
This is something that has more or less become part and parcel of doing business
transactions on the internet. When dealing with individuals or small companies
there is often a sense of worry after you put enter your financial information
into an online form, and see the money taken out of your account. You have no
sense of security, and you don’t necessarily feel sure you will get what you
ordered.
Buy&Sell is making this a
problem of the past. Up until recently the technology just wasn’t there. Someone
was always going to have to act on faith and just trust the other. Either you
were the seller and sent the product before payment was received (rare) or you
were the buyer and sent the payment and trusted that the seller would put it in
the mail upon reception of the product (more common).
Luckily Buy&Sell is using blockchain technology as well as their in-house
proprietary system to help make these issues problems of the past.
When it comes to fraud prevention, the utilization of the blockchain is crucial.
Not only does it do payment
tracking and give an honest account of the payment history of the buyer,
Buy&Sell uses the blockchain
to track the history of items themselves, giving customers a better idea of the
history of their used or second-hand products.
The use of cryptocurrency allows for two crucial things: both parties, as well
as an arbitrating party, can see, with perfect accuracy, how much money left a
wallet and how much entered another. In this way, it is impossible to lie about
not having received payment or about having already sent the payment, etc.

Redding, CA: 2 Arrested for ID Theft after
Charging $10K in Stolen Credit Cards
Police have arrested two women suspected of identity theft, after a Redding
woman had her wallet stolen while shopping. According to the RPD, the ID theft
began Friday, at the TJ Maxx. Police said within an hour of the theft,
44-year-old Elisa Bearden of Redding began receiving notifications from her
credit card providers that her cards were being used at multiple locations in
Redding. Bearden went to the Mt. Shasta Mall and went to Macy’s and worked with
loss prevention to find the suspects on video surveillance.
Authorities located the two female suspects inside the mall at Foot Locker and
were identified as Camila Fernandez and Julietta Smith. Both suspects were
uncooperative and had to be detained in handcuffs, and authorities searched the
suspects and it revealed that they had numerous items stolen from Bearden. They
also had a “booster bag” and a large powerful magnet. A search of both suspects
revealed they already made a fake Nevada ID card using Bearden’s name, but with
a picture of Fernandez. Both the suspects charged nearly $10,000 in Bearden’s
credit cards within a two hour period, and they also stole $6,000 in cash from
Bearden’s wallet.

5 Habits for Staying Productive In the Dreariest
Months of the Year
While you might still be feeling optimistic with the start of a New Year,
there's a good chance that the winter blues have started to kick in. It's
totally human, but there are some ways you can improve your mood and stay
productive even in these dreary months!
Bundle up and get outside
Why January Is Your least Productive Month and
What To Do About It
Let's face it: January can be a buzzkill. Daylight is in short supply,
conditions can become dreary fast, and the cold can zap our energy in an
instant. While productivity is down the hole for most this month, there are ways
to take advantage of downtime or boost productivity levels.

feedback to others. The study showed that peer-to-peer negative feedback rarely
lead to improvement, unless this simple thing happened first.

Tip of the Day
Sponsored
by Vector Security Networks
|
The 5-day work week as the adage goes, and in retail that sometimes translates
into 6 and maybe more depending on the season, but for the most part we're all
operating on a 5-day work week and, broken down into its parts, what you see is
corporate America's biorhythms. With Monday's representing the slow start and
getting back into your own rhythm and really just trying to get through the day,
set the weekly objectives, and get home. Tuesday brings the work and the rhythm
kicks in with better performance and even making some accomplishments. Then
comes hard-hitting, fast-moving Wednesday when everyone knows they've got to
move the dime and the rhythms are in high gear with a long day and feeling like
you've climbed a mountain. With Thursday comes repetition and the hope you can
have as strong of a day as you did on Wednesday, but for the most part you get
close but don't exceed the day before generally. Then Friday-- ah how we all
love Friday's and while we're all working hard every one has their eye on the
clock and knows when that whistle blows we'll all be humming that Flintstone
tune yabba dabba doo we're outta here!
All you can ever hope for is two excellent days, two good days and one so-so
day. So don't feel guilty when you have a so-so day. Just remember each week
you've got to have two excellent days and two good ones.
Just a Thought,
Gus
