Why I Don’t Put My Title or Department on My Business Cards
Letter
to the Editor by John Velke, SVP Risk Management, Total Wine & More
I just read your “Tip of the Day” in
last Thursday’s D&D Daily. I don’t think this
was the first time I’ve seen it, but I thought I’d let you know that I think it
is one of the best pieces of advice you’ve ever provided.
As someone who has
always been uncomfortable creating new relationships, I’ve found that those I’ve
created outside of Loss Prevention have been the most beneficial to my career. I
think a lot of my success at building those relationships comes from how I see
myself.
Although I recognize that in the LP/AP community I’m regarded as an LP
Executive, in my company I try to promote the idea that I am John, and that if
something needs to be done, and I can help, I’m willing to take it on. I
reinforce this message by not using my title or my department on my business
cards, email etc. In fact, when I’m occasionally asked, “What do you do?” My
first response is usually, “A little bit of everything” or “Whatever needs
doing.”
Editor's Note: A 40+ year veteran of retail loss prevention, John
Velke is the author of "Prove
'Em Innocent: The Art & Science of Workplace Investigations". You can read a
series of excerpts from his book
here.

Artificial Intelligence Could Soon Enhance Real-Time Police Surveillance
Several technology companies are working with police departments across the U.S.
to develop the capability to add artificial intelligence to video surveillance
and body cameras that could identify faces in real time, potentially expanding
the reach of police surveillance.
The body-camera technology, expected to be ready by the fall, hasn’t yet been
purchased by police departments and is still in the development stage. Police
departments, including the New York Police Department, already use facial
recognition to review surveillance footage after a crime has occurred.
The new software uses an algorithm to tell an officer on the spot, through a
body camera or a video surveillance camera, that it has found a suspect. The
officer could then make a decision of whether to stop the suspect or take some
other action.
The technology underscores law enforcement’s growing dependence on software and
high-tech tools, including gun-detection technology, gun-shot-detection
technology and predictive analytics.

The Pilot Flying J Fraud Scandal Hasn’t Touched Browns Owner Jimmy Haslam
But 17 former employees in his company have pleaded guilty or been convicted in
a fraud scheme worth more than $50 million. Haslam announced he would step down
as CEO of the company in September 2012, but returned to the job in February
2013, two months before the company’s offices were raided. Haslam has not been
charged with any crimes and denies knowledge of the scheme. Evidence uncovered
in the investigation possibly contradicts that. Brian Mosher, a former Pilot
Flying J executive who pleaded guilty, testified that he showed Haslam
spreadsheets detailing the fraud, but then said he didn’t report to Haslam.

Costco Escapes Investor Suit Over $3.7B Ponzi Scheme
An Illinois federal judge threw out a lawsuit accusing Costco Wholesale Corp. of
facilitating a Ponzi scheme that cost an investment firm nearly $100 million,
saying Friday the court had no jurisdiction over the dispute.
U.S. District Judge Edmond E. Chang granted the warehouse club’s motion to
dismiss Ritchie Capital Management LLC’s suit over Costco’s alleged role in a
$3.7 billion Ponzi scheme led by infamous fraudster Thomas Petters, saying
Ritchie failed to show how Costco’s alleged conduct was tied to Illinois.
The fraud, which earned Petters a 50-year prison sentence, involved his work as
a middleman between clubs like Costco and consumer electronics manufacturers,
helping evade the manufacturers’ restrictions on selling the goods to the clubs. Petters wooed investors with this so-called “diversion” business, but really
used their money to finance a luxury lifestyle, according to the U.S. Department
of Justice.

Mills Fleet Farm changes gun background check policy
Mills Fleet Farm - a retail chain of 37 stores in Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin,
and North Dakota - quietly changed its gun marketing last month. The retailer
stopped all advertising and promotions for assault-style rifles and
high-capacity magazines but it will continue to sell them, Derick Prelle, Fleet
Farm's chief executive, said in an e-mail interview.
Fleet Farm also changed its background-check policy. Currently, federal law
allows a sale to take place if the gun seller receives no response from the FBI
within three days. Fleet Farm changed its policy so that "no sale will occur
unless we receive a positive 'OK to sell' response from the FBI."

Raleigh,
NC: North Carolina leading the way in fight against counterfeit goods
The state has a large task force devoted to keeping fake merchandise from
getting into the hands of consumers. “Organized crime is involved all the way
from the manufacture to the distribution," said North Carolina Secretary of
State Elaine Marshall.
Marshall is the point person in trying to keep these fakes from reaching your
hands. Marshall’s office has a task force of more than 110 law enforcement
officers who find knock-off items for sale everywhere. She says her task force
has made 621 counterfeit product cases this year and says - it shows no signs of
letting up. "In the last year, we confiscated goods worth over $55 Million at
regular retail,” she said.

Kent County, MI: Opioid addiction brings a spike in
shoplifting cases
The ongoing opioid crisis that is straining resources in Kent County has led to
a spike in shoplifting as addicts look to support expensive habits.
"Retail fraud seems to be exploding and I think a lot of that has to do with
opioid addiction and addiction in general,'' Kent County Prosecutor Chris Becker
said. "They'll steal a TV and go sell it on the street or they'll trade it for
the drugs.''
The prosecutor's office last year handled 1,617 retail fraud cases, a 20 percent
increase from 2007. Retail fraud prosecutions in Kent County are up 74 percent
from 2002.
It really is a driving factor in a good portion of crime,'' Grandville Police
Chief Dan Steere said of opioid addiction. "It's not only shoplifting, it's
burglaries, it's other types of larcenies and an occasional robbery.''

Winn-Dixie Closures May Perpetuate Food Deserts
It’s called a food desert. That’s when it’s difficult to buy affordable or
quality fresh food, and it’s a major problem in Florida. In west central
Florida, about 60 percent of residents live either in poverty or more than a
mile from a supermarket, according to Feeding Tampa Bay, a nonprofit food bank.
Access to that food got harder Tuesday, as the Jacksonville-based parent company
of Winn-Dixie filed for bankruptcy and formally announced that it will close 35
stores statewide — including 10 in the Tampa Bay area.

3rd Breach in 2 Days
Panerabread.com Leaked Millions of Customer Records for 8+ Months
Director of Information Security Ignored Initial Warning
Panerabread.com, the Web site for the American chain of bakery-cafe fast casual
restaurants by the same name, leaked millions of customer records — including
names, email and physical addresses, birthdays and the last four digits of the
customer’s credit card number — for at least eight months before it was yanked
offline earlier today, KrebsOnSecurity has learned.
The data available in plain text from Panera’s site appeared to include records
for any customer who has signed up for an account to order food online via
panerabread.com. The St. Louis-based company, which has more than 2,100 retail
locations in the United States and Canada, allows customers to order food online
for pickup in stores or for delivery.
KrebsOnSecurity learned about the breach earlier today after being contacted by
security researcher Dylan Houlihan, who said he initially notified Panera
about customer data leaking from its Web site back on August 2, 2017.
A long message thread that Houlihan shared between himself and Panera indicates
that Mike Gustavison, Panera’s director of information security, initially
dismissed Houlihan’s report as a likely scam. A week later, however, those
messages suggest that the company had validated Houlihan’s findings and was
working on a fix.

10,000.

Nearly Half of All Cyberattacks Result in Damages over $500,000
Hackers are outpacing and adapting their techniques at a faster pace than
defenders, and nearly half of all cyberattacks are resulting in financial
damages over $500,000, including lost revenue, customers, opportunities and
out-of-pocket costs. According to the Cisco 2018 Annual Cybersecurity
Report, cybersecurity professionals say they will increasingly leverage and
spend more on tools that use AI and machine learning to address the increasing
threats.
In the survey, 92 percent of security professionals said behavior analytics
tools work well, and two-thirds of respondents in the healthcare sector found
these analytics extremely effective to identify malicious actors.
The use of cloud is also growing – 27 percent of security professionals said
they are using off-premises private clouds, compared with 20 percent in 2016.
Among those security professionals, 57 percent say they host networks in the
cloud because of better data security. However, the report says that attackers
are taking advantage of the fact that security teams are having difficulty
defending evolving and expanding cloud environments.

Is Security Accelerating Your Business?
With an ever-growing list of security and compliance requirements, security can
hinder or slow business initiatives. Is your security department stuck in slow
gear or can it go faster?
There's a fundamental push and pull between business and security that has
introduced friction over the years. With data breaches commonplace, security
requirements have continued to grow in scope and, in many cases, have slowed the
ability of businesses to release to market faster. Business leaders often view
security as a necessity in a world of frequent data breaches, and they have
learned to (or are forced to) tolerate an ever-growing list of security
requirements. But why is the validation and vetting of security requirements so
slow, and does it have to be?
A lack of agility and responsiveness to the business ultimately gave rise to
software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications that were fast and simple to deploy.
Small, departmental SaaS footprints expanded enterprise-wide and eventually
evolved into cross-functional application and services platforms. To a certain
degree, shortcomings and delays in application deployments also gave rise to
"shadow IT" — a complete circumvention of the security process.
This trend of embracing simplicity and speed has progressed into the
consumerization of the infrastructure, as shown by the continued growth of
infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) offerings such as Amazon Web Services and
Microsoft Azure. With the increased adoption and simplicity of cloud deployment,
the barrier to entry to spin up and deploy services has dropped dramatically,
and this has increased the security gap in visibility and controls for these
types of deployments.

Boston: Brazilian Couple Charged in ATM Skimming Scheme
A Brazilian couple was arrested on Friday, March 30, 2018, and charged in
federal court in Boston in connection with an ATM skimming operation. Alexandre
Kawamura, 42, was charged with possession of device-making equipment, and Karem
Kawamura, 25, was charged with aiding and abetting the use of a counterfeit
access device.
Eastern Bank records showed that, on the day of Mr. Kawamura’s arrest,
purchases were made on the bank customer’s account at Dick’s Sporting Goods
in Medford. The store’s security camera recorded the defendants shopping at that
store during the time when the bank customer’s account was used to buy a shirt,
jacket, and hat.

What the Heck is
Blockchain?
Blockchain is a decentralized, distributed and public digital
ledger that can be used to track just about any type of data. The records in it
cannot be altered easily.
Blockchain is decentralized so there is no one authority that maintains the
ledger. This means that everyone can see and track movement and changes. When
used for a cryptocurrency (like Bitcoin) it proves who owns the currency and how
much it’s owned. When used for data, it can keep track of the true owner and who
has rights to the data.
Blockchain uses cryptography and advanced mathematical principles together with
data to achieve three objectives: (1.) secure transactions, (2.) control the
creation of additional units of currency, and (3.) verify the transfer of value.
It uses a peer-to-peer decentralized system to conduct transactions and protect
the anonymity of users. The entire process is online. |

With retail rolling out a multitude of new technologies faster than ever before,
how are the core LP/AP executives in the store and at corporate being impacted?
How involved are we in these rollouts on the front end? And on the back end,
does it change the essence of LP’s training, awareness, and investigative
abilities?
With e-commerce fraud growing and a number of LP/AP executives now managing
those processes, we now have a slight, invisible merging of IT Security and Loss
Prevention that is being talked about. How far will this evolve?
In this roundtable discussion, three industry leaders share their perspectives
on how technology is impacting LP’s role now and in the future.

Securing ecommerce payments and fighting fraud
with AI
As online banking and ecommerce channels are growing exponentially, fraud within
these channels becomes more prevalent and damaging.
In fact, the total number of ecommerce breaches, according to Experian, has
increased 56% compared to 2016. Nevertheless, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and
machine learning promise to radically shift the balance of power between
merchants and the criminals who seek to steal from them.
The growth in digital payments and transactions has left merchants, PSPs and
ecommerce companies vulnerable to sophisticated new cyberattacks. Furthermore,
the number of people adopting the use of apps and mobile connectivity for making
transactions is growing at an astounding rate. This is why, in part,
technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning are
critical in helping organisations fight fraud in better and more effective ways
than ever before.
AI is an important development for the payments and transactions industry
because merchant business models are evolving daily, from next day delivery of
goods to digital downloads. Machine learning used in order to fight fraud is the
logical solution for navigating this ever-changing landscape. Other anti-fraud
systems using analytics that do not utilise machine learning capabilities, flag
credit card purchases that take place outside a customer’s country of residence,
for example, or unusual payments to remote suppliers.
The problem with such systems is that those rules are created by humans, who
cumulate and combine data and intuition. It has been proven to be somewhat
effective, although the approach can be costly, slow, leading to false
positives, and failing to keep pace with emerging trends.
Machine learning detects fraud in real-time and learns from trends, identifying
quickly emerging fraud patterns. By integrating and analysing changing,
unstructured, and fast-moving data in ways that humans alone cannot do it,
machine learning employs the running of multiple self-learning algorithms in
parallel to increase fraud detection and prevent it. Additionally, it can
identify rare or never-before-experienced fraud events, automate tedious tasks
and provide an anti-fraud solution that allows merchants, PSPs and their
customers to rest easy knowing they are being protected by a sophisticated
approach.

Milwaukee, WI: Five people, 62 credit cards, and
a nationwide fraud scheme stopped by investigators
A year ago, Spencer Dixon and four of his friends went to Milwaukee's Mitchell
International Airport to fly home to Atlanta. Two of his friends had purchased
the tickets the day before at the American Airlines counter. The group showed up
for the 6:53 a.m. flight as planned. They never made it on board. The Chase
credit card used to buy their tickets was a clone, created using a stolen
number, and Milwaukee County Sheriff's detectives were waiting at the gate. The
group was arrested and found to have 62 credit or bank cards between them — 47
confirmed fraudulent — and $17,000 in gift cards. Soon, detectives and
prosecutors realized they had hit upon something much larger: a nationwide
credit card fraud scheme.

Allentown, PA: Police investigating dead Walmart
shoplifter's link to Schuykill County thefts
While fairly certain he’s their guy, state police investigators are continuing
to investigate whether Aaron Ibrahem, the man shot dead when he fired at a state
trooper last week during a shoplifting attempt at a Lower Macungie Township
Walmart, was behind a string of retail thefts at Walmart stores in Schuylkill
County, including one where he pulled a gun on an employee. “We’re still working
on that for a positive confirmation,” Lt. Joseph Sokolofksi, of PA State Police
Criminal Investigations Unit, said. “It would appear by the m.o. and the
surveillance footage that it is one and the same.”

Tip of the Day
Sponsored
by Vector Security Networks
|
The age of the email has truly changed the way humans communicate both
personally and professionally, with emails becoming that fast pitch right down
the middle and stinging the catcher's hand when they least expect it, and
oftentimes first thing in the morning before you've even had time to drink your
first cup of coffee. It has almost become an accepted practice for many to
compose their negative or conflicting thoughts about the days' events or
conversations and push that send button after everyone has left so they don't
have to face the receiver and so that they can almost act innocent the next day
as if some imposter sent it the night before. It's almost as if the email world
has offered some sort of anonymity to senders, even when it comes from their own
address.
Just a Thought,
Gus
