The Retail Impact
Regional AP Leader Arrested for Stabbing
Murder
Arrest made in murder of 19-year-old woman from Ecuador found in woods
The Gwinnett County Police Department has arrested Timothy Krueger in
connection with the murder of a 19-year-old Ecuadorian woman.
The
Hall County Sheriff's Office discovered the body of
Sarai Llanos Gomez decomposing in a wooded area off Paradise Point Road
in Flowery Branch on June 20. They later identified the victim on July 25 and
have been actively investigating her death as a homicide since.
Detectives obtained a concealing a death warrant for Krueger and Gwinnett
homicide officials obtained search warrants for his home where he was taken
into custody on Aug. 4. Authorities said he ultimately provided a full
confession.
The 49-year-old confessed to stabbing Gomez several times with a knife which
ultimately led to her death, according to an arrest warrant. The murder
occurred at a home along Cardinal Lake Drive in Duluth, records show. He was
later taken to the Gwinnett County Jail and charged with felony murder and
aggravated assault.
According to LinkedIn, Krueger has been in the loss prevention
industry for 20+ years, most recently as Regional Asset Protection Leader
for Ascena Retail Group. Throughout his career, he has held roles with
Justice, Michaels, and Musicland.
![](http://d-ddaily.com/images/8-7-22_11alivw2.PNG)
Gomez, the victim, was a 19-year-old mother of two children, who moved to the
United States from Ecuador for a better life, and to send money back home, her
family said.
Gomez had moved to the U.S. last year: first to Chicago, then to Atlanta where
she was offered a waitressing job at a Buckhead hotel. But the job wasn’t
what she had signed up for. Gomez's mother said that, instead, it was to
become a sex worker. One day before the disappearance, Sarai told her
mother she tried turning it down.

Murders, Shootings, Thefts & Robberies Surge
in NYC
NYC crime rate climbed 31% in July compared to July 2021 amid surges in murders,
shootings, thefts, robberies
A spike in shootings and murders in July fueled a 31% increase in the city’s
crime rate over the same month in 2021, the NYPD said Friday, continuing to
fuel a hot-button political issue that has the mayor and governor at odds.
Murders were up 34% last month compared to July 2021, the NYPD data
shows. Police counted 47 murders in July 2022, up from 35 committed in July
2021. Shootings were up 13% in July 2022 to July 2021. The city recorded
178 shooting incidents last month, up from 157 it counted in July 2021.
The increased in murders and shooting incidents
combined with spikes in robberies and thefts to boost the overall
crime rate by 31% this July compared with July 2021.
Grand larcenies were up 41% in July 2022
compared to July 2021. Last month, police recorded 4,588 grand larcenies,
which under New York law are thefts of cash or property worth more than $1,000.
That was up by 1,326 from the 3,262 recorded in July 2021.
Robberies were up 37% in July 2022 compared
to July 2021. Police counted 1730 robberies in July 2022, up by 469 from July
2021.
Despite the bump in July, New York City’s murder rate is down 4% so far in
2022 compared to 2022. Police have recorded 253 slayings so far this year,
compared with 264 in the first seven months of 2021. Shooting incidents are
down 9% so far this year, with 816 reported in 2022 compared with 894 at the
same point in 2021.
But increases in other crimes have boosted the citywide crime rate year to
date by 37%, police data shows.

NYC's Bail Reform 'Atom Bomb'
Ex-NYPD top aide John Miller: Bail reform was ‘atom bomb’ that ‘set us back a
decade’
A former top NYPD official said Sunday that state lawmakers “set us back a
decade” by dropping an “atom bomb” on the criminal-justice system with their
2019 bail-reform laws.
Ex-Deputy
Commissioner of Intelligence and Counterterrorism John Miller blasted
the state’s bail-reform measures as “all ideology over common sense,”
saying the laws were pushed by “advocates for people who commit crimes.”
Miller,
who retired from the NYPD a few weeks ago after nearly a decade there, told
radio’s “Cats Roundtable” that violent crime was at its lowest in 2018 and
2019 — before bail reform was passed in Albany.
“And then you saw crime start to climb, and it really set us back a decade
in terms of shootings and murders, which is shame,” Miller told AM 770 host John
Catsimatidis. “It’s like having a cure for a disease and then having the
hospital take the vaccination away.”
Critics of bail reform, including NYC Mayor Eric Adams, have blasted the
laws for allowing repeat offenders back on the streets
and not jailing people accused of violent crimes before trial.
Gov. Kathy Hochul has suggested that
judges are to blame for the ongoing
surge of violence.
“[Legislators] balled [the reforms] into one budget bill and then snuck them out
in the middle of the night. And we’ve been suffering from it ever since,” Miller
said. “I don’t think anybody bothered to read them. I think it was all
ideology over common sense.
“And I think the criminal-justice system is a complex ecosystem where you can
make changes and adjustments, and there are reforms that made sense that are in
there,” he said. “But you can’t do all of that at once and drop it like an
atom bomb on a system that that’s complicated and not expect turmoil."

Note: As pictured above, NYPD Deputy Commissioner John Miller spoke at the
D&D Daily's 2018
"Live in NYC" dinner event, where he addressed a crowd of retail LP/AP
executives, solution providers, and some from the law enforcement community on
the NYPD's counter-terrorism efforts, "precision policing", and the importance
of public-private partnerships in combatting organized retail crime.
Is Nationwide Violence Finally Leveling Off?
A Drop in Murders in the United States
Despite the grim headlines, 2022 is less violent so far than last year.
Crime,
murder and mass shootings have dominated headlines this year. Just over the
weekend, a shooting in Cincinnati wounded nine people, and another in Detroit
killed one and wounded four.
But the full crime data tells a different story. Nationwide, shootings are
down 4 percent
this year compared to the same time last year. In big cities, murders are
down
3 percent. If the decrease in murders continues for the rest of 2022,
it will be the first year since 2018 in which they fell in
the U.S.
The declines are small. But they are welcome news after two years of large
increases left the murder rate nearly 40 percent higher than it had been.
One reason for hope:
The likely causes of the spike in murders in 2020 and 2021 are receding.
Disruptions related to Covid probably led to more murders and shootings by
shutting down social services, which had kept people safe, and closing schools,
which left many teens idle. But the U.S. has opened back up, which will
likely help reverse the effects of the last two years on violent crime.
The aftermath of George Floyd’s murder in 2020 also likely caused more
violence, straining police-community relations and diminishing the
effectiveness of law enforcement. That effect, too, has eased as public
attention has shifted away from high-profile episodes of police brutality.
2020 was a chaotic year overall, with Covid, protests about police and a
presidential election. This turmoil fostered social discord and anomie, which
also
could contribute to murders: As people lose trust in each other and their
institutions, they are more likely to lash out in crime and violence. As the
chaos recedes, the violence may be receding as well.
A balanced view
Experts caution against making too much of the year’s trends. The decreases
so far are relatively small, and they could end up a blip.
Robberies and some property crimes are up in big U.S.
cities. And America still has far more gun violence than its peers,
largely because of
widespread gun ownership. But the trend, right now, is heading in a good
direction.

Amazon's Response to Crime Surge
Amazon Closes Seattle Store Over Safety Concerns
Closing Marks Company's Second Safety Move
in Its Hometown, Latest Withdrawal by Big-Name Retailer
One
of Amazon's pioneering Amazon Go retail locations in its hometown of Seattle
has been closed, a victim — at least for the time being — of
crime and safety concerns in the city.
The move is Amazon's second safety-driven withdrawal in the city in six
months and the latest announcement of such a closing by a major U.S.
retailer.
“We have temporarily closed our Amazon Go store at 4th & Pike in Seattle for
the safety of our store employees, customers and third-party vendors, and
are hopeful conditions in the area will improve and we can reopen in the
future," an Amazon spokesperson said in an email, adding that employees had been
offered positions at other Amazon stores.
Amazon grabbed headlines in March when it announced the reassignment of 1,800
employees from the nearby office building at 300 Pine St., one of the dozens
of properties the company leases or owns in the city center. An Amazon Go store
in that building also closed recently, though the reason could not be
determined.
The Fourth Avenue Amazon Go store is the latest in a wave of closings,
withdrawals or other restrictions enacted by retailers as cities nationwide
have struggled to erase pandemic-magnified blight and street crime from their
urban cores. Among the most noted was Walgreens' decision in October to close
five San Francisco stores because of what it referred to as "organized retail
crime."

Mall of America Bolsters Security After Latest
Shooting
Security boosted at Mall of America following shooting in Nike store
After a gunman fired inside a crowded Nike store at the Mall of America on
Thursday, work is underway to prevent another shooting inside the massive
shopping complex. The Bloomington mall reopened Friday with
more security in place. However, the Nike
store remains closed as investigators work to find the gunman and another man.
As police piece together what happened, store managers in the mall are doing
their own debriefing. April Kimball, the store manager at Home & Beyond, had
gone through a similar experience on New Year's Eve, when a gunman opened fire
on the mall's third level, injuring two people, one of them a bystander.
Kimball says that the response from her staff to this most-recent shooting was
less chaotic and more like a drill. Her staff, which includes her two daughters,
locked the doors, turned off the lights, and took themselves and about a dozen
customers into the back room.
Dozens of security cameras cover the ceilings inside the Mall of America.
One of them is located near the Nike store. However, police have not yet
released the surveillance footage. Shoppers and store managers at the mall
Friday said they noticed extra officers in uniform, as
well as some under cover officers, wearing earpieces and carrying two-way radios.
Crowd sizes, the managers estimated, appeared to be slightly below normal.

Police Response Times to Retailers Won't be
Improving Any Time Soon
‘We’re triaging’: Cops combat violent crime as ranks dwindle
From Philadelphia to Portland to Los Angeles, killings and gun violence are
rising at the same time officers worn out by the pandemic and disillusioned
over the calls to divest from policing that followed George Floyd’s murder
are quitting or retiring faster than they can be replaced.
Departments are scrambling to recruit in a tight labor market and also
rethinking what services they can provide and what role police should play
in their communities. Many have shifted veteran officers to patrol, breaking up
specialized teams built over decades in order to keep up with 911 calls.
Police Executive Forum (PERF) Survey: Police Workforce Trends
●
RESIGNATIONS: Increases in
resignations were more significant. Agencies reported an overall 18%
increase in the resignation rate in 2020-21, compared to 2019-20.
●
RETIREMENTS: Increases in
retirements were even larger. Among all responding police departments, there
was a 45% increase in the retirement rate. (In small departments, a small
number of retirements may result in a high percentage increase in the retirement
rate. But even in the largest agencies, with 500 or more officers, the
retirement rate increased by 27%.)

Never-Ending Nightmare for Front Line Workers
For essential workers who suffered through COVID, monkeypox is déjà vu
Union officials warn they are seeing the
same plodding response to monkeypox that they saw in COVID-19
Even
though hundreds are still dying from COVID every day and several thousand
are hospitalized in the U.S., the pandemic has receded into the mid-summer
background hum of American life. Variants come and go, and whatever residual
risks exist for essential workers in healthcare or congregant care we
expect them to just suck it up.
Just like the ever present risk of workplace violence,
including the potential for a random assault rifle attack, it's all part of the
implicit 21st century take-it-or-leave-it social contract imposed on the
essential workforce. Hazard pay? What hazard?
Now, freshly mixed into the risk-threat matrix for nurses and other front
line workers, exposure to the monkeypox virus — which the New York Times
reported was "a virus similar to smallpox" but with symptoms that were "less
severe." The virus, which originated in Africa and was first seen in the late
1950s, is primarily spread through close physical contact, like sex, but
does pose some occupational health risk for healthcare and other frontline
workers in congregant care or hospitality settings.
Public health experts and union officials warn they are seeing the same plodding
response to the monkeypox virus that was so evident during the onset of COVID —
when the lack of testing and contact tracing gave the virus a running head
start. And as with COVID, the failure to contain and limit the occupational
health exposure to the virus put the broader society at risk as healthcare
workers inadvertently spread COVID.

Fall COVID Surge Will Fuel More Remote Work
New Covid Variants Will Fuel Fully Remote Work This Fall
Remote work will win this fall as the threat
of new COVID variants looms large.
The monumental battle over fully remote work is heating up this summer as more
traditionalist business leaders are demanding that their employees come to
the office much or all of the time. The Biden administration predicts COVID
variants may lead to 100 million infections in the fall.
During both the Delta surge and the Omicron surge, traditionalist companies that
tried to force their employees back to the office, and experienced extensive
drama and stress over this approach, had to roll back their plans.
Besides, going back and forth from home to the office and back home seriously
undermined productivity, harmed engagement and morale, and impaired retention
and recruitment. We’ll see the exact same yo-yo effect at Tesla, Apple,
Google, and other companies led by traditionalist executives in a few months.

Employer Response to Monkeypox
Monkeypox: What Does this Mean for Employers?
The latest wave of the COVID-19 pandemic has barely been contained, yet
employers are now being hit with employee inquiries related to monkeypox. As
this virus spreads, states and localities are declaring emergencies while
employers are struggling to determine how to respond to this new challenge,
including what steps they should take to protect their employees in the face of
potential outbreaks.
The good news is that, unlike COVID-19, the monkeypox
virus is not as transmissible in the workplace, medical experts are
more familiar with the virus's transmissibility and symptoms (because it is not
a “novel” virus) and vaccines for monkeypox already exist. Employers should
note, however, that the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA)
requires them to maintain a safe workplace for all employees and in all places
of employment, and that individuals infected with monkeypox may require a
longer recovery period as compared to COVID-19 and other common viruses.

Facial Recognition Tech: Balancing Safety
Benefits & Privacy Concerns
Supermarket chain under fire over its use of ‘Orwellian’ facial recognition
technology and ‘secret watch-lists’ to cut crime
A British supermarket chain is facing a legal challenge over its use of
“Orwellian” facial recognition technology and “secret watch-lists” to cut crime
in its stores.
The
Southern Co-op chain, which has stores across the south of the U.K., has
come under fire from Big Brother Watch, a privacy group, which described the
group’s FaceWatch security system as “Orwellian in the extreme,” “deeply
unethical” and “chilling.”
In a complaint to the U.K.’s Information Commissioner’s Office, Big Brother
Watch said: “The supermarket is adding customers to secret watch-lists with
no due process, meaning shoppers can be spied on, blacklisted across
multiple stores and denied food shopping despite being entirely innocent.”
Southern Co-op’s technology captures images of customers as they enter,
converts those images into biometric data, and compares that information to a
database of known individuals who have committed crimes or displayed
antisocial behavior in their stores. It is a list of individuals identified by
the company—not a list of people with criminal convictions.
In response, the supermarket told Fortune: “We would welcome any
constructive feedback from the ICO as we take our responsibilities around the
use of facial recognition extremely seriously and work hard to balance our
customers’ rights with the need to protect our colleagues and customers from
unacceptable violence and abuse.”
The supermarket added that, “The system does not store images of an
individual unless they have been identified and evidenced as an offender,
including those who have been banned/excluded.”

Security Staff Shortages As Rowdy Crowds
Increase
After Reopening, Sports Venues Attract Rowdy Crowds but not Security Staff
The National Center for Spectator Sports Safety and Security (NCS4) surveyed
North American professional sports venue security leaders earlier this year to
learn how they are maintaining or improving security operations, and what sort
of new and evolving challenges they face.
Despite outsourcing 90% outsourcing security, 95 percent of the security
professionals surveyed said they experienced staff shortages over the past two
years.
So why are venues short-staffed? Most security directors cited
COVID-19 (86.8 percent), followed by staff simply not turning up for work (84.2
percent). Seventy percent of survey participants said absenteeism among security
staff has increased since the start of the pandemic.
While they're increasing recruiting and retention benefits and programs these
efforts have helped, she says, however, venue security directors are still
having trouble meeting pre-COVID staff numbers.

Price Gouging Investigation
Tyson Foods refusing to comply with subpoena for meat price gouging probe, NY
attorney general says
Tyson Foods Inc, one of the largest U.S. meat producers, is refusing to
comply with a subpoena for a civil probe into possible price gouging during
the COVID-19 pandemic, New York's attorney general said on Wednesday.
Letitia James, the attorney general, asked a state judge in Manhattan to
require Tyson to turn over materials including contractual terms, prices, and
profit margins for its sales of meat to New York retailers from December 2019 to
April 2022.
James said Tyson stopped complying after providing "limited" information,
based on the Springdale, Arkansas-based company's "novel and unfounded argument"
that New York's price gouging law did not apply to meat imported from outside
the state.

Disappearing Shopping Baskets?
Customers stealing shopping baskets instead of buying bags, NJ supermarkets say
Shortly

They soon realized brazen shoppers who didn’t bring their own bags and didn’t
want to buy 33-cent reusable bags were simply leaving the store with their
groceries stuffed in the shopping baskets.
“They were taking them out and never returned,” said an Aberdeen ShopRite
employee who declined to give her name. “We went down to no hand baskets at
all.”

Last week's #1 article --
#1 Victim of NYC Bail Reform & DA Bragg -
Retailers - Here's the Data!
10 career criminals racked up nearly 500 arrests since NY bail reform began
Stunning
statistics compiled by the NYPD show that the city's alleged "worst of the
worst" repeat offenders have been busted a total of 485 times since bail reform
went into effect in 2020.
The NYPD's list of "notable" career criminals is topped by an unnamed
"Recidivist No. 1" who's been busted arrested a total of 101 times, with 88
coming since bail reform was enacted.
Larceny charges account for 74 of the recent arrests, all of which took
place in Manhattan, where District Attorney Alvin Bragg has
come under fire for the soft-on-crime policies he
imposed after taking office on Jan. 1.
The career crook has 15 convictions, including three for felonies, and failed to
appear in court at least 14 times, leading to the issuance of a "significant"
number of bench warrants, according to the NYPD.
"Recidivist No. 1" has also violated parole and probation and has two pending
prosecutions for thefts from various Target stores on five
separate occasions.

Perfect Storm of Retail Cyber Risks
Back to School Shopping & Retail Cybersecurity
Major transformations to living, working, and learning environments have altered
consumer shopping habits drastically over the last few years. These changes
in behavior parallel the types of cybersecurity risks impacting employees and
organizations.
We previously highlighted the vulnerabilities that result from the
mixing of personal and corporate devices. Today, we explore the larger
retail industry trends impacting internal and external security risks.
With the rise of e-commerce and hybrid work, retailers face the unique hurdle of
understanding how emerging technology trends designed to support businesses in
this new era of work could also impact the cybersecurity posture of their entire
industry. As retailers across the globe look to harness the latest
data-driven technologies to improve sales, the attack surface for cybercriminals
is expanding rapidly. This has left many playing catch up, creating an
immediate and urgent need for enhanced security solutions.
Since the onset of the pandemic, we have seen a
3x increase in use of corporate assets for personal activities, including
the use of social media, shopping for goods and services, trading stocks, and
more. Moreover, our data shows that 3-8% of a retail organization’s employee
base performs personal shopping activities on a corporate asset within a single
month.
The same tactics retailers are using to reach consumers
also pose a risk to their own organizations—and hackers know it. The
stakes are even higher for retail organizations that need to protect corporate
data and sensitive customer information like credit card numbers and bank
information.
From an insider risk perspective within the retail industry, we’ve seen an
increase in employees using their access privileges to search for, copy, and
steal discount codes and coupons. There is also increased evidence that they
are looking for employee discount codes in addition to other deals they may find
online.
On top of this, growing uncertainty and fear surrounding
potential layoffs can be a powerful driver of insider threats. This is
especially true for retailers who already grapple with high employee turnover
rates, short-term seasonal employees, and managing the access of third-party
payment services. As we embrace this new era of work-from-anywhere, it’s
critical that retailers take a proactive,
human-centric
approach to managing internal and external risks in this evolving landscape.

Weekly Ransomware Attacks
A third of organizations experience a ransomware attack once a week
Ransomware
attacks show no sign of slowing. According to new research published by Menlo
Security, a third of organizations experience a ransomware attack at least
once a week, with one in 10 experiencing them more
than once a day.
When asked what keeps them awake at night, 41% of respondents say they worry
about ransomware attacks evolving beyond their team’s knowledge and skillset,
while 39% worry about them evolving beyond their company’s security
capabilities.
Their biggest concern, however, is the risk of employees ignoring corporate
security advice and clicking on links or attachments containing malware (46%).
Respondents worry more about this than they do their own job security, with just
a quarter (26%) of respondents worried about losing their job.
According to the report, around half of organizations (61% US and 44% UK)
have been the victim of a successful ransomware attack in the last 18 months,
with customers and prospects the most likely entry point for an attack.
Cost of recovery from ransomware attacks underestimated
The survey shows that the average estimated cost is $326,531, with insurance
payouts extending up to an average of $555,971 – although a significant
minority (24%) admit they don’t know the value of their insurance policy or if
they have cover. Industry figures, however, show the average total cost of
recovery from a ransomware attack in 2021 was $1.4 million.
Ransomware demands – to pay or not to pay?
There is also some debate about whether to pay a ransomware demand or not.
32% of decision makers worry about the risk of paying a ransomware demand and
not getting their data back. Yet nearly two-thirds of respondents would pay
a ransomware demand. Almost a third (31%) say it’s down to their insurance
company to pay it, and nearly one in five say the government should pay. 27% of
respondents say they would never pay a ransomware demand.

American Data Exposed by the Courts?
Federal courts left Americans' data exposed, senator tells Supreme Court
A top Democratic lawmaker is urging U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John
Roberts to address the federal court system’s decades-long failure to secure
Americans’ most sensitive personal information in court filings.
“Federal court rules — required by Congress — mandate that court filings be
scrubbed of personal information before they are publicly available,” Sen. Ron
Wyden, D. Ore., wrote Thursday in a letter to Roberts, first shared with
CyberScoop. “These rules are not being followed, the courts are not enforcing
them, and as a result, each year tens of thousands of Americans are exposed
to needless privacy violations.”
The letter follows a recent report by the court system’s top policy-making body
showing that the body has been inconsistent in enforcing existing privacy rules
and enacting new ones. For instance, the recent report cites a 2015 study, which
found that of the nearly 4 million documents posted during a one-month period
in 2013, nearly 5,500 included “one or more un-redacted SSNs.”

Global Twitter Breach
Twitter breach exposes anonymous accounts to nation state hackers
Twitter confirmed Friday that a bad actor used a vulnerability to match private
information with potentially anonymous Twitter accounts, posing risks to
users privacy.
The vulnerability allowed someone to match an email or phone number to any
Twitter accounts tied to that information and the name of the accounts,
Twitter wrote in a press blog.
“We can confirm the impact was global,” a Twitter spokesperson said in an
email. “We cannot determine exactly how many accounts were impacted or the
location of the account holders.” No passwords were compromised in the breach.

A Bit on Bias Early in my career, I
attended an interview training course (not with WZ) where the instructor said,
“you know what the best way to deal with bias is? Don’t have any.” That line of
thinking is what gets good interviewers stuck in bad situations—it’s impossible
to rid yourself of all bias. Truth be told, the correct answer to the question
of, “you know the best way to deal with bias?” is this, “develop a strong sense
of emotional intelligence and work towards not let your bias influence your
approach.”
Bias generally manifests itself in one of two ways, consciously or
unconsciously. Conscious biases are on the surface. We recognize our affinity
for one thing over another and lean into those preferences. Some conscious
biases are more-less harmless—preferring a certain sports team over another or
having a preference towards one brand of toothpaste over the thousands over
other choices. Other forms of conscious bias, however, can be destructive—these
tend to be categorized as discriminatory thoughts and behaviors.

FTC Turns Up the Heat on Amazon
FTC deepens investigation into Amazon Prime, sending out subpoenas and other
demands for information
The FTC is deepening its investigation into Amazon's sign-up and
cancellation processes for Prime.
The Federal Trade Commission has deepened an investigation into Amazon's
Prime subscription service and whether the e-commerce giant intentionally dupes
consumers into signing up for the membership program.
The inquiry focuses on Amazon's use of ambiguous language and design in its
Prime sign-up and cancellation processes, commonly known as "dark patterns."
Internal documents
reported by Insider in March showed that Amazon has for years worried about
customers feeling tricked into signing up for Prime but opted not to use
clearer language because it didn't want to slow the growth of its
subscription business.
As part of the investigation, the FTC has been recently reaching out to current
and former Amazon employees and has sent out subpoena letters in some
cases, according to people familiar with the matter. These people asked not to
be identified because they are not authorized to speak publicly about the
inquiry.
One of the subpoena letters sent in recent months was reviewed by Insider. It
said the FTC made a Civil Investigative Demand to Amazon in March 2021. A CID is
a legal document enforceable in court that seeks documents or other information
related to an FTC investigation. The agency sends CIDs to get information
from companies it thinks may have violated the law, according to the FTC
website.
In April, the FTC sent more correspondence about the issue to Amazon lawyers,
according to the letter, which cited
Insider's story from March of this year.
Typically, the FTC would proceed to file a lawsuit against Amazon in a case like
this, according to the people familiar with the matter. The agency could later
drop the case or reach a settlement depending on the evidence it gathers. Amazon
could also slow down the process by filing a petition with the FTC to quash the
subpoena requests.

AI vs. Counterfeits
This West Hollywood Startup Uses AI to Track Fashion Counterfeiters
As
ecommerce continues to grow and the global market is expected to hit
$5.5 trillion this year, more brands are turning to digital loss
prevention to stem losses – and prevent getting a bad rap for faulty fake
products.
One local startup based in West Hollywood is betting that using artificial
intelligence is the key to identifying counterfeit items and removing them from
the marketplace by scanning over 1,500 online retailers across 115 different
countries and comparing the minute details of their products to original
items in order to weed out fakes.
MarqVision raised $20 million this week to continue developing its software that
scans for counterfeit items in a bid to prevent fraud. It will also use the
funding to expand its operations, with plans to open its first European outpost
in Paris this fall (the company already has offices in Boston and South Korea).
The company was incubated and funded by Y Combinator and launched two years ago.
According to
Pitchbook data, it has raised just over $28 million following this round
from investors including SoftBank and South Korean firm Bass Investment.
CEO and Massachusetts Institute of Technology alumni Mark Lee co-founded
MarqVision with Chief Business Officer Do Kyung Lee in 2020. Since then the
company’s attracted clients including Niantic’s Pokemon, Seoul-based jewelers
Didier Dubot and Ralph Lauren. MarqVision claims it removed
$1
million worth of counterfeit Ralph Lauren merchandise in online marketplaces
aimed at Korean shoppers as part of a case study.
Lee told TechCrunch Tuesday that the platform has a 97% accuracy rate and
claimed the software can “process thousands of reports every hour” without
the need for humans manually sorting and filing the paperwork to brands once
they detect a fraudulent item. He also hinted that alongside physical
merchandise, MarqVision might soon expand its platform’s capability to recognize
counterfeit NFTs.
“Creative assets are under assault in today’s digital world, with content owners
left largely unprotected as consumers get hoodwinked into buying fake goods and
NFTs by sophisticated counterfeiters,” Lee told TechCrunch. “Unlike our
competitors, which are forced to review manually in time-consuming processes,
MarqVision’s process end-to-end is mostly automated.”

That Makes it $70.7M in Fraudulent Cell Phone
Sales is Past Week Alone in 3 Cases
Another $4.7M in Apple iPhone Fraud - This Time Going the Other Way - Selling
Them Overseas
California
man was sentenced today in the Eastern District of New York to four years in
prison for defrauding American Express of approximately $4.7 million and for
laundering the proceeds of his fraud.
According to court documents and evidence presented at trial, between November
2017 and December 2019, Jasminder Singh, 45, of Fremont, used four business
entities that he created and controlled and 10 American Express credit cards in
those entities’ names to purchase thousands of Apple iPhones. He then sold
the iPhones to overseas purchasers for millions of dollars. As part of his
scheme, Singh falsely told American Express that he was unable to repay
approximately $4.7 million in charges incurred from the purchase of the
iPhones, and created fake payment invoices in order to secure additional credit
from American Express. Singh then used the proceeds of the scheme to pay for
personal expenses and to buy luxury items, including a $1.3 million home and a
luxury vehicle.
Singh was ordered to pay $4,651,845.08 in restitution and ordered to forfeit
$3,018,602.22.

Cargo Theft
Overhaul warns of new cargo theft methods in Southern California
A cargo theft crew in Southern California has developed new methods in the
"strategic theft" category that involve posing as legitimate carriers, and
continues to be "highly active," according to a press release from Overhaul, a
freight visibility company. Overhaul said the same crew had some of its members
arrested in May of this year, and that they target "electronics and other
in-demand products," and typically strike just before the weekend to make sure
more time passes before victims realize what has happened. "This crew uses
strategic methods to steal shipments, arriving as a double- or triple-brokered
carrier with drivers that have stolen or otherwise falsified CDLs," Overhaul
said. "They will operate as a legitimate carrier, frustrating investigative and
recovery efforts until the cargo is transloaded into a different trailer and
stolen. If an investigation into noncompliance events is attempted, plausible
excuses are fabricated. For shipments without compliance monitoring, these
thefts will go unnoticed until the shipment fails to arrive at its destination
or comes with significant product missing." Thefts are typically scheduled so
that the pickup and delivery are separated by a weekend, allowing for more
non-business hours to stage and transload the shipment, Overhaul said. Red flags
Overhaul said that indicate a shipment should not be given over to a driver
include: CDL photo that don't match the driver (ask for alternate forms of ID)
Temporary signage or recently-painted-over logos on a tractor and/or trailer
Nuts instead of rivets on trailer seal hasps Temporary (paper) or missing
license plates and drivers’ licenses. Any mismatch between the carrier's USDOT
number and safer.fmcsa.dot.gov information.

"Build the field and they'll come to play!" An expression that many never truly
understand or practice. Especially in today's world where we're all expected to
do more with less and corporate America has tightened the budgets to the levels
most of us have never seen before. Having faith that your performance will bring
promotions, increased salaries, and new jobs is very difficult in today's
climate. But we all have to keep the faith and do our best every day regardless.
Because at the end, it's what defines us and sooner or later our positive
actions will pay off.
Just a Thought, Gus
