Auror recently shared an
interview with its new Regional Director for the United Kingdom, Mark Gleeson.
Check out the excerpt below, and
visit Auror's website
to read the full conversation.
What excites you about Retail Crime Intelligence for
the UK market?
I’m extremely excited to leverage Auror’s experience with both retailers and law
enforcement globally, and adapt that to the UK market. You only need to look at
today’s UK papers to see that Organised Retail Crime and aggression is on the
rise. With a market-leading platform, I’m excited to partner with retailers and
police to tackle those challenges head on. We’ve got case study upon case study
of Auror genuinely helping the lives of frontline retail staff, making it easier
to report crimes and critically, making them safer in their roles. From my
previous experience, I understand the power of building a credible intelligence
network in order to make informed decisions in harmful environments. If you can
stop these actions happening at source, using data and analytics, then it’s
powerful and extremely motivating for all involved. It takes a network to defeat
a network.
Can you summarize your career journey before Auror?
I’ve got a real blend of military and commercial experience. I spent my former
years as an RAF Regiment officer, specialising in advising foreign militaries,
security forces, and government department. This included operations in
Afghanistan and West Africa, commanding various team structures, often working
with police and intelligence specialists. My commercial experience has been
focused around consulting to large multinationals, whether that be conducting
major transformation programmes, advising on post M&A Integration & Separation
projects, or as the Chief of Staff to the NHS CEO on Project Nightingale. We
built a hospital from scratch in nine days; it was quite the challenge! Most
recently I’ve been working for a technology company as the Global Partnership
Director.

The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
Regional AP Leader's Murder Case
Man stabbed teen in the back, slit her throat before dumping body in Flowery
Branch, detective says
A
Duluth man stabbed a 19-year-old Atlanta woman in the back and drove around
in a panic before dumping her body in a wooded area of Flowery Branch,
according to testimony Friday, Aug. 19, in Gwinnett County Magistrate Court.
Timothy Krueger Sr., 49, appeared in court with defense attorney Scott
Drake for charges of felony murder and aggravated assault in the June 16 death
of Sarai Llanos Gomez. Gomez’s body was found June 20 in a wooded area of
Paradise Point Road in Flowery Branch after a homeowner smelled a strong odor in
the neighborhood.
Gwinnett County Police Cpl. John Jorstad said Gomez was a female escort,
who used a separate number advertising her services. With phone records, Jorstad
said they were able to determine that Krueger’s number communicated with
Gomez’s number more than 70 times between June 10 and June 16.
When interviewed by police after his Aug. 4 arrest, Krueger said he did not know
Gomez’s name and was expecting a different woman to show up at his house that
night. Krueger told police he thought the woman he was communicating with and
Gomez “were trying to play some kind of trick on him,” Jorstad testified.
Jorstad said there was a language barrier between them during a disagreement, as
Krueger thought he was being swindled. At one point, Gomez became
fearful and grabbed a kitchen knife from the knife block, Jorstad said.
“He said he just remembered kind of tussling with her, grabbing the knife from
her and then she turned to walk away, at which point he stabbed her in the
back,” Jorstad said. Gomez fell to the ground, and Krueger “stated he
just wanted it to be over, so he stabbed her a few more times and then he
cut her throat,” Jorstad said.
“When my client was talking about the stabbing, did he indicate that he was
acting in self defense?” Drake asked “It did not seem that he was acting in
self defense,” Jorstad said. “He said that she had turned her back to him
and was walking away.”

Kentucky Debates Whether to Enact INFORM Act
to Battle ORC
Judiciary committee hears testimony on law to combat organized retail crime
The Interim Joint Committee on Judiciary heard testimony on Thursday about a
potential law to address the threat of organized retail crime.
Shannon Stiglitz, the senior vice president of government affairs for the
Kentucky Retail Federation, was joined by representatives from Walgreens and
Kroger to share the effect of organized retail crime in Kentucky.
The FBI defines organized retail crime as “professional burglars, boosters,
cons, thieves, fences and resellers conspiring to steal and sell retail
merchandise obtained from retail establishments by theft or deception.” Much
of the stolen merchandise ends up on online marketplaces.
Stiglitz emphasized that organized retail crime refers to organized groups of
people, not an individual shoplifter who will steal only the things they
want or need. She also noted that some of these groups are violent toward anyone
who interferes with them as they steal.
Stiglitz encouraged lawmakers to consider enacting the Integrity,
Notification and Fairness in Online Retail Marketplaces for Consumers, or the
INFORM Act. It would require online marketplaces to collect certain
information from high-volume, third-party sellers to verify that the products
are legal. Eleven states already have the INFORM Act in
place.
“What you all are presenting to us, it’s not going to get any better until we
change our philosophy,” Sen. Danny Carroll, R-Benton said. “Until we go back
to treating criminals as criminals and holding them accountable for what they
do, it’s not going to get any better.”
Stiglitz did mention laws Kentucky already has to combat organized retail
crime during her presentation. KRS 506.120 makes organized retail crime a
class C felony. She said some prosecutors and law enforcement officers are
not aware of this law and how to use it, so education is an important factor in
addressing the issue.

U.S. Mass Killing Data
Mass killings database reveals trends & details in every US event since 2006
High profile public shootings in the US are
only a portion of the country's mass killings AP, USA TODAY and Northeastern
University analysis shows.
The horror and tragedy of mass shootings in American schools, churches,
grocery stores and other public places capture the nation's attention. But
these are only part of the larger violence of mass killings – deaths by guns,
knives, fires, vehicles and other weapons in public and in private – that
plague the U.S., research shows.
Over the past decade, USA TODAY, along with Northeastern University and The
Associated Press, has been tracking all mass killings in the United States. When
it comes to gun violence, our database is narrower than other tracking sites,
such as the Gun
Violence Archive, that include shootings that injure large numbers of people
but kill no one. However, our data is broader in other ways. It includes
every mass killing since 2006 from all weapons in which four or more people,
excluding the offender, were killed within a 24-hour time frame.
The number of mass killings in 2022 is about average compared with previous
years despite recent shootings that captured public attention. The number
of victims is somewhat higher than average but still below previous highs.
Cases in which someone shoots strangers in a public place usually get the most
attention. But fatal public shootings are a small fraction of all mass
killings. There has been a spike in these types of killings over the past
few years, but the rate of occurrence has remained relatively flat since the
mid-2000s.

Have You Updated Workplace Violence Prevention
Plans?
3 ways to update a workplace violence prevention plan
A decade-old plan won’t cut it anymore,
according to one expert. Employers must address changes brought about by
COVID-19 and advancing technology.
Recent reports of workplace violence — coupled with an
increase in certain violent crimes, generally — mean it’s time for employers
to update their workplace violence prevention and mitigation plans,
according to one expert.
The last few years have brought
a jump in homicides, Daniel R. Pascale, executive vice president at
Margolis Healy and Associates, pointed out in an August 3 webinar. And sadly, he
said, “we’re going to see that spill into the workplace.”
Update protocols affected by technology
Technology has evolved such that employers cannot rely on workplace safety
plans drafted 10 years ago, Pascale said. Company plans often called for
reliance on tools like pay phones or worksite landlines, for example. Employers
must go through their facilities, he said, and rewrite policies with today’s
tech landscape in mind. Similarly, cybersecurity protocols should be
updated, he said.
Add hybrid work risks
The increase in remote and hybrid work driven by the coronavirus pandemic also
necessitates a shift in how employers think about workplace safety,
Pascale said. Some employees are on video calls with co-workers or clients all
day, with the contents of their home on full display. Some have
work-related packages arriving to and shipping from their homes daily, meaning
a range of couriers know where they work and that they’re shipping legal
documents or IT hardware.
Conduct de-escationation and active assailant training
Finally, employees should know how to “lower the temperature” in situations
that could escalate into violence, Pascale said. Employers cannot expect
that workers will know how to handle an employee or co-worker who is screaming,
for example; they need training on when and how to create distance between
people, when to reach out for help and ways to ensure they remain physically
safe, Pascale said. This is particularly important for
the healthcare and retail industries, he added. The same goes for
active assailant training, Pascale said. Such efforts empower employees,
teaching them what action is best for them.

'Most Sweeping Law to Seal Criminal Records'
California advances broadest US law sealing criminal records
California would have what proponents call the nation’s most sweeping law to
seal criminal records if Gov. Gavin Newsom signs legislation sent to him
Thursday by state legislators.
The bill would automatically seal conviction and arrest records for most
ex-offenders who are not convicted of another felony for four years after
completing their sentences and any parole or probation. Records of arrests that
don’t bring convictions also would be sealed.
It would take effect in July, and excludes those convicted of serious and
violent felonies, and felonies requiring sex offender registration.
Proponents say about 8 million Californians have a criminal or arrest record, or
about one of every five state residents. A criminal record can trigger nearly
5,000 legal restrictions in California, many of which can limit job
opportunities as well as the ability to get housing and educational
opportunities, supporters said.
They estimate that 70 million people nationwide face nearly 50,000 legal
restrictions based on a criminal or arrest record.
Nationwide, 37 states and more than 150 cities have adopted laws preventing
employers from asking candidates about their criminal histories prior to a
job offer, according to the National Employment Law Project. This law would go
further by automatically sealing convictions for people who meet certain
conditions.

Did COVID-Era Mask Mandates Fuel Robbery Wave?
California store bans masks after thieves use them to avoid identification
The California store owner said customers
who still want to wear a mask can schedule an appointment
One
store in Beverly Hills, California is banning visitors from wearing masks,
citing the recent wave of robberies in which employees have been unable to
identify thieves because their faces were covered.
The owner of the boutique clothing store, Kitson, said he has noticed
a "disturbing" trend of people using masks to avoid
detection,
according to FOX 11.
"The mask mandate may have begun as a health precaution but we believe it is
now being used by some people for nefarious purposes. To that end, we
enacted our own mandate of sorts," Fraser Ross said. "We
do not allow the wearing of masks in the store during regular business hours.
Those people who wish to wear masks are free to set up an appointment for a
personal shopping experience or visit our website."
A sales associate at the store also said that the recent crime wave at the
store has stopped some people from shopping there.
Many businesses around the country have implemented mask recommendations or mask
requirements for customers in an attempt to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.
Hemenway also said that in recent robberies, even their high-end cameras
haven't been able to identify the suspects due to one issue: Masks.
According to the sales associate, other stores within the area are also
seeing robberies, forcing some stores to shut down.

AT&T Employees Start Petition to Keep Remote
Work Permanent
AT&T employees ‘forced’ back to the office started a Change.org petition to make
remote work permanent
Like
most people, AT&T workers would rather work from home than in person.
Through their union, Communications Workers of America (CWA), they struck a deal
with the telecom giant a few weeks ago to extend their remote policy through
March 2023. But, they say, AT&T is forcing many of them to return sooner than
that—some workers are already back.
“The extension agreement allows us to go back to working from home in a
crisis—but we know of call centers and payroll departments that have had
outbreaks, and they are not going back to working from home there,” Kieran
Knutson, an AT&T call center worker of 18 years, tells Fortune.

How China’s strict Covid policies led to supply chain bottlenecks
At the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, China’s strict “zero-Covid” policies
managed to keep Covid-19 at bay. More than two years later, the country’s
ongoing controls are still weighing down its economy and stalling global
supply chains.
Major trade hubs such as Shanghai and Beijing, after responding to waves of
omicron-driven infections, require workers to have negative Covid tests to enter
public spaces. The demanding quarantine and testing rules have thwarted truckers
on roads as well, driving up the amount of time it takes for goods to get to
Chinese ports for export.
That’s not to mention the poor weather, labor challenges and abnormal demand
patterns that have also added to supply chain disruptions.

Grocery Stores Fueling a Shopping Mall Revival
Can Grocery Stores Save the American Mall?
Under siege even before the pandemic struck,
the suburban shopping meccas may have hit upon a survival strategy.
With
pandemic precautions falling by the wayside and brick-and-mortar shopping
eyeing a revival, it’s looking like there may be a strategy for the old
standby to survive amid the hordes of Amazon delivery vans. Grocery stores.
When the Westfield Oakridge mall in San Jose, California opened the popular
Asian grocery store chain 99 Ranch Market in March, its debut saw lines
snaking out the door. Since then, the mall’s foot traffic has jumped,
with customer visits up more than 10% in July compared to pre-pandemic
levels, according to traffic analytics firm Placer.ai.
In addition to grocery store staples like produce and meat, the supermarket has
also attracted shoppers with its dining hall and tea bar. What’s surprising is
99 Ranch took up residence in one of the mall’s anchor spots, which had
typically gone to massive chains like Target Corp. or Macy’s Inc. It’s the
supermarket’s first location inside a megamall.
Grocery stores have been a growing US consumer segment over the last few years.
Except for so-called value outlets and “dollar” stores, grocers have had the
most store openings, outpacing home improvement, electronics and superstores,
according to an analysis of store openings between 2019 and 2021 from Green
Street. The firm's research shows adding a grocer can
boost traffic by upwards of 20% at a shopping center.

Walmart Wades Into Abortion Debate
Walmart will cover abortion care for 1.6 million employees
Leaked memo says retailer will cover
abortion costs when the mother's health is at risk and cover travel costs in
other cases.
Walmart
is expanding its healthcare coverage to include abortion care for its 1.6
million workers.
Insider reviewed a leaked memo from the chain's chief people officer, Donna
Morris, that read, "Effective immediately, the Walmart self-insured
healthcare plans will cover abortion when there is a health risk to the
mother, rape or incest, ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage or lack of fetal
viability."
The company will also "provide travel support for our associates and
their covered dependents so they can access services covered by our Walmart
self-insured plan when they are not available within 100 miles of their
location."
The memo said that "more information regarding these benefits" will be
released in "the coming weeks." Experts say that Walmart, along with other
top employers, will face recruitment and retention struggles in red states due
to the repeal of
Roe v. Wade.

Amazon Continues to Struggle with Physical
Stores

Amazon has struggled to open physical stores
amid high costs and tension
Amazon is pausing the rollout of self-checkout Amazon Fresh stores
following disappointing sales and economic headwinds,
The Sunday Times reported. Sources told the UK newspaper that Amazon had
walked away from talks on dozens of new sites for its grocery stores and
ended searches for new locations.
Most existing Fresh stores had fallen short of sales projections,
according to the report, while the costs of building the outlets dwarfed those
typically associated with other convenience stores. The Sunday Times reported
that some store openings would go ahead if leases had already been signed.
The news marks the latest in a stunted rollout of Amazon's physical presence,
after years of success as an online retailer. In addition to poor sales and
rising costs,
Insider reported that a dysfunctional team culture and tension with Whole
Foods, the retailer it
bought for $13.7 billion in 2017, were also contributing to delays.

National Cybersecurity Alliance & Amazon
Launch Cybersecurity Partnership
Protect yourself online with tips from Amazon & National Cybersecurity Alliance
Amazon and the National Cybersecurity Alliance’s PSA campaign features
actor Michael B. Jordan and actress-producer Tessa Thompson as “internet
bodyguards.”
You can protect yourself online—that’s the message Amazon and the National
Cybersecurity Alliance want to share with millions of consumers through a
newly launched cybersecurity awareness campaign. The public service
announcement (PSA) campaign,
Protect & Connect,
stars Prime Video actor Michael B. Jordan and actress-producer Tessa Thompson as
internet bodyguards.
As
phishing scams and other online cyberattacks become increasingly common,
consumers can grow apathetic. In fact, research shows that even as the number
of cyberattacks increased, concern around internet security fell between 2019
and 2020. But consumers can take simple steps to help protect themselves and
their information online—no security expertise required.
“Empowering people with the knowledge and tools to operate safely online can
help them protect their own personal information while combatting cyber threats
of all kinds,” said Steve Schmidt, Amazon’s chief security officer. “Our
goal is to give people simple, concrete steps to take, like enabling
multi-factor authentication, that have meaningful security impact despite
the complex security threats that exist.”
Amazon leveraged the creative power of the Prime Video team to conceptualize the
PSA and connect with top talent. They brought the message of personal agency to
life with the help of Jordan and Thompson.
“The importance of protecting yourself online can’t be overstated. With this PSA,
we wanted to create a memorable, informative, and actionable piece of content
that will inspire our communities to consider their online safety more carefully,”
said Sarah Hamilton, head of Global Brand Creative and Strategy at Prime Video.
“Audiences will see celebrated action heroes Michael B. Jordan and Tessa
Thompson naturally slip into the role of ‘internet bodyguards,’ sharing simple
ways everyone can be safer online.”
In addition to the PSA, the campaign includes a microsite for consumers,
protectconnect.com. It includes additional videos for visitors to learn
more about multi-factor authentication (MFA) and how to identify and avoid
phishing attempts. The site also has interactive content to test consumers’
knowledge on best practices for keeping safe online.

Collecting Data on Employees
Workplace Monitoring: 3 Steps to Balance Employee Productivity and Privacy
Collecting and analyzing employee
performance data can improve efficiency, but make sure employees see the value
in it.
According to an
Insider Threat Report, 94% of companies deploy some method of monitoring
users. They do so despite the fact that very often
workplace monitoring results in adverse employee reactions, low employee
morale, and high turnover.
According to a
Harvard Business Review survey, “90% of employees are willing to let
their employers collect and use data on them and their work, but only if
they benefit in some way.”
1.
Tell the Employees
The first step is to share with employees the goal of the effort. Articulate a
vision guided by a simple but powerful principle: you can’t fix what you can’t
see. Passive observation and data collection will be one way to gather, measure,
and improve performance. Tell them which data you plan to collect, how it will
be collected, why it is important, and how it can improve their day-to-day jobs.
2. Involve Employees in the Process
Bring the finance team into the conversation about how this data could be used.
Let them share their concerns, but also ask them how they could benefit. Discuss
how they and their manager can use these metrics to identify areas where they
have process or application expertise.
3. Provide Value to Employees
Harvard Business Review notes that if companies wish to collect data, “they
will need to forge a new ‘give and get’ relationship with employees and share
more control with them over their own data.” Giving employees direct access to
the data can provide valuable and tangible “evidence” of their expertise (and
potentially help them advocate for themselves) as well as identify areas for
improvement. Giving them control over their data can also illuminate best
practices that can be shared among coworkers. Better insights make for more
engaged team members, and this is mutually beneficial for the employee and the
employer.

$100M in Losses for Apparel Manufacturer Hit
by Ransomware Attack
Ransomware attacks increasing in frequency, spreading in reach
Ransomware attacks, like the one that cost Hanesbrands Inc. about $100
million in second-quarter sales, are increasing in frequency among
corporations facing uncertain prospects of a complete restoration and recovery.
The Winston-Salem-based apparel manufacturer reported in a May 31
regulatory filing that it began experiencing the ransomware attack on May 24.
Hanesbrands disclosed Aug. 11 in its second-quarter earnings report that its
global supply chain network and ability to fulfill customer orders were affected
for about three weeks.
“At this time, we believe the incident has been contained,” the manufacturer
said in a separate quarterly regulatory filing Aug. 11. “We have restored
substantially all of our critical information technology systems, and
manufacturing, retail and other internal operations continue. There is no
ongoing operational impact on our ability to provide our products and services.”
A 2021 study by Cloudwards determined that 37% of all U.S. businesses and
organizations have been a ransomware victim, with 32% of those group paying
the ransom, but only 65% getting all of their data back. A 2022 survey by
HornetSecurity.com
found that 21% of respondents to a ransomware study had been a victim and 9.2%
“were left with no choice but to pay the ransom to recover their data.”
HornetSecurity said the average downtime a company experiences after a
ransomware attack is 21 days, while the average ransomware amount that
companies were forced to pay in 2020 was $170,404.
“While the cost of that downtime alone can be fatal for many companies,
that is without taking into consideration the cost of data recovery, the payment
of the ransom and long-term brand damage,” HornetSecurity said.

From Russia With Love
Russian citizen faces federal money laundering charge in alleged $400,000
ransomware attack
A new indictment alleges a Russian citizen extradited this week from the
Netherlands to Portland laundered more than $400,000 in cryptocurrency
extracted from ransomware attacks in the United States in July 2019.
Denis Mihaqlovic Dubnikov, 29, entered a not guilty plea through his attorney to
one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering during his first appearance
in federal court on Wednesday afternoon.
According to the indictment , Dubnikov and his alleged accomplices laundered
payments extracted from victims of what’s known as Ryuk ransomware attacks.
Altogether the conspiracy is alleged to have laundered more than $70 million
in ransom proceeds worldwide, the indictment says.
Ryuk attempts to delete any backup files present on a computer or network and
then begins to encrypt files, according to prosecutors. A “ransom note” is
also placed onto the computer system when files are encrypted, providing email
addresses typically via a foreign, web-based provider that the victims can use
to contact the individuals deploying the ransomware. The alleged Ryuk actors
also provide a bitcoin wallet address that victims are directed to use to pay a
ransom to have their files decrypted, according to the indictment.
The ransomware conspiracy attacked thousands of victims worldwide, including
thousands in the United States and multiple in Oregon, the indictment says.
The indictment, heavily redacted, doesn’t identify the victims of Dubnikov’s
alleged crime.

The Sound of Silence Interviewers
have a habit of talking too much and listening too little. Traditionally, an
investigator has wanted to dominate the conversation and prohibit the
interviewee from speaking or interrupting. If we consider our goal of the
interview – obtaining actionable intelligence – then its an obvious
contradiction for the interviewer to impede the interviewee from talking. Truth
be told, often our biggest opportunity is to simply just “shut up and listen”.
The context of the conversation is important prior to using this strategy, as
the interviewer will want to “Engage and Explain” the process with the
interviewee at the onset of the conversation. This may be through the
Introductory Statement in the WZ Method, Facilitating Expectations in the
Participatory Method or simply providing some instructions in the Cognitive
Interview. Once we question the interviewee, the interviewer should (don’t be
surprised here) actually listen to the answer!

Fighting Counterfeits Worldwide
The Global Impact Of Counterfeiting And Solutions To Stop It
As
technology has become more sophisticated, so has the ability of criminals to
steal IPs and sell fake goods. While new technologies like QR codes, NFC
chips and proprietary tracking software offer new ways for businesses to protect
their brand and products from theft, many view counterfeiting as a standard cost
or brand protection as simply more money than it's worth.
How Counterfeiting Affects Global Business
Retailers and luxury brands experience the most harm from counterfeiting,
especially ones that sell their products on global marketplaces. While
counterfeiting is hard on these businesses, it also comes with wider
geopolitical consequences. For example, IP theft from criminals in China
was partly responsible for tariffs levied by the U.S. a few years back.
How Counterfeiting Impacts Brands
Brands have to worry about both legitimate competitors eating up market share
and counterfeiters who destroy trust. Beyond taking revenue away from a
business, counterfeiting also affects the consumer's ability to trust their
goods in an open marketplace. Without proper security and tracking measures,
consumers rapidly lose trust in brands to protect their customers from theft.
IP and brand protection company IncoPro found that 52% of consumers lost trust
in a brand after purchasing a fake good online, while 64% lost trust in online
marketplaces. This actually led Nike to stop selling its products on Amazon.
Ways Brands Can Reduce Counterfeiting
1. Track And Trace Networks
The ability to locate products through GPS allows full traceability through the
supply chain and promotes greater transparency. With proprietary and serialized
codes, businesses can monitor products, pallets and shipping containers
across their supply chain. These codes can be scanned using a standard
smartphone to authenticate or with proprietary technology to provide higher
levels of security. Unique covert taggants and inks can further add to the
complexity of the security, so brands have complete control in the fight against
counterfeit and diversion of products.
2. Online Brand Protection
Online IP theft is especially devastating for startups, whose equity and value
are often a measure of their intellectual property. Fortunately, anti-piracy
algorithms and broad tracking networks allow brands to track and identify
violations relating to their products so brands can protect their business's
IP.
3. Digital Printing
The development of sophisticated, high-speed digital print processes allows
brands to print variable, dynamic serialization codes both overtly and
covertly on packaging, labels and a wide range of substrates. This helps with
traceability, authentication, track and trace and consumer engagement.

Online Shopping Cart
Abandonment
Online Checkout Optimization Is Essential: Do Checkout Services Oil The Wheels
Of ECommerce?
eCommerce
spending jumped 55% during the Covid pandemic, and many of those shopping
behaviors are now cemented in habit. The surge in eCommerce continues as
consumers value speed and convenience as well as cost savings. But as
shoppers buy from an expanding array of merchants, they experience intense
frustration when forced to sign in or navigate a clunky checkout. We
consider how a new breed of checkout assistance services reduce friction and
offer benefits to all.
Recent Fidelity National Information Services (FIS) research suggests that
70% of online shopping carts are abandoned at the cart
or checkout phase. While people love online shopping, they hate
friction and one in four will abandon a purchase at the earliest sign of
slowdown. Most people simply want to browse, shop, then get on with their day.
For nearly half of shoppers, creating an account is a major frustration. A
dopamine hit of a potential purchase quickly turns to discord and disappointment
if there is checkout difficulty. In an ideal world, 70% of people say they would
opt for a single, secure account for everything.
While a single universal account remains an aspiration, the market is
rising to this unique challenge. A growing network of shopping validation
providers – such as Bolt and Shopify - make it easier for shoppers to checkout
and pay, quickly and securely. These companies also help to reduce cart
abandonment by offering a one-click experience.

Schererville, IN: 1 shot, 2 in custody after robbery suspects ram police SUV
while trying to get away
A
police-involved shooting ended with one man in the hospital and two others in
custody after a robbery at an Indiana sporting goods store Saturday. Authorities
said as the suspects were trying to escape, they rammed their vehicle into a
police squad SUV and that's when officers opened fire. "It's horrific! I'm in
this shopping mall multiple times a week, sometimes 9 o'clock at night and I
have never felt unsafe, un-secure, or worried about my safety," said Mary Kate
Tesky, who lives in Munster, Indiana. A shattered window and a looming police
presence is what remains in the aftermath of a violent scene that blocked the
entrance of Dick's Sporting Goods in Schererville for hours. The area was closed
after Lake County, Indiana, sheriff deputies said officers with the Schererville
Police Department shot one of three people trying to get away with stolen
merchandise. "It's unfathomable and it's unacceptable," Tesky said. Police were
called to the store around 4:30 Saturday afternoon. When officers were
confronted by the trio, who were trying to drive away, the suspects rammed their
vehicle into a police squad SUV, officials said. That's when shots were fired by
officers, striking one of the suspects. No officers were hurt. Police said the
two other suspects were taken into custody. It is believe these suspect may be
connected to multiple Dick Sporting Goods robberies in the Chicago area.

Fort Wayne, IN: Suspect sold items – bought with stolen credit – at pawn shop
A 26-year-old Davenport man faces felony charges after Davenport Police were
forwarded a case of identity theft from the Fort Wayne, Indiana, Police. Jeffrey
Stoffers faces charges of identify theft over $1,500 and under $10,000, and
second-degree theft, court records say. On April 22, Stoffers acquired
merchandise from Best Buy fraudulently, police say in arrest affidavits. Police
say Stoffers used identification information of a victim to obtain credit
through Progressive Leasing, a separate entity through Best Buy for customers to
make payments on purchases. The credit received was between the amount of $1,500
and $10,000, affidavits say. Around 8:22 a.m. on April 22, Stoffers made an
online purchase, using that credit, for several items at Best Buy in Davenport.
Best Buy surveillance shows a black 2013 Ford Focus enter the Best Buy parking
lot. Stoffers was the driver, affidavits say. The Best Buy transaction was set
for curb-side pickup. Stoffers left the parking lot with merchandise
fraudulently purchased with the victim’s personal information, affidavits say.
On June 2, Davenport Police served a search warrant on Stoffers’ home address.
An item from the Best Buy purchase was located inside the residence along with
packaging and instructions from the other products. Information was received
that the defendant had pawned another item from the Best Buy transaction,
affidavits say. Detectives responded to Premier Jewelry & Loan, picked up the
item and confirmed Stoffers pawned it using his state-issued identification
card. Stoffers, who was released on his own recognizance, is set for a
preliminary hearing Sept. 9 in Scott County Court.

San Antonio, TX: Suspects arrested in robbery at South Park Mall threatened to
shoot Macy’s employees and store
San
Antonio police made a second arrest in connection with a robbery at South Park
Mall this summer. Victoria Cantera, 31, was taken into custody on Saturday and
charged with two counts of aggravated robbery, records with the Bexar County
Jail show. Her co-defendant, Jesse Delacruz, 34, was arrested Tuesday on the
same charges. An arrest warrant affidavit states that Cantera went into Macy’s
at South Park Mall on June 19 and stole multiple items. Two employees confronted
her as she left with the unpaid items. Delacruz, who was parked outside the
store, then approached the employees with a sharp object, the affidavit states.
The victims described the sharp object as an ice pick or screwdriver. The
employees said Delacruz threatened to harm them, and Cantera told Delacruz to
“get his gun and shoot the victims and the department store,” the affidavit
states. The employees let the suspects leave the mall. Police said the suspects
drove off in a green, four-door Acura. The suspects were seen in the same car on
July 11 and were pulled over by police. Delacruz was arrested for unrelated
charges, but police said it appeared they were the suspects in the aggravated
robbery. The Macy’s employees later identified them as the suspects, and

Being too close to the trees to see the forest is an expression that also fits
not appreciating the role you play on your own team. With the needs of the day
seemingly always taking priority, it's difficult for some to step back and truly
see the value you can add to your own team. Realizing it and accepting the
responsibility as a team member is half the battle. But doing something with it
and truly adding value is what helps the team win the game. Every group, every
department is, in fact, a team and every member plays a vital role in the
success and the survival of that team. That's why that old expression - One for
all and all for one - took such a hold in literature. Because it is that simple.
The hard part is taking responsibility for it.
Just a Thought, Gus
