The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
Tracking Theft Networks Nationwide
The money train: How digital clues help Chicago investigators track
theft networks
Retail crime intelligence
company Auror helps investigators identify possible connections
between thefts across the country.
 Catching
someone breaking into a freight container is one step. Identifying
who buys the stolen merchandise — and who ultimately profits —
can require following a network across stores, state lines and
international borders.
How digital clues help
In a follow-up to FOX Chicago's reporting on cargo theft and
suspected resale operations, a representative of retail crime
intelligence company
Auror explained how information collected by retailers can help
investigators connect cases.
"We’ve seen offenders that can have 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 events
across the country," said Raul Aguilar, Auror's head of law
enforcement partnerships for North America.
Aguilar said intelligence from the platform is shared with Cook
County Sheriff's Commander Michael Ware and other investigators
working to identify suspected repeat offenders.
Connecting reports across stores
Auror provides software that participating retailers use to
document thefts and other incidents after they happen. Reports
can include what was stolen, descriptions of the people involved,
potential vehicles and whether someone used a weapon.
The platform's analytics help identify possible connections across
retailers, giving investigators a way to examine incidents that
might otherwise remain in separate reports. Aguilar said delays
in sharing information can make it harder for law enforcement
agencies to recognize those connections.
The software can provide investigative leads. Establishing
whether incidents are connected and proving criminal conduct still
requires police work and evidence.

Inside the Retail Fraud
Underground:
The Schemes Targeting Retailers Ahead of the Holiday Season
Flashpoint analysts examine the fraud schemes targeting
retailers, from refund abuse and gift card fraud to compromised
ecommerce sites, and the tactics circulating across illicit
communities ahead of the holiday shopping season.
As retailers prepare for the holiday shopping season, increased
transaction volumes, promotional activity, and customer service
demands create additional opportunities for fraud. Fraudsters
exploit routine retail operations, including shipping, returns, and
payment processing, while the seasonal surge in legitimate activity
can make suspicious transactions more difficult to identify.
Across illicit online communities, threat actors exchange refund
fraud techniques, advertise access to compromised ecommerce sites,
recruit participants for gift card schemes, and share methods for
circumventing retailers’ loss prevention controls. Flashpoint
analysts monitor these communities to understand how fraud schemes
operate, how tactics are shared, and where retailers may face
increased exposure.
Refund Fraud: Exploiting Retail Policies
and Shipping Processes
Fraudulent returns and refunds remain persistent challenges for
retailers, with threat actors sharing methods designed to
exploit delivery verification, return policies, and customer service
procedures. In illicit communities monitored by Flashpoint, actors
exchange advice on which retailers to target, which claims are most
likely to succeed, and how to circumvent existing fraud prevention
measures.
Several recurring techniques appear in these discussions:
-
Did Not Arrive (DNA):
Fraudsters falsely claim that a delivered package never arrived.
A variation, known as Partial DNA (PDNA), involves claiming that
only certain items within an order were missing.
-
Empty Box: Actors
acknowledge receiving a shipment but claim that the package
contained no merchandise. Discussions surrounding this method
frequently address shipping weights and delivery records.
-
Wrong Item: Fraudsters claim
to have received an incorrect or lower-value product, sometimes
returning a substitute item while retaining the original
purchase.
-
Double Dip: Actors seek a
replacement shipment following an alleged delivery issue, then
submit a subsequent refund claim.
-
Lost in Transit Return (LITR):
Fraudsters claim that merchandise was returned but lost before
reaching the retailer, complicating verification of the return.
These methods vary in
complexity, but many depend on creating uncertainty around what
was shipped, delivered, or returned. Flashpoint has also
observed discussions involving fraudulent tracking information,
manipulated shipping labels, and individuals claiming access to
shipping or courier operations.
Some schemes extend beyond individual fraudsters. Illicit
communities include advertisements for refund services and
discussions of methods that can be applied against multiple
retailers, demonstrating how knowledge of successful techniques
circulates among participants.

New Zealand Retailers Pledge
Worker Safety
New Zealand: ShopCare Launches Retail Safety Pledge
ShopCare has launched a national
Retail Pledge, calling on retailers and organisations across the
supply chain to recognise workplace violence and aggression as a
critical health and safety risk.
The initiative follows the September 2026 ShopCare National Customer
Aggression Survey, which found that 91 percent of the 2,538
customer-facing workers surveyed had experienced aggression in the
previous 12 months. Among retail respondents, the figure was 90
percent.
The findings have reinforced concerns about the treatment of
frontline workers and the need for employers to take practical steps
to prevent harm, respond to incidents, and support affected staff.
Through the ShopCare Retail Pledge, participating organisations
formally acknowledge occupational violence and aggression as a
significant workplace risk, requiring the same attention as other
critical health and safety issues.
Signatories commit to identifying risks, introducing appropriate
controls, improving incident reporting, and ensuring workers receive
support when violence or aggression occurs. The pledge also
encourages organisations to share information, learn from industry
experience, and promote respectful behaviour.
A central part of the commitment is ensuring that incidents are
properly reported and followed up. ShopCare's research found that
27 percent of respondents who experienced abuse had not reported it
to their employer, highlighting the importance of workplace
reporting systems and employee confidence in management responses.
The pledge also extends beyond individual retailers. ShopCare is
encouraging suppliers, landlords, technology partners, industry
bodies, and policymakers to participate, recognising that
improving safety requires cooperation across the retail sector.

Global Experts Urge Stronger
Anti-Counterfeit Cooperation
Knowledge sharing key to counter threats from illicit goods
Counterfeit vapes and illicit
medical products on the agenda at conference in Bangkok
Stronger information sharing across borders and sectors is
essential to counter the growing threat posed by counterfeit,
substandard and mislabeled products, experts meeting in Bangkok have
warned.
The impact of intellectual property (IP) crime extends far beyond
copyright violations: illicit products can undermine legitimate
businesses, weaken local economies, damage the environment and put
consumer lives at risk. IP crime can also fuel broader criminal
activity, with the transnational organized crime groups involved
often linked human trafficking, corruption and money laundering.
To address this global issue, 450 participants from 52 countries
and 255 organizations gathered in Bangkok this week for the 2026
International Law Enforcement IP Crime Conference (27–29 October),
co-hosted by INTERPOL and the Royal Thai Police, in partnership with
UL Standards & Engagement (ULSE).
Under the theme “Bridging Borders: From Regional Action to Global
Impact,” the event brought together law enforcement agencies,
prosecutors, private-sector leaders, academics and IP crime experts
to share findings and best practices, and to develop innovative
investigation techniques and practical strategies.
Speakers put the spotlight on counterfeits that put consumers at
direct risk, including vapes, lithium-ion batteries, fire safety
devices, automotive parts and medicines. Attendees also shared
trends and case studies on counterfeit personal care products,
sportswear and fast-moving consumer goods, including food, beverages
and household products.

Holiday Rush Puts Retail Worker Safety
in Focus
Retailers Urged to Prioritize
Frontline Worker Safety During Holiday Rush
As stores prepare for the busiest
shopping period of the year, workplace safety experts emphasize the
importance of employee training, hazard prevention and operational
readiness.
 By
the D&D Daily staff
With the holiday shopping season approaching, retailers are preparing
for increased customer traffic, extended operating hours and greater
demands on frontline employees. While much of the focus remains on
sales performance and customer service, workplace safety is becoming an
equally important consideration for retail operations and asset
protection teams.
The holiday rush introduces a range of workplace hazards, from
crowded sales floors and congested stockrooms to employee fatigue,
improper lifting and increased pressure on seasonal workers. These
challenges can create conditions that increase the likelihood of
injuries, operational disruptions and preventable safety incidents.
For loss prevention and asset protection professionals, maintaining a
safe retail environment requires coordination across store operations,
human resources and frontline management.
One important priority is ensuring that seasonal employees receive
adequate safety training before assuming their responsibilities.
Temporary workers may be unfamiliar with store layouts, emergency
procedures, equipment operation and proper merchandise-handling
practices. Providing clear instructions and reinforcing established
safety protocols can help reduce unnecessary risks.
Retailers should also pay particular attention to housekeeping and
merchandise storage. Increased inventory deliveries, promotional
displays and frequent restocking can create cluttered aisles, blocked
emergency exits and potential slip, trip and fall hazards.
Employee fatigue represents another concern during the holiday season.
Extended shifts, unpredictable schedules and demanding customer
interactions can contribute to stress and reduced situational awareness.
Encouraging regular breaks, maintaining appropriate staffing levels and
providing employees with accessible reporting channels can help address
these challenges.
Asset protection teams can play an important role by conducting
routine safety inspections, identifying emerging hazards and working
with store leadership to resolve concerns before incidents occur.
Ultimately, workplace safety should remain a shared responsibility
throughout the organization. By emphasizing preparation,
communication and consistent safety practices, retailers can better
protect their employees while maintaining efficient operations during
one of the industry's most demanding periods.
As holiday traffic intensifies, protecting frontline workers is not
simply a compliance obligation — it is an essential part of
maintaining a productive, resilient and successful retail environment.
Retail Security Expands Beyond Loss
Prevention
Retailers expand physical security strategies beyond loss prevention:
Genetec
Retailers are increasingly using physical security technology to
improve operational efficiency, employee safety and customer
experiences, moving beyond its traditional role in loss prevention,
according to a new report from Montréal-based Genetec Inc.
The company’s 2026 State of Physical Security Report, based on responses
from retail professionals worldwide, found that
retailers are placing greater emphasis on using security data to
support broader business objectives while addressing aging
infrastructure and evolving technology requirements.
The findings suggest retailers are also looking for ways to extend
the value of existing security investments rather than replacing
entire systems as they pursue modernization.
Security data takes on broader business role
More than 60 per cent of retailers surveyed identified improving
operational efficiency within their security departments as a primary
objective for using security data. An equal percentage said
improving safety and security remained a top priority.
The report also found that 55 per cent of retailers cited compliance as
an important consideration, while 48 per cent said they were using
physical security data to improve the customer and employee experience.
The findings point to a broader approach to physical security,
with retailers increasingly considering how information generated by
security systems can contribute to day-to-day business operations and
decision-making.
While loss prevention remains part of the security function,
retailers are looking at additional applications that could improve
efficiency and provide greater value from existing technology
investments.

Retail AI Costs Exceed Expectations
Retail AI investment is shifting toward connected operations
Finance chiefs say AI costs are
exceeding expectations, and most merchants say AI tools have had little
effect so far.
Retail and enterprise leaders appear to be facing greater pressure to
connect AI spending with financial outcomes. Pigment’s Q3 CFO Index is
based on a survey of 2,000 CFOs and finance executives across the U.S.,
UK, France, and Germany. It found that 83% said consumption-based AI
costs had exceeded expectations. Confidence in AI’s business value
averaged 8.2 out of 10.
The figures suggest a growing focus on translating AI investment into
tangible operational value as organizations gain a clearer view of
the costs involved.
That pressure may help explain the proliferation of individual AI
applications across organizations. Departments can adopt copilots,
chatbots, and task-specific automations to address immediate needs. That
creates increasingly varied technology environments.
LayerX Security’s State of AI Usage Report 2026 looked at this, as
reported by The Hacker News. It found that AI activity is becoming
distributed across personal accounts, browser extensions, embedded
copilots, connectors, and other tools.

WEBINAR COMING TOMORROW
Introducing Signal: Closing the Loop Between Analytics and
Action
Finding exceptions isn't the hard part anymore. Your analytics
platform surfaces price overrides, no-receipt returns and
stacked discounts every day. The problem is arithmetic: one loss
prevention manager, 40 stores, a few hundred flags a week. Most
of those flags go stale before anyone looks at them. The person
who could close one in 30 seconds is the store manager who knows
the cashier, the shift and the customer, and that person usually
never sees it.
Introducing Signal, a new capability of
Agilence
Analytics, built to get flagged activity into the hands of
someone who can act on it quickly. In this session,
Keneavy Krenzin, Vice President of Product Management at
Agilence,
and
Colin Latch, Product Marketing Manager at Agilence,
will walk through how Signal gives store, district, and regional
managers a focused queue of only the flagged transactions for
the locations they own, with the receipt detail and video
footage they need to make an educated decision in just a few
minutes.

AI Cyberattacks Threaten Retail
Security
AI-Powered Cyberattacks Raise New
Concerns for Retail Security
As artificial intelligence reshapes
cybercrime, retailers face growing challenges protecting their systems,
employees and customer information.
By
the D&D Daily staff
Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing the cybersecurity landscape,
creating new opportunities for retailers to strengthen their defenses
while giving cybercriminals increasingly sophisticated tools to exploit
vulnerabilities.
For retail loss prevention, asset protection and IT security teams, the
growing threat of AI-assisted cyberattacks is adding another layer of
complexity to an already challenging security environment.
Cybercriminals are using generative AI to develop convincing
phishing emails, impersonate company executives and automate portions of
attacks that previously required significant technical expertise. These
capabilities can make fraudulent communications harder for employees to
recognize, particularly in fast-paced retail environments where workers
routinely interact with vendors, customers and internal systems.
One emerging concern involves AI-generated voice and video
impersonations, commonly known as deepfakes. Attackers can
potentially mimic executives or trusted business partners to request
fraudulent payments, obtain sensitive information or persuade employees
to bypass established security procedures.
Retailers also face risks from increasingly interconnected technology.
Point-of-sale systems, inventory management platforms, surveillance
networks and third-party applications create numerous potential entry
points for attackers.
A successful breach involving one system can potentially disrupt
operations across multiple locations, exposing customer information,
interrupting transactions and creating substantial financial and
reputational consequences.
Third-party relationships represent another significant vulnerability.
Retailers frequently rely on outside providers for payment processing,
logistics, workforce management and cloud-based services. A security
failure involving one vendor can potentially expose information or
disrupt operations across an entire retail organization.
However, AI is also becoming an important defensive tool.
Advanced cybersecurity platforms can analyze unusual network activity,
identify suspicious transactions and detect potential threats before
they escalate into larger incidents.
For asset protection leaders, the challenge increasingly involves
coordinating physical security, cybersecurity and operational risk
management.
Employee training, stronger authentication requirements, vendor
oversight and collaboration between security departments remain
essential components of an effective defense strategy.
As cybercriminals continue adopting artificial intelligence,
retailers will need to ensure their security practices evolve just as
quickly. Protecting stores and merchandise remains important, but
safeguarding the digital infrastructure supporting modern retail
operations is becoming equally critical.
New AI Task Force
As the White House touts its AI task force, CISA is conspicuously
missing
Without the cybersecurity agency,
the new group could stumble as it tries to work with critical
infrastructure operators on AI security, experts said.
President Donald Trump’s AI task force says it will ensure that the
government is protecting Americans from the powerful technology’s
cybersecurity risks. The only problem: It’s made no mention of the
federal agency in charge of handling those risks.
The senior government officials leading Trump’s newest AI initiative —
who regularly promote AI’s benefits and say comparatively little about
its harms — have essentially ignored the Department of Homeland
Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) in
their public remarks about the task force. The group has teams
focused on critical infrastructure security and incident reporting,
areas in which CISA has more expertise than any other agency, but CISA
is not leading those teams and might not even be participating in them.
CISA’s conspicuous absence from the task force’s work could presage
serious problems. Without CISA’s deep involvement, experts told
Cybersecurity Dive, the task force risks producing half-baked or
redundant AI security guidance and requirements that confuse or
overburden businesses embracing the technology.
Such outcomes could end up undermining, rather than strengthening,
the business community’s focus on AI security challenges at a time
when the fast-moving technology is increasingly magnifying digital
threats.
The task force sidelining CISA “would be like a football team leaving
its defense at home for the big game,” said Jeff Greene, a former
top official at CISA and the National Security Council.

Using AI to Carry Out Attacks
AI agents scale and speed up Chinese-linked attacks
A China-nexus espionage group used AI agents to attack more than 200
organizations in 11 days, CrowdStrike said last week. On Monday,
Kaspersky published details of a separate campaign against educational
institutions in Africa and Latin America, mounted by Chinese-speaking
operators.
Though the campaigns don’t appear to be connected, they are executed the
same way: a human picks the targets and sets the goals, and a large
language model (LLM) decides which commands to run and sends them to an
implant on the victim’s network.

Turning Stores Into E-Commerce Engines
Are Target's Stores Becoming a Bigger E-commerce Growth Engine?
Target Corporation TGT is leveraging its extensive store network to
support e-commerce growth, with physical locations playing a key
role in fulfilling digital orders. The company's second-quarter fiscal
2026 performance highlights how its integrated model is enabling faster
delivery and convenient shopping options.
Target's digital comparable sales increased 8.7% year over year in the
quarter, led by more than 25% growth in same-day delivery and
accelerating from 4.3% growth in the prior-year period. Digitally
originated sales accounted for 19.6% of merchandise sales, up from 18.9%
a year earlier.
Target uses its network of more than 2,000 stores to fulfill orders
placed through digital channels. Management emphasized that stores bring
inventory closer to customers, enabling faster, more reliable and
cost-effective fulfillment. Its network supports shipping from stores,
Order Pickup, Drive Up and same-day delivery. During the quarter, 97.6%
of merchandise sales were fulfilled through stores, including in-store
purchases and digitally originated orders.
Operational execution is also strengthening. Target fulfilled
nearly 30% more same-day and next-day units than a year earlier.
Inventory reliability reached multiyear highs, with product availability
improving across frequently purchased items.
Target continues to invest in its store infrastructure, opening 17
locations during the second quarter while advancing more than 100
remodels. These investments are expanding and enhancing its physical
network, which remains central to supporting digital demand and
fulfillment efficiency.

Clive, IA: $165K in iPhones, clothing stolen from Utah recovered
during Clive PD traffic stop
Nearly $165,000 worth of Apple iPhones and ALO clothing was
recovered during a traffic stop in Clive in October, prompting the
city's police department to channel its inner Forrest Gump when
posting about the bust on social media. Clive police compared the
unusual stop to a box of chocolates — "You never know what your
gonna get," the post said, quoting Tom Hanks' titular character.
According to Clive Police Chief Mark Rehberg, Clive officers pulled
over a rental car shortly before 3 a.m. on Oct. 2. A criminal
complaint cites the driver's inability to maintain lane of travel as
the reason for the stop. During the stop, the officer reportedly
smelled marijuana, and the driver — 47-year-old Kamau Evans of
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania — allegedly admitted it was in the car.
Evans was eventually arrested on the charge of possession of a
controlled substance but has since bonded out of Polk County Jail.
Rehberg told Local 5 that a search warrant was written for the
rental vehicle, leading to the discovery of 120 iPhones and numerous
articles of ALO clothing.

clearly. But don't poison the well. Life is too long... and the cocktail
receptions are too small.
