The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact

First-of-Its-Kind Nationwide Retail Crime Crackdown in 28 States
Nationwide coordinated retail crime crackdown results in hundreds of arrests, authorities say

A nationwide coordinated crackdown on retail crime — what authorities are calling the first of its kind — led to hundreds of arrests in 28 states last week.

The blitz involved more than 100 jurisdictions and over 30 retailers including Home Depot, Macy’s, Target, Ulta Beauty, Walgreens, Kroger and Meijer.

A nationwide coordinated crackdown on retail crime — what authorities are calling the first of its kind — led to hundreds of arrests in 28 states last week.

The blitz, led by Illinois’ Cook County regional organized crime task force, involved more than 100 jurisdictions and over 30 retailers including Home Depot, Macy’s, Target, Ulta Beauty, Walgreens, Kroger and Meijer.

“When you give specific focus to a crime, it reverberates,” Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart told CNBC. “When they see it is being prosecuted and taken seriously, it deters conduct. They don’t want to get caught.”

Organized retail crime — a type of shoplifting where groups of thieves work together in targeted operations to turn stolen goods into cash — has grown in scale and scope in recent years. CNBC previously reported on the extensive law enforcement efforts to take down retail crime organizations.

While aggregate numbers for retail theft are difficult to quantify, retailers reported 93% more shoplifting incidents on average in 2023 compared with 2019, according to a survey conducted by the National Retail Federation. Those surveyed also reported a 90% increase in the associated dollar losses over that same time period.

Some critics point to a lack of enforcement and felony thresholds for allowing criminals to continue committing theft. It’s something Cook County State’s Attorney Eileen O’Neill Burke has been focused on since taking office in December.

The goals of the coordinated operation, O’Neill Burke told CNBC, is “to have one day where we focus and concentrate on [retail theft] and we share intelligence about it — about what we learned about the network, so that gives us more tools on how to take this network down.”

It was the coordination between law enforcement and prosecuting attorneys that got a number of the involved retailers to participate in the blitz. cnbc.com

The Nationwide ORC Push - Will It Work?
Will a Nationwide Crackdown on Organized Retail Crime Significantly Curtail Theft?
Organized retail crime (ORC) has been a hot topic for those who follow retail news headlines for some time now. The term typically refers to shoplifting involving numerous thieves who work together in planned operations, with the eventual goal of fencing stolen goods for liquid assets, primarily cash.

Now, according to CNBC, authorities across the U.S. appear to be ramping up efforts to crack down on those involved in organized retail crime, with hundreds of arrests being made spanning 28 states last week alone.

While nearly all retailers providing comment to CNBC signaled a continued commitment to working with law enforcement to combat retail theft, representatives from Ulta Beauty, Walgreens, and Home Depot offered up more specific remarks.

“Collaboration is key to making a meaningful impact,” Ulta Beauty SVP of loss prevention, Dan Petrousek, told CNBC. “That’s why we were proud to participate in the National ORC Blitz alongside dedicated law enforcement and prosecutorial partners.”

“Organized retail crime remains one of the most significant challenges in our industry,” Marty Maloney, Walgreens’ director of media relations, stated. “In this most recent operation we worked closely with law enforcement partners across nearly 20 cities and at over 40 locations to help curb this trend.”

A representative speaking on behalf of Home Depot offered a mixed report, however. According to internal data, the company reported that a drop in overall theft was in evidence, but also that incidents of organized retail crime had ticked upward by double digits in 2025, year-over-year. retailwire.com

Business Owners Applaud New Homeless Arrest Plan
Business owners, public safety personnel rally in support of San Jose homeless arrest proposal

The City Council will vote next week whether to move forward with a proposal to cite or arrest unhoused residents who repeatedly refuse available shelter

For countless business owners and neighborhood leaders, these incidents are the consequences of the status quo, which is why they are rallying support for Mayor Matt Mahan’s controversial proposal to cite or arrest homeless residents who repeatedly turn down available shelter.

Next week, the City Council will vote on the Responsibility to Shelter proposal, which seeks to incorporate the expectation of accepting shelter into the city’s code of conduct for encampments.

Months ago, when Mahan first unveiled the controversial policy, the idea was to amend the municipal code to allow the city to arrest or cite unhoused residents for trespassing if they refused available shelter three or more times over 18 months.

Without a requirement to accept help, Rast said she fears more people will languish on the streets. While residents and business owners acknowledged the hardships faced by people experiencing homelessness, they said the status quo was not serving anyone. mercurynews.com

The Real Cause of Target's Woes
Is Target Blaming Boycotts For Its Slump?

The country’s seventh largest retailer has been the bullseye for grassroots consumer boycotts, but the real cause of its woes is in the c-suite.

For a moment there, at the onset of the COVID-19 quarantine, Target seemed to be riding high on a wave of innovation that broke out when retailers of every stripe and category had to scramble to save their businesses from a global catastrophe. As we reported here in 2021, Target managed a rapid roll-out of an experimental click-and-curbside-collect program while simultaneously building out a credible e-commerce platform to drive sales.

What went wrong? A series of clear leadership missteps? Among the explanations was a boycott over an in-store Pride Month promotion in 2023 that backfired spectacularly.

But in the head-to-head competition with rivals, Target has seemed to be running a me-too campaign.

It was late in developing a robust line of private label merchandise, far behind Walmart and Costco. And the company ballyhooed a long-term plan to add 300 mostly full-sized locations just as its rivals were planning smaller stores in neighborhood shopping centers.

Finally, four days after the new administration took office in November, Target dismantled its DEI efforts—in which it had invested a lot of brand capital—which unleashed a fresh wave of scorn.

The latest news is more bleakness for the nation’s seventh-largest retailer. Since January, foot traffic has been steadily declining. The company’s management has been mostly silent, according to a recent report on Forbes, and analysts describe the company’s woes as self-inflicted” and its leadership as “drifting.” firstinsight.com

Retailers to Blame for Return Explosion?
Are Retailers To Blame for Return Abuse?
A new survey finds consumers believe retailers are at least partly responsible for fraudulent returns, with 68% believing retailers make it easy to abuse flexible return policies.

The survey of over 4,000 U.S. and U.K. consumers from Forter, which helps online sellers reduce fraud, found nearly half (49%) admit to abusing retailers’ policies in the last 12 months. Of the offenders, 29% did so to avoid paying full price.

Approximately 30% of all respondents admitted to wardrobing — using an item and then returning it as if it were unused — but that figure jumps to nearly half among those aged 18 to 34. Of the respondents, 21% also acknowledged that they had deliberately over-purchased to qualify for free shipping, with the intent to return the extra items.

At the same time, the survey found that nearly half (48%) of U.S. and U.K. consumers are buying more from retailers with lenient return policies due to financial concerns, with 16% having stopped shopping with a retailer altogether because they made their return policy stricter.

Forter warned that a “one-size-fits-all approach” to combat return fraud may turn away good customers. Ozge Ozcan, chief customer officer of Forter, said, “By knowing who they’re doing business with, retailers can strike the crucial balance between customer-friendly policies and protection against serial abuse.” retailwire.com

Tariffs No Big Deal for Dollar General?
Dollar General is benefiting from economic uncertainty

More middle- and higher-income shoppers are turning to Dollar General, management said, helping the discounter beat Q1 expectations and boost its full-year outlook.

Dollar General is one of the vanishingly few retailers to upgrade both its sales and profit outlook for 2025, signaling confidence in its ability to mitigate tariffs and attract customers with its value proposition.

While Dollar General’s core low-income customer is under serious pressure, that’s being offset by growing “trade-in” behaviors from higher-income consumers, who are spending more of their discretionary dollars at the retailer.

1 in 4 Dollar General consumers report having less income than the year before, while nearly 60% of its core audience feels they’ll have to sacrifice necessities in the coming year, according to the retailer’s internal surveys.

Any reduction in spending from those shoppers has been more than offset by an influx of new customers with more disposable income, who are enthusiastically spending beyond the essentials.

Dollar General is poised to benefit as uncertainty and rising prices drive consumers to prioritize value. While the retailer isn’t ruling out tariff-related price hikes, it—like Best Buy and Target—sees them as a last resort, and one that shouldn’t diminish its price gap relative to competitors. content-naf.emarketer.com

Tariff Mitigation Strategies Working at Costco
Costco holds prices on some tariff-impacted items, CFO says

The warehouse club retailer has sought to eliminate the tariff impact on certain “staple” goods prices but sees flowers as “discretionary,” CFO Gary Millerchip said.

Costco Wholesale’s tariff mitigation strategies have included pulling forward purchases of sporting goods and summer-related items ahead of the levies, rerouting goods sourced from countries with “large tariff exposure,” and buying more of its store brand Kirkland Signature product in countries or regions where the items are sold, executives said on the company’s earnings call Thursday.

CEO Ron Vachris noted the company has undertaken a “strategic movement of goods” and capitalized on its limited SKU count and global footprint to deliver strong financial results and competitive prices despite the challenging macroeconomic backdrop. retaildive.com

Can Costco's New Tech Eliminate Long Lines?
Costco Tests New 'Scan & Go' Checkout Feature to Eliminate Long Lines
Long checkout lines at Costco may soon become a thing of the past, as the company is testing new technology designed to get shoppers out the door faster. During Costco’s fiscal third-quarter earnings call, CEO Ron Vachris reportedly announced that the retailer is piloting a new checkout process aimed at speeding up transactions.

The concept allows customers to use their phones to scan items and pay—bypassing the checkout line entirely. This could significantly improve the overall shopping experience and reduce wait times.

“We’ve also engaged in some ‘Scan & Go done by Costco’ tests that have been extremely successful in moving people through lines and expediting transactions,” Vachris said during the call. “The early results have been very positive, with great adoption from our members.”

While the idea isn’t entirely new—Sam’s Club has had similar technology in place for years—it marks a major step forward for Costco. finance.yahoo.com

Staying Secure in an Evolving Threat Landscape
How to manage your cyber risk in a modern attack surface
According to research, 62% of organizations said their attack surface grew over the past year. It’s no coincidence that 76% of organizations also reported a cyberattack due to an exposed asset in 2024, as expanding digital footprints often outpace security measures, leaving vulnerabilities unnoticed and unaddressed.

So how exactly can organizations keep up and stay secure in this evolving landscape? In this article, we’ll cover some major attack surface risks to be aware of, and explain how tools like External Attack Surface Management (EASM) and Digital Risk Protection (DRP) can provide security teams the insight they need to stay ahead of threats.

The evolution of the modern attack surface

As organizations accelerate their digital transformation efforts, their external digital footprints are expanding faster — and becoming more fragmented — than ever before. From rapid cloud adoption and remote work to continuous application deployment and third-party integrations, today’s IT ecosystems are largely decentralized and constantly evolving.

While this digital expansion drives agility and innovation, it also introduced a growing set of blind spots in an organizations attack surface. IT teams are often unable to keep track of every asset they have exposed to the internet, with unknown subdomains, unsecured APIs, forgotten development or deployment environments and abandoned cloud resources all becoming easy entry points for threat actors to strike. The growth of open-source components, SaaS platforms, and ephemeral infrastructure make matters worse, all but eliminating the traditional network perimeter. helpnetsecurity.com

Salesforce Targeted by Voice Phishing
Hackers abuse malicious version of Salesforce tool for data theft, extortion

A threat group is using voice phishing to trick targeted organizations into sharing sensitive credentials.

A financially motivated hacker group has been targeting Salesforce instances for months in a campaign that uses voice phishing to engage in data theft and follow-on extortion attempts, according to Google Threat Intelligence Group.

The hackers, whom Google tracks as UNC6040, impersonated IT workers and tricked employees at often English-speaking branches of multinational companies into sharing sensitive credentials that were then used to access the organizations’ Salesforce data, Google said in a blog post published Wednesday.

As part of the social engineering campaign, the hackers tricked workers at these companies into visiting the Salesforce-connected app setup page, at which point the attackers used an unauthorized, malicious version of the Salesforce Data Loader app to access and steal sensitive information from the customers’ Salesforce environments.

Beyond the immediate data thefts, the hackers were able to move laterally within target networks, accessing victims’ other cloud services and moving into internal corporate networks. cybersecuritydive.com

Are Security Pros Falling Behind?
48% of security pros are falling behind compliance requirements
32% of security professionals think they can deliver zero-vulnerability software despite rising threats and compliance regulations, according to Lineaje. Meanwhile, 68% are more realistic, noting they feel uncertain about achieving this near impossible outcome.

Software compliance adoption varies across organizations

Despite the lack of visibility, the survey found that 48% of security professionals are falling behind global SBOM compliance regulations, including the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memo M-22-18, Executive Order 14028, and the EU Cyber Resilience Act.

Lack of compliance opens organizations up to significant fines, potential data breaches, and hurts security-minded customer prospects. 47% have not started SBOM integration or are presently evaluating tools and practices, despite legislation potentially opening their organizations up to legal and financial penalties.

Security teams lack tools to analyze SBOM vulnerabilities

In addition, 38% of respondents noted they prioritize the most vulnerable areas within their applications. While this may sound positive at first, this means they are leaving the supposedly less vulnerable areas within the software supply chain open to attack.

With advancements in AI, all vulnerabilities are now exploitable. For example, GPT4 can write exploits for 87% of known vulnerabilities. Without full visibility into all of the software supply chains’ dependencies, many organizations are likely underestimating risks.

Unfortunately, 29% of teams still lack the tools and processes needed to analyze SBOMs for vulnerabilities. Without the ability to correlate SBOM data with known weaknesses or automate risk prioritization, organizations face delayed threat times, widening the window of opportunity for attackers to exploit security weaknesses.

Amazon Becoming Top Destination for Groceries
How paper towels, avocados, and bananas became some of Amazon’s most frequently purchased items

With over $100 billion in gross sales of groceries and household essentials in 2024, Amazon has become a go-to destination for grocery shopping for over 150 million Americans.

Groceries—from household essentials and pantry staples to fresh produce, dairy and meat—are among the items most frequently purchased in Amazon’s online stores.

Amazon offers broad selection of nearly 3 million grocery and household essentials, from center-of-store selection like household and beauty items and non-perishable foods, to perimeter-of-store aisles with fresh produce, dairy, and meat, all with consistently low prices.

In the first quarter of 2025, Amazon’s everyday essentials—comprising groceries and household essentials—grew more than twice as fast as all other categories in the U.S., and represented 1 out every 3 units sold. aboutamazon.com

AI to Build on Best Buy's E-Commerce Success
Best Buy wants AI to offer customers fewer — but more relevant — search results

The enhanced search experience will build on the electronics retailer’s e-commerce success, which was a bright spot in an otherwise lackluster quarter.

Best Buy will roll out an AI-powered search experience across its website and app in the coming year for customers and employees, executives said on a Q1 2026 earnings call Thursday.

The updated search engine uses AI prompts to guide customers to more specific searches, according to CEO Corie Barry. The experience is designed to produce fewer but higher-quality results that offer more information and better reflect customer intent.

The electronics retailer will update the in-store shopping experience as well. Plans range from special experiences for the Switch 2 console product launch to department-based training for associates. retaildive.com

Developing your verbal skills and focusing on your specific word usage to convey messages is incredibly important for any successful executive. However, developing your ability to listen and hear what they're saying is just as important and in some cases may be even more so. It's great to be able to articulate in a manner that shows your subject matter expertise, but it's even better if you can mold it and change it on a dime based on what you're hearing and seeing. And if your too busy talking, you may just miss the entire conversation and say something that doesn't even fit. Active listening requires focus and attention and, as Abraham Lincoln said, "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt."
