The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
What the $10M Home Depot Bust Reveals
About ORC in 2025
ORC in 2025 is big business, and addressing
it requires coordinated action
Home Depot Bust is Snapshot of a Larger Nationwide Problem
 By
the D&D Daily staff
The massive theft ring takedown out of Southern California (published
in yesterday's edition of the D&D Daily) — which authorities say
is the largest in Home Depot’s history — isn’t just about one
company or one crime ring. It’s a case study in how far Organized Retail
Crime (ORC) has evolved, and how disruptive it has become to the retail
landscape as a whole.
Scale and Sophistication
This wasn’t a handful of shoplifters. It was a coordinated network
using booster crews, warehouses, and online marketplaces to move
millions in stolen goods. That structure mirrors what we’re seeing
across the industry: ORC groups operating like professional supply
chains, complete with logistics and distribution.
Retail Under Siege
For retailers, the Home Depot case underscores the ongoing drain ORC has
become. The losses aren’t just measured in merchandise — they
ripple through higher security costs, staff safety risks, and consumers
facing fewer open floor displays and more locked cases.
Law Enforcement and Legislative Pressure
If there’s a silver lining, it’s that high-profile cases like this
one are raising awareness. Federal proposals such as the Combatting
Organized Retail Crime Act, along with multi-state crackdowns, show that
the issue is no longer viewed as local nuisance crime but as a national,
organized threat.
The Takeaway
The Home Depot bust is just one snapshot of a much larger problem. ORC
in 2025 is big business, and addressing it requires coordinated
action from retailers, lawmakers, and law enforcement.
Stores Hit with ‘Swarming Gangs’ of
Machete-Wielding Youths
Australia: Victorian IGAs locking doors to avoid ‘swarming gangs’ of
machete-wielding youths
The boss of a major supermarket chain has revealed an extreme new
move in the face of a $15 million problem.
Supermarkets in Victoria have taken to locking their doors out of
fear of “swarming gangs” of machete-wielding youths, who rove
from store to store terrorising staff and customers while stealing
cash, liquor and cigarettes — only be let out on bail the same day
they’re arrested.
Fred Harrison, chief executive of Ritchies Supermarkets, has blasted the
Victorian government and “soft” judges over the state’s spiralling crime
crisis, revealing shoplifting has doubled in the past three years to
cost the retailer roughly $15 million annually.
“We’ve got stores in NSW and Queensland — touch wood, we haven’t had one
incident,” Mr Harrison told news.com.au on Thursday.
“The government has a lot to answer for. The fact that it’s a
Victorian-centric problem speaks volumes about the culture that’s
beginning to build. Unless the courts, government, police are going to
take far more serious action, this is going to become a regular part of
our life.”
Ritchies operates 85 IGA stores nationally, mainly in Victoria, and
employs more than 6000 staff. Mr Harrison said his Victorian stores
were being hit at least once a week, and “at one stage it was happening
a couple of times a week”.
Ritchies set up a WhatsApp group with around 50-60 Victorian stores
in response to the attacks, which mainly occur in southeast
Melbourne. “We set it up because when these gangs strike, they rarely go
after just the one store, they’ll come out and hit four, five or six
stores in a relatively short period,” Mr Harrison said.

Can Trump Send in the Military to
Fight Big City Crime?
Trump floats "regular military" tackling crime with crackdowns in
Chicago, NY
President Trump on Friday said Chicago and New York City will be his
next targets to decrease crime rates following Washington, D.C. He
threatened using the "regular military," which would mark an even
graver escalation from federal takeovers of police and deploying the
National Guard.
Trump said Chicago will be next, followed by New York, but he did not
lay out a timeframe. Trump said he has not spoken to Chicago Mayor
Brandon Johnson and slammed him as "grossly incompetent." Trump also
reiterated threats to declare a national emergency in Washington, D.C.
The Posse Comitatus Act prohibits the use of the armed forces to
execute laws except in cases expressly authorized by the
Constitution or a congressional act. It was enacted in 1878 to prevent
U.S. Marshals from calling on the Army for assistance in enforcing
federal law.
The act is not a complete barrier if "the President determines that
the use of the Armed Forces is required to fulfill the President's
obligations under the Constitution to respond promptly in time of war,
insurrection, or other serious emergency."
Trump earlier this month previewed the other Democratic-led cities where
he wanted to intervene. He singled out Oakland, California; Chicago;
Baltimore; and New York City. Crime rates have dropped in recent
years in all four.

Retail's Hottest New Role? Chief AI
Officers (CAIOs)
Your Most Important Retail Hire Might Be Obsolete In Five Years
Factories once had “chief electricity officers.” The title sounds
quaint today, but when manufacturing shifted from steam power to
electricity in the early 20th century, companies needed leaders who
could redesign workflows and operations for a new power source. Only
once electricity became embedded everywhere did the role fade.
Retail is now at the same kind of turning point. Artificial
intelligence is not a feature or a tactic—it is a transformative
capability that will redefine merchandising, supply chains and most
importantly how customers discovery, choose, and buy products. And just
as brands once relied on Chief Digital Officers to steer them into the
e-commerce era, today they need Chief AI Officers (CAIOs) to cut
through inertia and embed AI where it matters.
Why a Chief AI Officer Matters
Every disruptive technology arrives with the same paradox: incumbent
organizations struggle to invest in tomorrow while serving today’s P&Ls.
Clayton Christensen called this the innovator’s dilemma. Typical retail
organizaitons are filled with status-quo anti-bodies that immedately see
new ideas as a threat and attack it. Early in the digital shift,
companies broke the institutional inertia by creating Chief Digital
Officers. AI now requires a similar solution.
Designing the Role for Success
Retailers considering the hire should be intentional. The most
effective CAIOs report to the CEO, giving them the authority to cut
across merchandising, stores, supply chain, and marketing. Others
may blend the role with a CIO or Chief Data Officer when data
infrastructure is the gating factor, but they should always have the
clear sponsorship of the CEO, and the CEO must see themselves as an AI
change agent. One famous retail CEO has taken to starting every meeting
by asking “how did you use AI to prepare for this meeting?”
The Endgame
History suggests the CAIO role will be transitional. Just as we no
longer appoint chief electricity officers and many companies no longer
need CDOs, AI fluency will eventually become ambient across every
function. But that’s not a reason to delay.

Kroger Layoffs
Kroger laying off less than 1,000 corporate employees
The Kroger Co. is reducing administrative staff across the U.S.
As part of structural changes to its administrative teams, the grocery
conglomerate is making what CEO Ron Sargent called a "meaningful
number of associate reductions" in a corporate memo Kroger forwarded
to Chain Store Age.
"In the past few months, we have all looked for ways to simplify the
organization, shift resources closer to our customers, and focus
on work that creates the most value," Sargent said in the memo. "Through
this work, we have updated many of our priorities and stopped projects
that were not directly helping us to run great stores."
Calling the role reductions part of an effort to “keep the positive
momentum” going, Sargent said Kroger will grow and reinvest savings
in areas that drive its strategy and benefit customers directly.

The Economic Rollercoaster Continues
Consumer confidence dips on anxiety about jobs, income
The average 12-month expectation for inflation jumped to 6.2% this
month from 5.7% in July, the Conference Board found in a consumer
survey.
Confidence among consumers fell this month as worries about slowing
income gains and the cooling job market clouded their current and
future outlook on the economy, the Conference Board said Tuesday.
A gauge of consumer sentiment dipped 1.3 points to 97.4, and a
measure of expectations for the coming six months declined, the
Conference Board said. The proportion of consumers who say jobs are hard
to get rose to the highest level since 2021, and the share who expect
their incomes to decrease rose to 12.6% from 11.8% in July.
“Consumers’ appraisal of current job availability declined for the
eighth consecutive month,” Stephanie Guichard, senior economist for
global indicators at the Conference Board, said in a statement.
“Pessimism about future job availability inched up, and optimism about
future income growth faded slightly.”

Retail Data & Dollars
When Cybersecurity Fails, It’s Not
Just Data — It’s Dollars Walking Out the Door
By
the D&D Daily staff
When most people hear “retail cybersecurity,” they think of customer
data: credit card numbers, email addresses, loyalty program logins.
That’s a critical piece of the puzzle — but it’s not the whole story.
Increasingly, retailers are learning that a cyber breach isn’t just
an IT problem. It’s a loss prevention problem.
Here’s why: Every minute a ransomware attack shuts down registers,
self-checkout, or supply chain systems, merchandise sits unprotected and
doors can’t close. That creates prime opportunities for theft — both
physical and digital. We’ve seen cases where organized retail crime
(ORC) groups actively monitor cyber incidents. If a chain suffers a
system outage, ORC crews will flood targeted stores, knowing security
and operations are in chaos.
Cybersecurity breakdowns are also becoming gateways for shrink. A
compromised employee portal can allow fraudulent returns, stolen
discount codes, or fake payroll entries. And in today’s omnichannel
environment, where e-commerce and brick-and-mortar are tightly linked, a
single weak password can open doors to theft across multiple platforms.
The message: Cybersecurity should be in the same conversation as
physical security, loss prevention, and asset protection. Retailers
who silo IT away from LP are leaving gaps that criminals are already
exploiting. Forward-thinking companies are starting to form hybrid
task forces, where cybersecurity teams share intel with ORC
investigators and vice versa. A stolen database entry and a stolen
pallet may look like different crimes — but in today’s retail world,
they’re often two sides of the same coin.
If retailers want to truly cut down on losses, cybersecurity can’t
just be about keeping hackers out. It has to be about keeping the
whole operation secure — registers, warehouses, and everything in
between.
73% of Organizations Have Integrated
AI into Cybersecurity
Safety-critical industries wary about using AI for cybersecurity
Finance, tech and professional services are among the sectors with
the widest adoption of AI-based security tools, according to a new
report.
Nearly three-quarters (73%) of organizations have already integrated
AI into their cybersecurity programs, but industries with critical
physical safety concerns are among the least likely to have deployed it,
according to a survey that the security firm Arctic Wolf released on
Wednesday.
The financial services industry led the way in implementing AI for
security, with 82% of respondents in that sector saying they had done
so, followed by IT and telecommunications (77%), manufacturing (77%) and
professional services (75%).
Energy companies have fewer AI deployments, with 59% of respondents
saying they had incorporated AI into their cybersecurity programs, just
behind government and military (60%) and transportation (64%).
Despite the growing popularity of AI-powered cyber defense solutions,
industries with major physical safety concerns such as energy and
transportation are hesitant to adopt the technology as widely as their
counterparts in other sectors. “Disruptions can result in devastating
impacts and a potential risk to human lives,” Arctic Wolf researchers
wrote. “Logically then, these organizations prefer to learn from the
experiences of others before trialing new technologies.”
There are geographic disparities, too. U.S. organizations were the most
likely to say they had implemented AI for cyber defense (82%), while
Nordic countries were the least likely (59%).
AI has demonstrated some potential to automate cybersecurity
processes, and companies are eager to test those capabilities.
Roughly three-quarters (73%) of respondents said they planned to use AI
in their security operations centers, while 72% said they aimed to use
it for threat prediction and 70% said they planned to use it to improve
threat detection.

700+ Organized Impacted by Hackers
Hackers steal data from Salesforce instances in widespread campaign
Google researchers say the hackers abused a third-party tool in an
attack spree designed to harvest credentials.
Hackers stole user credentials from Salesforce customers in a
widespread campaign earlier this month, according to researchers at
Google Threat Intelligence Group, who warned that the thefts could lead
to follow-up attacks.
A threat actor that Google tracks as UNC6395 targeted Salesforce
instances using compromised OAuth tokens that were associated with the
customer engagement vendor Salesloft’s Drift AI chat agent.
Researchers believe the hackers’ primary goal was to harvest
credentials, as they stole large amounts of data from numerous
Salesforce instances.
Google’s Threat Intelligence Group “is aware of over 700 potentially
impacted organizations,” Austin Larsen, a principal threat analyst
at the company, told Cybersecurity Dive in a statement. “The threat
actor used a Python tool to automate the data theft process for each
organization that was targeted.”

Delivery Remains Key Priority for
Retailers
Home Depot focuses on faster deliveries to boost satisfaction
Dedicated associates and machine learning-driven efficiency
improvements helped the retailer achieve its fastest ever delivery
speeds during the second quarter, executives said.
Home Depot is investing in faster order fulfillment to bolster its
customer experience, executives said on a Q2 2025 earnings call
Tuesday.
The home improvement retailer sees a double-digit increase in
spending from customers who utilize faster delivery options,
according to Ann-Marie Campbell, senior executive vice president of U.S.
stores and operations. These customers shop more frequently in-store as
well as online.
“Our faster delivery speeds are resonating with customers and
driving greater engagement and sales,” Executive Vice President of
Merchandising Billy Bastek said during the call. “We know that as we
remove friction from the experience, we see incremental customer
engagement.”
Associates and technology are working together to improve Home Depot’s
last-mile performance.
The retailer achieved the fastest delivery speed across the greatest
number of products in its history during the quarter, according to
Campbell.
Home Depot is using machine learning to determine whether orders
should be delivered from a store or fulfillment center, improving
efficiency. It also added more dedicated order fulfillment
associates to its stores and equipped them with an app that helps
prioritize their work.

St Louis, MO: Jury convicts St. Louis man of $200K Kohl’s Cash merchandise scam
A federal jury in St. Louis on Tuesday convicted a local man of orchestrating a
scheme that defrauded Kohl’s out of more than $200,000 in merchandise. Jurors
found 35-year-old Marshall Lampkin guilty on all five counts of mail fraud after
less than seven minutes of deliberation. The verdict followed evidence presented
in U.S. District Court showing that Lampkin repeatedly exploited the retailer’s
“Kohl’s Cash” rewards system in 2021 and 2022. According to testimony, Lampkin
would first use Kohl’s Cash to buy items at a store, often exceeding $1,000.
Before the purchase was registered in Kohl’s system, he used the same Kohl’s
Cash online to order additional merchandise. He then returned the original
in-store purchases for a refund in Kohl’s Cash, allowing him to cycle the scam
repeatedly. The trial revealed Lampkin executed the scheme more than 100 times
at 40 stores across 13 states. Items ordered online included flooring,
furniture, small appliances, and other goods. Shipments were sent to storage
units in St. Louis and to a relative’s home in Illinois. Lampkin later sold or
attempted to sell the merchandise through Facebook listings, prosecutors said.
Investigators eventually uncovered hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth of
Kohl’s merchandise inside Lampkin’s storage units.

Miami, FL: 2 arrested in Miami-Dade, accused of selling counterfeit brand name
soccer apparel at various stores
The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office has arrested a couple who they said have been
selling counterfeit merchandise from various brands, such as Adidas, Nike and
Puma. According to an arrest report for Silvia Marila Urgilez-Guartan, 39, of
Miami, a deputy first spotted a business, located at 1834 NW 20th St., on June
30 with mannequins on display in front of the business, displaying soccer
apparel in front of the store. The deputy questioned the legitimacy of the
products as there was no signage for the business and the only sign visible was
an illuminated “open sign” on the front window of the store. Authorities said
the deputy looked up the business address and saw that a company named Silvia
Soccer Liga Sport LLC. was operating out of that location. “Further research
revealed that the business was selling brand name apparel for one fourth or less
of the normal retail value,” the arrest report stated. According to the report,
most of the apparel being sold was branded as Adidas. A representative from the
company was requested to investigate the legitimacy of the merchandise and
confirmed that the items were unlicensed and counterfeit, the report stated.
Detectives said the total retail value for the items seized during their
investigation was $534,295, and included various items such as soccer sets, caps
and baby onesies.

Security: Hospitality with a Backbone?
Your security program should feel like
hospitality—with a backbone. Great AP doesn't alienate customers—it
