The loss prevention industry stands at a crossroads. The path you
choose will define what LP looks like for your company in the years
ahead.
After decades of incremental evolution (from tape-based CCTV to
digital video, from manual audits to exception-based reporting), LP
stands on the brink of its most significant upheaval yet: the shift
from reactive operations to AI-powered intelligence.
The path forward is full of questions and uncertainty. What does "AI
in LP" actually mean? How do organizations progress from alert
fatigue to autonomous workflows? What prevents advancement?
Don’t worry. We’ve built a roadmap.
On March
31st at 11:00 AM EST
we’ll share The Loss Prevention Maturity Model—a strategic framework
that maps four stages of LP evolution: from reactive, device-based
operations to data-driven analytics, AI-powered intelligence, and
ultimately autonomous workflows.

The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
Store Layouts & ORC
Organized Retail Crime Groups Exploit Store Layout Intelligence to
Maximize Thefts
 By
the D&D Daily Staff
Organized retail crime (ORC) groups are increasingly using detailed
knowledge of store layouts and operations to carry out more efficient
and targeted thefts, according to loss prevention professionals.
Rather than acting opportunistically, some groups are conducting
pre-visit reconnaissance to map store interiors, identify high-value
product locations and track security measures. In certain cases,
individuals enter stores posing as customers to observe camera
placement, employee routines and peak staffing gaps before returning
later to execute thefts.
Retailers report that this type of planning allows ORC groups to
reduce time on site and avoid detection. Teams may split roles, with
one or more individuals acting as distractions while others move
directly to specific merchandise categories such as health and beauty,
electronics or designer apparel.
In addition, some groups are leveraging publicly available
information — including online store maps, social media posts and even
customer photos — to better understand store layouts before entering.
This use of open-source intelligence allows bad actors to plan thefts
remotely and refine their approach across multiple locations within the
same retail chain.
Loss prevention teams note that this trend presents new challenges,
as traditional deterrents may be less effective against highly
coordinated activity. Instead, retailers are increasingly focusing
on dynamic countermeasures, including adjusting product placement,
rotating high-risk inventory locations and enhancing real-time
monitoring of in-store behavior.
The evolution of ORC tactics reflects a broader shift toward more
organized and data-driven approaches. As these groups continue to
adapt, retailers are working to stay ahead by combining technology,
employee awareness and operational flexibility to mitigate risk.
Organized Theft Rings Swiping Packages
from Porches
‘Porch Piracy’ Is Just One Aspect of Rampant Retail Theft and Fraud
An estimated 250,000 packages, valued at around $15 billion, are
stolen nationwide each day. And porch pirates are becoming
increasingly sophisticated in their methods, according to Yael Hemo, a
researcher with Riskified, creator of a fraud-prevention platform driven
by artificial intelligence.
Thieves today are often part of extensive fraud rings that employ
such tactics are Wi-Fi jammers to knock out cameras and bypass
home-security systems, Hemo says. They actively trade techniques and
obtain inside information on potential victims over the dark web.
Those victims aren’t just individual consumers. The big money comes from
duping merchants through the widescale abuse of refund policies, Hemo
says.
Exploiting the high public profile of porch piracy, the scam often
takes the form of a shopper falsely claiming that a package was either
stolen or never arrived, and demanding a full refund. Research by
Riskified reveals that refund abuse in 2024 amounted to between 1% and
2% of total order value. As many as one in four return claims is
fraudulent, Hemo says.
Total losses from all forms of retail return fraud are in excess of
$100 billion a year, Hemo notes. Other techniques include wardrobing
(purchasing and wearing an outfit once, then returning it for a refund),
returning stolen merchandise, submitting fake or altered receipts, and
using fraudulently obtained gift cards to receive cash or store credit
on returned items.
Porch piracy in particular “is always looking to imitate legitimate
phenomena,” says Hemo. That saddles merchants with the burden of
distinguishing between scammers and honest customers. Failing to
stop the former can lead to huge losses and higher prices, but
erroneously charging the latter with fraud can seriously undermine brand
loyalty.
Fraudsters have become so sophisticated that they’re now offering
their services to others on the dark web — even on legitimate platforms
such as Telegram. “You can reach out to a professional, and in
return for a fee, they can do it for you,” Hemo says.

The Political Debate Over Property
Crime
Red Cities, Blue Cities and (Property) Crime: A Sequel
Like urban violent crime, urban
property crime is often a political football. Republicans claim that
crime in Democrat-run cities is proof that Democrats are incapable of
maintaining public order. Do they have a point?
When I wrote about the Black-dominated Democrat-run cities two years ago
(Atlanta, Memphis, Detroit, Cleveland, Baton Rouge, Baltimore) I
mentioned that homicide rates had no clear pattern during the early
2020s. Car theft rates also varied widely, from a slight decline in
Baton Rouge to a over-100-percent increase in Memphis. Although car
thefts in Detroit rose by only 19 percent, car theft in the other three
cities rose by 50-60 percent. To put it another way, the median car
theft increase was just over 90 percent among the progressive cities and
just over 50 percent among the most Black cities. So, on balance, it
seems like the most Black-dominated cities outperformed more progressive
cities — but were in turn outperformed by Republican-run cities.
What about the not-so-progressive cities with Democratic mayors? Were
they more like the Republican-run cities (where car theft has generally
gone down to 2019 levels or lower) or like the more left-leaning
Democratic cities?
This group of (mostly) sprawling, car-oriented cities yielded mixed
results. At the one extreme, car thefts doubled or more in six cities
(El Paso, Charlotte, Raleigh, Durham, Kansas City, and Lincoln) and
increased by 98 percent in Long Beach. At the other extreme, car theft
rates went down in Sacramento and St. Petersburg, and increased by 10
percent or less in Phoenix, Tampa, Albuquerque, and San Jose. The median
cities (that is, ranking 9th and 10th worst) were Greensboro (75 percent
increase) and Denver (68 percent). So the median car theft increase
in centrist Democratic cities was actually pretty close to that of other
categories of Democrat-run cities — a result I would not have expected
from looking at murder rates, which increased quite modestly in this
group of cities during the early 2020s.

Seasonal Store Operations Shift
How Retailers Prepare for Warmer Weather Operations
By
the D&D Daily Staff
As temperatures rise, retailers across the country begin
transitioning store operations to align with seasonal changes in
customer behavior, staffing needs, and in-store conditions. While
much of the focus is placed on merchandising and promotional strategies,
operational adjustments play a critical role in maintaining efficiency,
safety, and customer experience during the warmer months.
Foot traffic patterns often shift in spring and summer, with longer
daylight hours and school breaks contributing to increased store visits,
particularly in the late afternoon and evening. Retailers may adjust
staffing schedules to align with these peaks, ensuring adequate floor
coverage and customer service during higher-traffic periods.
Store environments also require seasonal recalibration. HVAC
systems are typically inspected and optimized to handle increased
cooling demands, helping maintain a comfortable shopping environment
while managing energy costs. Entryways and flooring may need more
frequent cleaning as rain, pollen, and outdoor debris become more
common, particularly in regions with variable spring weather.
From a merchandising standpoint, retailers reposition floor layouts
to highlight seasonal inventory such as outdoor goods, apparel, and
travel-related products. This often involves reconfiguring displays to
improve flow and visibility, while ensuring compliance with safety
standards and accessibility guidelines.
Employee considerations are another key factor. Dress codes may
be adjusted to allow for lighter, breathable uniforms, particularly in
non-climate-controlled environments like garden centers or outdoor
retail spaces. Hydration and break policies may also be reinforced as
temperatures increase, supporting employee well-being and productivity.
Finally, retailers often review emergency preparedness protocols
for seasonal risks such as severe weather, including thunderstorms and
heatwaves. This can involve updating communication procedures, ensuring
backup power readiness, and reinforcing safety training for staff.
While these adjustments may vary by region and retail segment, the
transition into warmer weather represents a consistent operational shift.
Proactive planning in these areas helps retailers maintain smooth
operations and deliver a consistent customer experience throughout the
season.
'Cooperative Workplace Safety
Programs'
OSHA doubles down on prevention with OSHA Cares rollout
The U.S. Department of Labor is expanding its push toward cooperative
workplace safety programs, rolling out an agencywide initiative days
after launching a structured employer recognition program.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration last week introduced
its OSHA Cares initiative, aimed at strengthening customer service
and broadening compliance assistance for employers. It says the
effort focuses on helping businesses meet federal safety requirements
while building more effective safety and health programs, with an
emphasis on prevention and collaboration.
Under OSHA Cares, the agency is encouraging employers — particularly
small and midsize businesses — to seek guidance before problems
escalate, according to a statement. The initiative includes expanded
access to compliance assistance specialists, improved training and
educational materials, and more consistent, real-time support during
inspections and enforcement activities.
The rollout builds on OSHA’s March 16 launch of its Safety Champions
Program, a voluntary, tiered initiative designed to help employers
develop and improve safety and health programs over time.

Gas Prices & Retail
Are Gas Price Spikes a Blow to Retail Spending?
The surge in gas prices since the start of the Iran war is expected
to deliver more of a psychological than material impact to consumers.
Harriet Torry, economics correspondent for the Western U.S. for the Wall
Street Journal, estimated in a podcast that Americans spend only about
3% of their income on energy services like electricity and natural gas —
with bigger expenditures including housing, 33%, and food, 14%. However,
continually noticing higher gas prices takes its toll on consumer
sentiment.
“This is actually quite a small part of American’s day-to-day spending,
but because it’s such a visible part — people are just very aware of gas
prices because you drive around all day and you see them everywhere you
go,” said Torry. “So when they go up, you think, ‘Oh yeah, okay. Why is
that happening?’ And swings in gas prices do have an impact on the
way that people feel about their ability to continue spending.”
“Gas prices carry outsize psychological weight,” eMarketer stated
in a recent analysis, “Prominently displayed and paid frequently,
increased pump prices keep inflation concerns front and center,
squeezing household budgets and dampening consumer sentiment. Over the
past half-century, rising gas prices have typically lifted inflation
expectations.”

Interface Systems Strengthens Alarm Monitoring Against
Cellular Jamming and Break-Ins
Integration of TamperShield™ alarm monitoring with advanced
JamAlert™ technology enables Interface to stop break-ins before they happen
 St.
Louis, MO — Interface Systems,
a leading managed service provider delivering remote video monitoring,
commercial security systems, business intelligence, and network services for
multi-location enterprises, today announced the integration of JamAlert™ with
its
TamperShield™ alarm monitoring service. JamAlert™ is an advanced cellular
jammer detection device from Digital Monitoring Products (DMP) designed to
identify criminal cellular interference attempts to disable connected alarm
devices before a break-in occurs.
Criminals are increasingly using portable cellular jammers to block alarm
communications before attempting a break-in to high-value retail environments
such as jewelry stores, as well as financial institutions, and museums. JamAlert
monitors cellular frequencies used by alarm systems and detects abnormal signal
interference. When jamming activity is identified, the device immediately
triggers an alarm, providing early warning of a potential security event.
When paired with TamperShield, which monitors panel “heartbeat” communications
at the Interface’s Interactive Security Operations Center (ISOC), the solution
delivers layered protection that includes:
-
Early detection of jamming attempts at the site level
-
Continuous monitoring of panel connectivity at the ISOC
-
Live video verification to assess suspicious activity
-
Faster escalation, including staff notification, law
enforcement dispatch and voice-down deterrence when a credible threat is
confirmed
"TamperShield with JamAlert provides early visibility into
sophisticated break-in attempts," said Steve Womer, SVP of Product at Interface
Systems. "Instead of discovering interference after a break-in, we can identify
a jamming attempt as it begins, verify activity through video monitoring, and
respond quickly. This proactive approach helps deter crime and reduce loss."
JamAlert is compatible with both DMP and Honeywell intrusion systems. This
allows businesses to enhance protection without replacing existing
infrastructure.

States Ranked By Cybercrime Losses
Cybercrime Losses Vary Widely Across States, New Analysis Shows
By
the D&D Daily Staff
A recent analysis from
Whitaker
Brothers highlights how cybercrime impact can vary significantly
across U.S. states when measured on a per capita basis, rather than
by total losses alone.
The report ranks states based on average cybercrime loss per person,
offering a clearer view of how financial harm is distributed among
residents. Using this methodology, smaller states often rank higher in
relative impact despite reporting lower total losses.
Among the states analyzed, Alaska and Delaware show some of the
highest per-person losses, each at approximately $36 per resident.
Iowa and Ohio fall in the mid-range, with per capita losses of $23 and
$23 respectively, while states such as West Virginia and Indiana report
lower per-person impacts at $14 and $18.
Total losses and complaint volumes still vary widely. For
example, some states report more than $100 million in losses and tens of
thousands of complaints, while others report significantly lower totals.
However, the per capita approach reveals that higher population states
do not necessarily experience greater impact on an individual level.
The findings align with broader industry data showing that cybercrime
remains widespread across regions, with common schemes including
phishing, business email compromise and online fraud. These
incidents continue to generate both high-frequency complaints and
substantial financial losses.
By focusing on average loss per person, the analysis underscores how
cybercrime affects residents differently depending on geography,
population size and reporting patterns. The results highlight the
importance of continued investment in cybersecurity awareness, employee
training and preventative technologies across all regions.
Anti-Fraud AI
How is AI transforming financial crime compliance now?
2026 is shaping up to be the year
when AI matures from experimental technology to scalable Financial Crime
Compliance Tools.
Forward thinkers in Financial Crime Compliance (FCC) spent 2025
investing in data foundations and testing agentic AI improvements to
Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering (AML), and Fraud
Prevention processes.
Now, leading institutions are deploying AI across the FCC lifecycle
to orchestrate data extraction, accelerate KYC refreshes, support
investigations, and strengthen anti-fraud decisioning.
This transformation is urgent because institutions, regulators, and
law enforcement are facing unprecedented levels of illicit transactions
and AI-powered financial fraud. An estimated $800 billion to $2
trillion is laundered worldwide each year. These transactions support
organized crime and deprive economies of resources they need for growth
and stability. They also put institutions at risk for severe financial
penalties if they fail to detect risky customer behavior.
Firms that used 2025 to build their agentic AI capabilities by focusing
on the unglamorous foundation work are in the best position to manage
increasing financial crime risk accurately, cost-effectively and in
real-time.
Emerging high-velocity risks demand better
tools
Three major trends came together in 2025 to make financial crime
more challenging to detect and fight.
First, financial digitization, including decentralized finance
platforms and cryptocurrency, “dramatically expanded both the reach and
speed of illicit financial flows,” according to a 2025 International
Institute of Certified Forensic Investigation Professionals report.
Second, so much identity data has been compromised through years of
breaches and leaks that it “threatens to overwhelm fraud detection
systems,” according to a 2025 TransUnion report. Criminals use that data
to steal consumer identities outright and to synthesize new consumer
identities that can pass basic account creation checks.
Third, criminals also tapped into the power of AI to automate
processes like account takeovers and fraudulent account creation to
support financial crime at scale.

Ransomware Broker Sentences to 81
Months
Russian initial access broker helped ransomware gangs extort millions,
sentenced to 81 months
A Russian citizen, Aleksei Volkov, was sentenced to 81 months in prison
for helping ransomware groups carry out attacks causing over $9
million in actual losses and over $24 million in intended losses,
after being arrested in Italy and extradited to the United States where
he pleaded guilty.
According to prosecutors, Volkov was an initial access broker who
found vulnerabilities in computer networks, gained unauthorized access,
and sold that access to other cybercriminals.
Volkov’s co-conspirators used the access he provided to deploy malware
that encrypted victims’ data and disrupted their operations. They then
demanded cryptocurrency payments, sometimes in the tens of millions
of dollars, in exchange for restoring access and not releasing
stolen data on leak sites.

Shootings & Deaths
Las Vegas, NV: Update: Estate of 21-year-old killed in AutoZone shooting sues
retailer for wrongful death
The estate of a 21-year-old man killed in an Autozone shooting is suing the
retailer for wrongful death and negligence. According to police, David Carcamo
went to the store near Charleston and Maryland Parkway on May 23, 2025 when he
noticed a distressed man, identified as Kyle Capucci. Police say Carcamo, who
was openly carrying a firearm, was approached by Capucci, who attempted to grab
the gun, leading to a struggle and Carcamo's subsequent shooting. Carcamo died
at the scene. According to a complaint filed in Clark County District Court,
Carcamo's estate argues that the company was negligent in maintaining a safe
environment for customers. The complaint alleges that the store was located in a
high-crime area and that AutoZone was aware of ongoing safety risks, including
prior incidents involving criminal activity and individuals under the influence
of drugs. Despite this, the company allegedly failed to hire security personnel
or properly train employees to handle dangerous situations.
