The world has changed. Every single crime we encounter is facilitated or committed through the internet or use of digital media. Criminals harness social networks to create customer bases, and traffic in stolen or fraudulently obtained goods. Cloned credit cards and identity theft victimizes countless citizens. Organized shoplifting rings launder money overseas to rogue countries and terrorist groups. Gangs finance their crimes through benefit fraud. Our legitimate businesses are threatened by violence and loss on a daily basis, while other businesses act as fences for crimes that affect public safety in multiple ways. Learn how to combat organized crime and organized retail crime from federal, state and local law enforcement officials, as well as dynamic leaders across the retail and financial services spectrum. There will be over twenty speakers on three different tracks. The conference includes advanced training on numerous topics from subject matter experts across the country.
