Cyber Monday and Grinch Bots

With Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2021 in the books, Karisse shares the first public statistics for e-commerce sales during this historically record-breaking weekend of holiday sales and the impact it had on retailer fraud teams.

Then, she shares news about a new bill announced in the US Senate to prevent "grinch bots". Although this bill has not yet been passed, it's important for e-commerce retailers, especially those with a limited supply of highly desirable items, to be aware of this bill and its potential impact. Karisse is left with more questions than answers around the enforcement of the bill and what technology could be recommended or required, but also understands the intention of this proposed law.
