Received an urgent email from a dry cleaner merchant who refused to get a chip terminal last year when we asked him to -- he just got hit with a $75 fraud charge due to NO CHIP so now he is begging for that free emv terminal!

It Is Possible for Merchants to Accelerate Chip Card Acceptance
By Xavier Giandominici
June 16, 2016
Despite some early success, it can’t be ignored that there are still many merchants that cannot accept EMV chip cards.
That's not because they haven’t started their migration, but because the payments applications developed by their VAR, ISO and ISV partners or themselves have not yet been certified.
Now, merchants are starting to see their chargebacks mount—chargebacks for card-present transactions increased 50% following the liability shift. While not all chargebacks are due to the chip card migration, it has become a significant point of motivation for merchants in trying to accelerate their chip card acceptance programs.
With this surge of organizations now trying to get through the testing and certification process, they have overwhelmed the industry's resources and created a certification backlog. But this isn’t the only reason for the backlog— we’re also seeing that when many merchants finally get to the front of the certification “rush hour” line their application fails to pass certification.
This not only frustrates the merchant and delays their plans of chip card acceptance, it also compounds the traffic jam and makes the backlog problem worse. When an organization fails the certification test, acquirers and other certifying entities need to spend more time with them to identify why they failed and assist them in resolving the problem. Eventually, the certification has to be resubmitted, further stressing the capacity.
The good news is, there is something merchants can do to not only make their trip through the certification backlog more successful, but make it successful the first time: call a DW Agent!

There’s the Beef: Wendy’s Breach Numbers About to Get Much Meatier
When news broke last month that the credit card breach at fast food chain Wendy’s impacted fewer than 300 out of the company’s 5,800 locations, the response from many readers was, “Where’s the Breach?”
Today, Wendy’s said thenumber of stores impacted by the breach is “significantly higher” and that the intrusion may not yet be contained.
On January 27, 2016, this publication was the first to report thatWendy’s was investigating a card breach. In mid-May, the company announced in its first quarter financial statement that the fraud impacted just five percent of stores.
But since that announcement last month, a number of sources in the fraud and banking community have complained to this author that there was no way the Wendy’s breach only affected five percent of stores — given the volume of fraudthat the banks have traced back to Wendy’s customers.
What’s more, some of those same sources said they were certain the breach was still ongoing well after Wendy’s made the five percent claim in May.
Today, Wendy’s acknowledged in a statement that the breach is now expected to be “considerably higher than the 300 restaurants already implicated.” Company spokesman Bob Bertini declined to be more specific about the number ofstores involved, citing an ongoing investigation. Bertini also declined to say whether the company is confident that thebreach has been contained.
“Wherever we are finding it we’ve taken action,” he said. “But we can’t rule out that there aren’t others.”
The company also emphasized that all of the breached stores were franchised — not company-run — entities. Here is the statement that Wendy’s provided to KrebsOnSecurity, in its entirety:
Based on the preliminary findings of the previously-disclosed investigation, the Company reported on May 11 that malware had been discovered on the point of sale (POS) system at fewer than 300 franchised North America Wendy’srestaurants. An additional 50 franchise restaurants were also suspected of experiencing, or had been found to have,other cybersecurity issues. As a result of these issues, the Company directed its investigator to continue to investigate.
Iand the number of franchise restaurants impacted by these cybersecurity attacks is
now expected to be considerably higher than the 300 restaurants already implicated. To date, there has been no
indication in the ongoing investigation that any Company-operated restaurants were impacted by this activity.
Many franchisees and operators throughout the retail and restaurant industries contract with third-party service
providers to maintain and support their POS systems. The Company believes this series of cybersecurity attacks
resulted from certain service providers’ remote access credentials being compromised, allowing access to the POS
system in certain franchise restaurants serviced by those providers.
The malware used by attackers is highly sophisticated in nature and extremely difficult to detect. Upon detecting the
new variant of malware in recent days, the Company has already disabled it in all franchise restaurants where it has
been discovered, and the Company continues to work aggressively with its experts and federal law enforcement to
continue its investigation.
Customers may call a toll-free number (888-846- 9467) or emailPaymentCardUpdate@wendys.com with specific
questions.
Wendy’s statement that the attackers got access by stealing credentials that allowed remote access to point-of-sale
terminals should hardly be surprising: The vast majority of the breaches involving restaurant and hospitality chains
over the past few years have been tied to hacked remote access accounts that POS service providers use to remotely
manage the devices.
Wednesday’s story about a point-of-sale botnet that has stolen at least 1.2 million credit cards from more than 100
Cici’s Pizza locations and other restaurants noted that Cici’s point-of-sale provider believes the attackers in this case
used social engineering and remote access tools to compromise and maintain control over hacked cash registers.
Once the attackers have their malware loaded onto the point-of-sale devices, they can remotely capture data from each
card swiped at that cash register. Thieves can then sell the data to crooks who specialize in encoding the stolen data
onto any card with a magnetic stripe, and using the cards to buy gift cards and high-priced goods from big-box stores
like Target and Best Buy.
Many retailers are now moving to install card readers that can handle transactions from more secure chip-based credit
and debit cards, which are far more expensive for thieves to clone.
Gavin Waugh, vice president and treasurer at The Wendy’s Company, declined to say whether Wendy’s has any
timetable for deploying chip-based readers across it’s fleet of stores — the vast majority of which are franchise
operations.
