Toronto Businesses Warned of POS Scam Thefts

In Toronto's east end, multiple businesses have reported thousands of dollars in thefts due to "point of sale" (POS) scams. Thieves access POS terminals by guessing the default password or swapping terminals. The Beach BIA warns business owners to change default settings and implement full security measures. These thefts can be devastating for independent business owners, who often lack the security of larger corporate chains.
