Credit Card Frauds on the Rise, Are Banks up to date on Technology? According to Federal Trade Commission, Bank fraud cases grew 39% in 2021 compared to the previous year, while “other” identity theft increased by 7%. Global Credit card and debit card fraud resulted in losses of $28.58 billion in 2020. As a result, financial institutions and merchants assume responsibility for most of the money lost due to fraud. For example, card issuers bore a 88% share of fraudulent losses in 2020, and merchants and ATM acquirers assumed the other 12% of the liability, according to the Nilson Report, December 2021.

Gas Stoves After the uproar over the proposal by the Consumer Products safety Commission (CPCS) to ban the use of gas stoves, the Biden administration fell all over itself walking back that wildly unpopular proposal by the CPSC. https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/11/politics/biden-gas-stoves/index.html Unfazed by the public backlash and Biden’s backpedaling, NY State Governor Kathy Hochul stepped forward and in a “Hold my beer and watch this” moment, came out and said that NY State will move forward with legislation that would ban the installation of gas stoves in all new homes and apartment complexes effective 2025. https://cbs6albany.com/news/local/hochul-wants-gas-stove-ban-for-new-homes-in-2025-can-stay-in-existing-homes
