Pull-A-Part was facing a growing problem with fraudulent returns and fake store credit across its 40 locations. With a high volume of transactions and limited visibility into what was actually happening in-store, it became increasingly difficult to spot suspicious activity. Employees and customers were exploiting these gaps—especially during after-hours—resulting in thousands of dollars being lost daily through manipulated refunds and unauthorized payouts.
