I think it was grossly underestimated but i can t prove it he said. I heard undocumented stories of in credible theft you d place your order on the Street almost on a contract basis. It was enormously suggestive of theft on a grand  theft losses Baridon said his study team could not get better estimates of theft losses because of poor record keeping.
