I know someone in CH who had their card emptied in March and benefits were used out of state. This must be a very big fraud operation.

Many people in CH who had their benefits stolen, had their card emptied in stores in PA. Yes, there had to be multiple people involved in this scheme.

Do any of the local store owners seem to be taking precautions? IS there anything they can do?

They can check their devices for skimming attachments.
As far as I know, someone went around to the local stores in CH to check for skimming devices, and by that point, they had been removed. But all the info obtained previously, has still been collected. (And we do not know if they were replaced with new devices since.)

My card was emptied this week Wednesday. I used it for an order in the morning and by noon it was empty.
