The attachment assembly includes a tack assembly (15) having an elongated tack body (17) connected to a tack head (16). A retaining member (8) is attachabl e to the tack head (16) and forms a loop to provide a variety of additional attachment positions for attachment to various articles to be protected and/ or identified. The tack head (16) includes at least one recessed area (18, 20) under the tack head on the side adjacent the tack body (17) to receive at least one end of the retaining member (8). When the tack body (17) is insert ed into a theft deterrent tag, the tack head (16) rests relatively flush agains t the tag body, capturing the retaining member end in the recessed area (18).< /SDOAB>
