According to Assistant U.S. Attorney Ilana H. Eisenstein, Grigoryan and Harutyunyan placed a skimmer device inside a keypad at Rite Aid drugstores in Wayne, Pa., and on Marsh Road in Brandywine Hundred, at the checkout counter, allowing it to read and store account numbers and security passwords of anyone who used the keypad.
