80 reports of fraud in Big Bear, police suspect skimming device

Posted on March 26, 2017 by Dissent

I know skimmers are still a thing, even if I don’t cover most of those reports on this blog. But here’s a good reminder of why you should check your bank statements regularly. ABC reports:

Big Bear tourists and residents have fallen victims over the past couple of days to several counts of credit card fraud, according to officials.

[…]

Police have taken at least 70 reports, including one victim who had a pending fraudulent charge for $8,900.

Detectives have thus far failed to find a skimmer.
