Albuquerque, NM Organized Crime Unit arrest a restaurant employee for skimming
credit cards; $15,000 in a month It was a scheme Albuquerque Police
Sgt. Mizel Garcia called more insidious than usual. An Albuquerque
burger-restaurant waiter allegedly stole customers’ information by running their
cards through a separate skimming device while he was processing their payments.
The device captured the data from the cards’ magnetic stripes, and police say he
turned it over to accomplices who used it to create counterfeit cards. They then
took their fraudulent plastic to a local grocery store, where other cronies
would accept them as payment for real gift cards and money orders. By the time
authorities made arrests in the case, the ring had been operating for about a
month and caused about $15,000 worth of credit- and debit-card fraud, Garcia
said. (Source
