in Credit cards
Another crook nicked but at some cost.
"more than 1,000 credit and debit cards were cloned at a Northampton petrol station, netting international fraudsters at least £300,000"
Suntharam Thevaratnam, 33, turned off CCTV cameras and allowed a bug to be placed inside the Chip and PIN machine at the Shell garage on the A45 near Wootton

Or any other retailer????
Unfortunatly it takes so many transactions to happen before a pattern will emerge to identify the culprit.
But petrol station & restraunts are often hit due to the high footfall and big customer base.These are my thoughts and no one else's, so like any public forum advice - check it out before entering into contracts or spending your hard earned cash!
I don't know everything, however I do try to point people in the right direction but at the end of the day you can only ever help yourself!0 -
I love the way his defence said:
"He's certainly not the brightest man and that may be why he was persuaded."
