Jaimoe Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 This is currently going on and from what I can tell, NOT being investigated by the cops as of yet. Many people at my work, including CityTv news anchor Gord Martineau, are out a bundle of cash. I'm reading emails tonight and it's a bit of an epidemic. So, if you are going shopping on Queen Street West near the Chum building at Queen and John Streets, do not use your credit and/or debit cards. All fingers seem to be pointing at the Subway across the street from the Chum parking lot. St. Patrick's corner store is also in question too.

bokonon Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 How does said scam work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 It's a double swipe of your card when you aren't looking. Often it's a palm pilot with an optical card reader attached. They record your number and your pin and then withdraw what they can later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
