ATM Skimming Ring Busted

Seven people have been arrested in an ATM skimming scheme that compromised at least 1,500 credit and debit cards. Authorities say they are working with the Canada Border Services Agency, the U.S. Secret Service and other agencies to locate 13 more suspects. Authorities believe the ring is connected with other international groups for similar schemes. Identity theft expert: “When these are small, this is a very small, first dent in a much larger set of crimes,” he says. Compromised card data linked to the attacks has been used in Bulgaria, South Africa, Chile, Chile and Mexico.”]
