Credit Card Fraud Cases Still Growing

Bend Police say the fraud cases seem to be slowing down a little; but the number of victims is still great: 437 people as of Friday afternoon. Lt. Ben Gregory with Bend Police talks about the record fraud case hitting the Bend area. They believe organized crime is behind the theft of credit and debit card numbers that are stolen and then made into physical cards and swiped thorough the country, even as far away as Jamaica and France.  “Police detectives are asking the FBI for their help and expertise. In the meantime, if you use plastic, experts advice you to monitor your bank and credit card accounts on a daily basis.”
