Attention shoppers: Credit card skimmers found at Walmart checkout lines in Northeast
WCVB 5 Boston
BOSTON —
Law enforcement officials are warning shoppers to pay close attention to the payment terminal the next time they are in a checkout line.
Video from a Walmart in Erwin, New York, nearly 80 miles west of Binghamton, shows three people working together to attach a credit card skimmer to the payment terminal in a checkout line. The process took less than 30 seconds and the trio pulled it off in front of the cashier, who did not notice what had happened.
