\nLouisville Metro Police busted two men for stealing credit card data with a skimmer at a new gas station on the Outer Loop.<\/p>\n
Police said the men had a skimmer, more than a dozen fraudulent credit cards and cash with them during the arrest.<\/p>\n
An arrest report reveals the men, Alexuivus Toledo and Yordanis Lopez, set up a skimmer in at least one pump at the RaceTrac gas station at the Outer Loop on Air Commerce Drive.<\/p>\n
Police said the men stole more than $1,000 from their victims and had more than a dozen forged credit cards which were used to steal money from real credit and debit cards.<\/p>\n
Police said the stolen money was used to buy gas and other items. Authorities say there are ways to prevent this from happening to you.<\/p>\n
Make sure the pump\u2019s tape seal isn\u2019t broken and there are no obvious scratches or strange marks. Use a credit card to limit your liability and use tap to pay if you can, which doesn\u2019t rely on the magnetic information on the cards themselves.<\/p>\n
Skimming costs consumers at least $1 billion a year. Cases have only increased in Kentucky over the last five years.<\/p>\n
Both men are out of jail now, but are scheduled to be back in court in June.
