Credit Card Fraud in North Lakeland
Jan 21, 2021
Media Contact : Brian Bruchey, PIO

man went to work out at the Planet Fitness on Thursday, January 21st at around 4:00 PM. While he was there, he began getting text alerts regarding potential fraud activity on his credit card. When he went to his locker, he discovered the lock had been cut and his property had been stolen.
The fraudulent charges on the victim's credit card occurred nearby at Dillard's and Best Buy, and then an attempt at Sam's Club.
The suspect can be seen here. One thing that stands out about the man is his rather large ring.
