Credit card skimmer found in Hancock Co.

HANCOCK COUNTY, Ind. (WISH) – A manager found a credit card skimmer at the Shell/Circle K gas station on Mount Comfort Road Tuesday.

The secret service is working with the Hancock Co. Sheriff’s Department to get the credit card information off of the device and try to find out who was responsible for placing it in the pump.

The sheriff’s department thought there might be a skimmer in the county because of the jump in fraud reports last month. Investigators have not yet linked this skimmer to the fraud reports.

Police say managers will be checking each pump before every shift now.
