Police are warning about a pair of men (in surveillance photos) who are stealing credit and debit card information by using "skimming" devices on gas pumps.
State Police say two men are placing the skimming devices over the credit card slots on gas pumps. They then use them to steal debit card information from customers when they swipe their cards.
State Police the two men have ripped off dozens of people and for tens of thousands of dollars.
The men used the devices as far back as April on gas pumps at Wawas in Delaware, Chester, Montgomery and Bucks Counties, and also in New Castle, Delaware.
Police urge everyone to keep an eye on their bank statements, and to report any suspicious withdrawals to their banks and to police.
