Venezuelan Busted At Tocumen With 16 Cloned Credit Cards
Specialized units of the National Police, stationed at the Tocumen International Airport, apprehended a 38 year old foreigner, who was allegedly involved in several cases of cloning of debit and credit cards. The suspect was arrested as he tried to board a commercial flight bound for Caracas, Venezuela, with a total of 16 supposedly cloned credit cards. He was also carrying a device normally used to copy the magnetic strips on ATM cards in order to get the bank card information. It is important to point out there are security and surveillance videos of the foreigner, who has been identified as a Venezuelan, as the perpetrator of the theft of depositors' money from the ATM machines of several banks. After his arrest he was turned over to the competent legal authorities (prosecutors).
