BECU Cracks Card Skimming at Wendy’s
Bank Info Security reports a worker at a local Wendy’s restaurant was arrested yesterday, along with two alleged accomplices, and charged with identity theft after she allegedly used a “skimmer” to steal credit card information from as many as 135 customers. The investigation was initiated by the King County Sheriff’s office after evidence was brought to it by a fraud investigator at BECU, who had linked violations to several member accounts to the Tukwila Wendy’s restaurant.
