Briton Faces Fraud Charges Over International Debit Card Scam
The TimesOnline reports that a British man has appeared in an Australian court to face charges over a multi-million dollar scam which police allege is the country’s largest debit card-skimming operation. The accused are alleged to have gone to more than 20 McDonald’s restaurants in the Perth metropolitan area, swapping the pin keypads on EFTPOS (Switch) machines at the outlets’ drive-throughs in September and stole more than $AU4.5 million (£ 2.5million) from about 4,000 victims.
