Credit Card Fraud Scheme Broken Up on Seattle’s Capitol Hill
The Seattle Times reports Seattle police passed along information to federal agents that pointed to a high-tech credit card fraud scheme on Capitol Hill. Members of the Secret Service’s Seattle Electronic Crimes Task Force, who have advanced training in computer forensics, were sent to the neighborhood and “were immediately able to put a stop to the fraud,” Bob Kierstead, assistant special agent in charge of the service’s Seattle field office, said Friday.
