[flesso]

Credit card fraudsters from the US have been planning a supermark sweep in the UK to withdraw as much cash as possible from a haul of around 2500 cards, it has been bragged by a fraudster on one forum dedicated to the crime.

It has been discovered that UK criminals have been waiting for the details of what has been said to be a total of 2300 US credit cards that have been stolen using various methods. It is said that the plan was to use cloned cards at self-service checkouts throughout the UK, so the fraudsters could make of with as much cash as possible.

Well I believe in most cases there is at least one member of staff overlooking the actions of the self service checkouts, meaning that it may be a bit difficult for them...
