Credit Card Reader Scams Plague Bakersfield

Bakersfield police have received 14 reports of scam card readers in 2023, mostly found in ATMs, self-checkouts, and gas pumps. Police advise people to be aware of suspicious cameras or activity and report it immediately to authorities. Scammers may face different types of felony charges. Customers are encouraged to wiggle the part of the device where they put their card to make sure it's not loose and to be aware when they're about to pay.
