I know of about 20 people now who have had their cards jacked in the last week, in addition to those reported here. Cards are both credit and debit. Different card companies and different banks. Nothing more than suspicions at this time as to the common denominator(s) for the thefts. Many charges are in south Florida at Walmart, others in S Florida at Walgreens and Marshalls. Some suspect gas station, and others suspect grocery store, while others think a bar, and a couple think it may be the bank as the point of theft. Again, all speculation as of right now.
Walton County Investigator sends the following notice:
I am requesting that all Victims meet with Investigator Donna Armstrong and I at the South Walton Sheriff’s Office Sub-Station on Friday March 9, 2012 at 10:00 A.M.
During this meeting formal complaints will be taken by the Sheriff’s Office. Please have the following information at the meeting.
A copy of your Bank Statement for the period that the fraudulent charges occurred. If a bank statement is not available, the dates, times, locations, and amounts of the fraudulent charges will be needed to file a formal complaint.
The South Walton Sub-Station is located at 133 Sheriff’s Drive in Santa Rosa Beach. On the east side of 331 just south of the water tower.
Thank You.
