SASKATOON – Police have issued a fraud alert advisory as they search for two men wanted for credit card fraud.

The men have attempted to use stolen credit card information in Saskatoon by way of card skimmers.

Skimmers are used to steal payment information during an otherwise legal transaction.

No skimmers have recently been found in Saskatoon but police say they are aware others have been installed in other cities in Western Canada.

Businesses are being reminded to be vigilant in monitoring debit and credit machines to ensure they have not been tampered or replaced.

Anyone with information on the suspects is asked to contact Saskatoon police at 306-975-8300 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
