Look Out: Texas Police Offer Huge Reward For H-E-B Fraudster

Police in New Braunfels, Texas are searching for a woman who has allegedly committed multiple fraudulent credit/ debit card purchases.

Luckily, the H-E-B Plus! grocery store located on FM 306 in New Braunfels captured clear, color images of the woman, including a distinctive cross tattoo on the back of her neck.

It appears she also has some script tattooed under the cross as well. It makes me wonder why she went to the trouble of a hat and sunglasses, only to put her hair up and quite possibly give herself away.

If you know this woman, you could collect a hefty reward for her capture/ grand jury indictment- $4000!

You can leave an anonymous tip and still collect the reward by calling Crime Stoppers at 830-620-TIPS (8477), leaving a tip online at http://comalcrimestoppers.org/, or sending a tip using the “P3 Tips” smartphone app available on iOS and Android devices.

Credit card fraud is estimated to cost businesses and individuals in the U.S. over $165 billion over the next ten years. Credit card fraud is the second most common type of identity theft- a deeply unpleasant and terrifying experience for the victim.

To avoid identity theft by credit card fraud, be sure to check your credit report frequently. There are various free apps for this, I use Credit Karma. Additionally always report lost or stolen cards immediately.
