Two women are suspected of using a stolen credit card number on Jan. 17 at the Target on Highway 153. They are suspected of purchasing $480 worth of goods, according to a Greater Chattanooga Area Crime Stoppers news release.

The actual card holder was still in possession of his card at the time of the purchases, leading investigators to believe that the credit card number had been stolen using a “skimmer.” The suspects then created a dummy card, with the information obtained by the skimmer, which they used during the shopping spree.

If you can identify these women or have any information please call the Crime Stoppers Hotline, 423-698-3333. Your confidential call could make you eligible for a cash reward.
