It's fraud, it's ID theft, and it's a continuing problem.  The Wilkes Sheriff's Office was called recently regarding the unauthorized use of a debit card.  The Wilkes County victim reported that her debit card information had been used to make an online purchase at a business in California for about 26 dollars.  The same victim said their debit card was also used to make a purchase at Dell for over 500 dollars.  The victim was able to contact her bank and get the 500 dollar transaction stopped.  The victim is working her bank to determine any other unauthorized use of her card and with the Sheriff's Office to determine who might have obtained her debit card information.
