A taxi driver has been charged with theft and deception for allegedly using a credit card left behind by a passenger.
Adelaide police say a woman used her card to pay for a fare early on Sunday.
It is alleged the driver, 21, took note of the PIN and used the card to withdraw money from an auto-teller in the city.
The man allegedly fled when questioned while making a purchase at a food store and was arrested by police a short time later.
Phoenix Cab Driver Involved In Credit Card Identity Theft Scam
Phoenix SWAT team officers have broken down the door of a Phoenix taxi driver's home near Interstate 17 and Greenway Road.
Phoenix police officers were at the home to serve a search warrant in connection with an arrest made Wednesday at a grocery store, Sgt. Jason Davis said.
Police said Roberto Sambra used a stolen credit card to purchase groceries at the store. Since he used his personal club card, officers were able to track Sambra down and arrest him.
During the police interrogation, Sambra told officers he was given seven bogus credit cards from the taxi driver's house.
Officers went to the taxi driver's home on North 23rd Lane today to serve search warrants and investigate the man's allegations. That's where they arrested 28-year-old Jhoan Quiala in connection with the identity theft. They believe he was stealing the credit card information of his customers in order to make the fake cards for himself and his friends.
