Henry police search for credit card fraud suspects

Henry County police are looking for two men who used fake credit cards in metro Atlanta on June 5.

The two men rode throughout the area in a black Buick Lacrosse using fake cards with victims’ credit card information on them. The men stole $10,340 this way, police said.

A third suspect was the getaway driver, Henry County police spokesman Sgt. Joey Smith told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Police think the Buick could have a North Carolina tag.

Smith said police are still trying to figure out how many victims were involved in the scam, but there is surveillance video from the Walmart on Hudson Bridge Road in Stockbridge.

Henry County police ask that anyone with information on the suspects contact Detective Velez at 770-288-8254 or at rvelez@co.henry.ga.us.
