Deputies said they know of three victims, but there could be more victims, because the pair is known to travel from Orange County to Dade County.

Two of the thefts were reported at Ross and Marshalls stores in Osceola County.

Detectives said they searched the home of one of the women and discovered stolen property and gift cards.

Anyone with information about the incidents is asked to call the Osceola County Sheriff's Office.
