Waiters Use Customer's Card While He's Still In The Restaurant
from the didn't-work-too-well... dept
There have been plenty of stories about waiters stealing credit card numbers with skimmer devices, but over in Shanghai, a pair of waiters couldn't even go through that much trouble. After picking up one diner's credit card, they immediately went next door and ordered $3,000 worth of mobile phones. This set off a bit of a well-placed alarm with the credit card company - who called him up to verify the purchase. The waiters were quickly arrested. The article has the understatement of the week: "The pair never intended to be waiters for long." No! Really?
