A thief used a fraudulent Walmart gift card to rob the store of more than $900 worth of goods last Wednesday.
State police say that the unknown thief went into the White Township Walmart last Wednesday, July 14th and went to the register at 9:05 PM with two gift cards. The thief showed the cashier a fake sticker on the back of the card that said “press the cash button if the card does not work.” The cashier pressed the button, making the machine think that it received a cash payment for the card. The suspect did two transactions in this manner, racking up a total of $900 in gift cards, along with stealing merchandise from the store.
The suspect is a man, and was seen wearing a black “Champion” T-shirt, a black White Sox hat, blue jeans and sandals.
Anyone with information on the theft is asked to call police at 724-357-1960.
