Detectives investigating the theft and subsequent fraudulent use of a bank card are issuing CCTV images of a man they would like to identify.

Sometime between Monday 15 April and Monday 22 April 2024, a bank card and PIN number were intercepted in the post at an address in West Horsley in Surrey.

The bank card was subsequently used on Monday 22 April 2024 to make fraudulent withdrawals of cash from various Natwest bank branches in Dorset, Somerset and Hampshire, totalling £10,800.

“As part of my enquiries, I have obtained CCTV images of a man believed to be using the stolen bank card and I would ask anyone with information about his identity to please come forward.”
