Second "Skimmer" Found at Brady Gas Stations

 

BRADY, TX — For the second time in two months, a credit card "skimmer" was found to be installed to a gas pump at a local convenience store.

According to a press release from the Brady Police Department, these "skimmers" are connected internally, therefore almost impossible to detect by just looking at the pump itself. This report means that we now know the fuel pumps at both Yesway and Berkley's (South Bridge Street) have been tampered with.

For the time being, we are suggesting that customers go inside the business to make their payment rather than using the "pay at the pump" option. We realize this is inconvenient but believe it is the best way to safeguard your accounts.
