WITH Christmas looming 'tis the season to be careful, warn Swindon police.
Detectives have uncovered a gang in Swindon suspected of using fake credit cards to spend more than £100,000 in the town.
Sophisticated "skimming" machines the size of cigarette packets can copy someone's card in the blink of eye, warn officers.
So the moral of this festive tale is keep a very close eye on every transaction you make and let's help police bag this gang quickly.
