Truckers who filled up at the Flying J Travel Center in north Aurora last week may be victims of credit card skimmers installed at four gasoline pumps, police say.
The clandestine devices blend in visually with card readers and are used by criminals to capture financial data that may be used fraudulently.
Aurora police wrote in a social media post that the skimmers were installed between May 25 and May 31 at the gas station, near Interstate 70 and Airport Boulevard.
The devices were removed but stolen from the business before they could be recovered by officers, police said. The identity of the person who planted them was unknown to police as of Friday evening.
Customers who used the No. 22 and No. 24 diesel pumps during that time should notify their dispatch centers or banks and cancel their cards, and may contact Detective Steve Cox with questions at 303-739-6060.
Anyone with information about the incident is encouraged to contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867 or online.
