Credit card fraud reported at UNMH
UNMH employee Maila Sanchez was working the graveyard shift between Dec. 30 and 31 when someone used her credit card without her knowing, according to the UNMPD report. According to the report, CitiBank called about suspicious purchases made with the card, and when she looked for the card in her purse, she saw that it wasn’t in the place she usually kept it. Sanchez told police she suspects someone took the card, made a note of the card number, and put it back. Her purse was “in a secure area with limited access, by key card only, to hospital personnel.”
The unknown suspect used the card to purchase an iPad 2 and ship it to an address in Texas, according to the report. Police were unable to obtain latent fingerprints from the card. Sanchez told police she had alerted security and they were working to access video surveillance of the incident at the time of the report. No further information was available at the time.
