MACON, MO. -- The Macon Police Department has received several reports over the last few days of fraudulent use of credit and debit devices. Victims have reported finding unauthorized use of bank and credit card accounts.

At this time, the department is not seeing that the fraudulent activities are business specific, bank specific or even card company specific.

It is highly recommended to everyone that they closely monitor bank and credit cards on a daily basis or even more often if possible.  You should look for any suspicious activities on your accounts including credits added from unknown sources.  For greater protection, consider changing passwords, PINs or even requesting new debit and or credit card numbers when possible.

Anyone finding they are victim to fraudulent activity should report to their local law enforcement as quickly as possible to help collect information in the investigation.
