Police: Stolen credit cards used to nab $8,500 in 8 minutes

WASHINGTON – You could call them the “Eight Minute Mammas.”

Police are looking for two women who used stolen credit cards to buy about $8,500 in gift cards from the Target in Rockville, Maryland. And they did it in eight minutes.

Montgomery County police say the pair walked into Target about 7:20 p.m. Dec. 5. They were at the register at 7:24 p.m. and out the door with activated gift cards by 7:28 p.m.

The victim’s credit card companies alerted her that same night that her cards were used to make large purchases of $4,000 each on a Visa and an American Express plus another $503 on a MasterCard, police say.
