The man,who hasn’t been identified was arrested on Thursday 27th December after police searched his room at a hotel. ABS reported that, “the police found several credit cards and what appeared to be a card-skimming device.”
Investigators allege: “he was able to fraudulently get money from the ATMs on at least two occasions.”
