BRENHAM PD ADVISES CAUTION WHEN MAKING CREDIT/DEBIT CARD PURCHASES DURING THE HOLIDAYS

  

The Brenham Police Department is reminding holiday shoppers to take great care when making credit or debit card purchases.

The department says it has noticed an uptick in fraudulent activity involving credit and debit cards.

The public is encouraged to use cash when possible, or to use a pin pad when paying with a credit or debit card. 

Police also advise residents against allowing anyone to take their card out of sight.  Regularly monitoring purchases with online or in-person banking is recommended, so that any fraudulent activity can be flagged and reported.

Anyone who has concerns can contact the Brenham Police Department at 979-337-7337.
