It was found by a customer at the convenience store on Route 130 on Monday, April 1, Cinnaminson police said.

A review of surveillance footage revealed the device was placed on the ATM at 9:21 p.m. on March 22, Cinnaminson police said.

Skimmers are card readers designed to look like a part of the ATM. They collect debit card numbers and PIN codes. The stolen data is then used to make counterfeit debit cards.

Anyone who used a debit or credit card since March 22 is advised to review their bank statements for possible fraudulent activity. 

Authorities ask people who find suspicious activity to notify their bank and then call the police department’s non-emergency number at 856-829-6666 to make a report.
