CASE #: 2018-1429

A resident of rural Wymore called the Gage County Sheriff’s Office and spoke with a deputy regarding charges to her credit card she had not authorized. The victim told the deputy her credit card had been charged for subscribing to Showtime and Starz movie channels in September and October 2017 and had also been used in February and March 2018 for purchasing Hulu. Her credit card company and PayPal, which processed the Hulu charges, credited her account. 

An investigator for the Gage County Sheriff’s Office spoke with the victim who agreed to provide copies of financial records for this case for follow-up investigation.

The Gage County Sheriff’ Office encourages residents to closely monitor their financial and credit statements and accounts and to verify or challenge the company the validity of those charges.  If the charges are fraudulent, contact the local police department where you live or call the Gage County Sheriff’s Office and ask to speak with an investigator.
