Police allege the man pictured used fraudulent credit cards applied for and received by unknown persons.

The man in whose name the cards were issued was unaware the cards existed until he received a bank statement in the mail, said Langley RCMP Cpl. Holly Largy. By then, one card had a balance of $10,000 US on it, she said.

On June 19, a wallet and keys were stolen from a vehicle in Langley. Police allege the pictured female used stolen cards from the wallet in a local convenience store on the same day. She is described to be in her 20s with bright dyed red hair.

Anyone with information that might assist with any of the above investigations, is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200. To remain anonymous, call Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
