Suspects To Be Charged In Fake Gift Card Scheme

COMMERCE TOWNSHIP (WWJ) - Charges are expected soon against four Detroit men busted with fake gift cards.

Oakland County Sheriff deputies arrested the suspects after they went into a Meijer store on Haggerty Road in Commerce Township and paid for one item with a gift card and then used other gift cards to withdraw a bunch of cash from the self check-out lane.

When deputies arrived the men tried to get away by running into a Lowe's Store.

Police state the four suspects had several cloned gift cards and several thousand dollars in their possession.
