A WOMAN had her bank card stolen by what police believe to be the second incident of its kind in Twyford in the space of a week.
At around 5pm on Wednesday, December 16, a woman was approached in the car park of Waitrose by two women who did not speak very good English. They asked her for her trolley, followed her back to her car and began loading her shopping into it.
At some point they managed to steal a bank card which she had used at the ATM machine. It is believed that they saw the woman’s PIN number and subsequently made 13 transactions with it until the bank was notified of the theft.
One of the women is described as about 5ft 3in tall, around mid-30s, with brown hair in a pony tail, and wearing brown glasses and a fawn rain coat. The other woman was taller with long blond hair.
The theft follows another incident in London Road when a woman was approached by a woman, who did not speak English, at a bus stop asking to exchange some money.
Anyone who may have seen these women, or even been approached by them in similar circumstances, are asked to call the Thames Valley Police enquiry centre on 101.
