A woman who worked at a Hartsville Taco Bell allegedly took photos of customers’ credit cards, and then used the numbers to purchase items for herself, according to police documents.
Police said that Laquawanda Hawkins was “so brazen and slick about it that she even does it while the manager is right behind her stocking shelves,” according to an incident report.
The Taco Bell, located on South Fifth Street, is the same location as where another employee was accused of helping rob the business at gunpoint in January.
Police were called to the Taco Bell about the credit card fraud on June 6, according to a report. A victim said they were on their way to the beach when they received an alert that someone tried to use their credit card at a Pizza Hut in Hartsville. A copy of transactions the victim gave police revealed that purchases were made both in Hartsville and online.
Another report, dated June 10, included purchases at the same Taco Bell, along with $636 in Bird scooter rentals and at an Advance Auto.
