    The Costa Rica News (TCRN) โ€“ Costa Rica authorities identified 2 Canadians with the surnames Dejaney, Ghanathas, Asantarajah and Kishokumar, that were arrested last week in San Jose for the crime of computer fraud.

    The Judiciary said in a statement that the Canadians, aged between 25 and 36 years, apparently secured credit cards from people from Canada and then โ€œmade ATM withdrawalsโ€ in Costa Rica.

    โ€œHis modus operandi was to use magnetic stripe information of cardholders and plastics included in silver or white, without any logo, name, numbers or other security badges,โ€ said the bulletin.

    Officials estimate that the Canadians withdrew at least $50,000 from ATMs.

    At the time of their arrest the officers seized 150 cards and a device that allowed them to insert the same data on the magnetic strips. EFE
