POLICE in Newport are investigating a scam where residents are persuaded to hand over their bank cards by people pretending to police officers.

Newport residents have reported individuals purporting to be police officers telling them their credit cards have been cloned and being told that the cards are now required as evidence. A courier was then sent to their homes to collect them.

Police have released these CCTV stills of people they would like to speak to in connection with the possible use of these bank cards.

If you recognise any of these men, please call 101 quoting log 71 04/11/13.
