Two cab drivers face a total of 26 charges after it is alleged they stole their customers’ debit cards by switching them with ones that resembled their financial institution.

The investigation started in 2015 after police received complaints from taxi customers of having their debit cards “switched” after having paid their taxi fare, police said in a press release Tuesday morning.

After returning a card that resembled the customers’ financial institution, the cab drivers then used the original cards to withdraw funds and to buy merchandise.

Police say 26-year-old Muhammad Tariq of Toronto and 25-year-old Ahmed Dogar of Toronto have been arrested. Both have been charged with theft of a credit card, six counts of possessing a credit card obtained by crime, five counts of fraud under, one count of fraud over, and three counts of forgery.

Both men are scheduled to appear in court today.

Toronto police is reminding people to be vigilant when using debit cards at “Point of Sale” machines.

“Always maintain possession of your card and ensure you request a receipt,” the press release said.

They are concerned that there may be other victims.

They are asking anyone with information contact police at 416-808-7239 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477).
