WILLIAMSBURG — A woman who took a black car to Williamsburg from JFK returned home to find that the credit card she used to pay for the ride had nearly $2,700 in unauthorized charges, police said.
The woman, 28, said she was solicited by a man in a black four-door sedan at JFK Airport on June 1 at about 6 p.m., police said. He offered her a flat-rate ride back to her home on Driggs Avenue near Grand Street for $45, police said.
When they arrived at her building, the driver handed her a black box, where she swiped her card and entered her PIN number, police said.
Later, the woman realized that $2,686 in unauthorized charges had been made on the card, police said.
The man was described as about 35 years old, 5-foot-11 and 205 pounds.
No one has been arrested for the incident.
