MANHATTAN — A woman used stolen credit card numbers to withdraw more than $1,700 from at least three ATMs in lower Manhattan and Queens, according to the NYPD.

The woman first withdrew $400 from a 59-year-old man’s account on Aug. 7, an NYPD spokesman said.

The following day she took $600 from a 24-year-old man.

Then on Sept. 6 she stole $706 from a 55-year-old male victim’s account.

All three men found out from their banks that their accounts had been compromised.

The woman may have used a skimmer to attain the credit card numbers, the spokesman added.

She has blonde hair and was last seen wearing a dark baseball hat, light long-sleeved shirt and dark-colored sneakers.

Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). You can also submit tips by logging onto the Crime stoppers website at www.nypdcrimestoppers.com
