Man worried about credit card fraud

A man forgot his credit card at a bar at Bushard Street and Garfield Avenue about six weeks ago, and noticed multiple charges afterward for the Apple store and other locations; he canceled the card and was issued a new one. Saturday night, he left his card at the same bar again, he said, and has found numerous charges on it again. The man is concerned that an employee at the bar is stealing or copying the information from patrons’ cards.
