Police are minutely examining a clever hidden camera device that may have allowed fraud artists to obtain the debit card information of hundreds of women who attended the Ninth Annual Women's Show at the Tradex – Trade and Exhibition Centre near Abbotsford Airport. The show is billed as the largest women's event in British Columbia with about 400 exhibition tables selling and promoting everything from fashion, health and wellness as well as travel destination. Police said they don't yet how many debit card numbers were compromised before a woman became curious about the hood on top of the ATM machine's keypad and took it to security.
