Melbourne Crime Investigation Unit detectives are appealing for public assistance to identify thieves who used stolen credit cards in Melbourne’s CBD on 2 March.
Police have been told a purse containing credit cards was stolen during a burglary at a business on Bourke Street between 8.20pm and 9pm.
The victim’s credit cards were then used later that day at retail stores in Melbourne.
A number of items were purchased including cigarettes and drinks worth more than $60.
Police have released images of two men who they believe may be able to assist with their enquiries.
Both men are believed to be aged 30 to 40-years old and they were carrying an air horn at the time of the offence.
The first man is described as having an olive complexion with a dark moustache and goatee, wearing all black clothing.
The second man is perceived to be Caucasian in appearance, with a solid build, tattoos on his forearm, wearing a white and black cap, white t-shirt, black pants, black runners and satchel bag across his body.
