Warner Robins La'Berry Shop Reports Card Fraud | Crime

The La'Berry Frozen Yogurt Café Co. says credit cards for some customers at its Warner Robins store have been compromised.

Company president Jack Largent told 13WMAZ 's Lorra Lynch Jones that he's heard of at least three breaches that led to unauthorized purchases after people used their credit cards at the Warner Robins store.

He says he doesn't know why or how it happened, but they are taking "extra" measures to prevent theft in the future.

He said the breach apparently did not affect their north Macon store.

Several people contacted 13WMAZ this week, by phone or e-mail or Facebook, to say they had credit-card problems after visiting the store at 209 Margie Drive.

Earlier Wednesday, Warner Robins police said they had one report, and the Houston County sheriff's department said they had several reports of credit-card fraud that may be linked to the store. They said that could be a coincidence, and they could not definitely link the cases to the store.

They said they had not received an unusual number of credit-card fraud cases this month.

The Savannah-based company released this statement:

La'Berry Frozen Yogurt Café Co. has been advised and sorry that, our customers, after using their credit cards in our store in Warner Robins have had their cards compromised.

We have had our system tested and reviewed by our processing company, an independent company and our POS hosting company, to make sure every transaction is safe and secure for our customers.

Please, be confident that we have, also, added extra security measures to ensure that any credit card used in our establishment will be safe and secure.

We would like to extend to any customer that has had their card compromised, a gift from La'Berry Frozen Yogurt Café Co. to show you how much we value you and your business.

Jack Largent, President
La'Berry Frozen Yogurt Café Co.
