Credit-card skimming devices at Florida gas stations and stores are on a dramatic rise this year.
State figures show 315 skimmers had been discovered at Florida gas pumps through July 18, compared to 120 skimmers discovered through the first seven months of 2016.
That represents a 160 percent increase in the illegal devices used to collect consumers' credit- or debit-card information.
