May 21, 2014

A man from Queens has been arrested after a card skimmer was found on a ticket kiosk operated by New York’s Metropolitan Transportation Authority at Grand Central Station, My Fox News New York reports.

In the last month, criminals installed a skimmer at a MetroCard machine at the Columbus Circle Station.

My Fox News said the MTA plans to introduce an app that allows customers to buy their transit tickets from smartphones or tablets.
