The information is then printed on to a plastic sheet with self adhesive backing. It is attached to one of these plastic cards and trimmed to fit. A copy of the back of the card is also scanned and attached to the back of the fraudulent card. When a cashier swipes the card, it does not work, so they check the card against the suspect’s identification. That information will match and then the suspect has the cashier manually enter the credit card number. Since it is from a valid account, the transaction will process. The only information needed by the suspect is a valid account number and expiration date.

“People aren’t going to believe it when they get there. We’ve never had our site feel so sophisticated and vibrant, and yet so easy to navigate. Everything they’ll be looking for is all right there in one place,” says Tracey Wittenfeld, Puyallup Fair marketing manager.

The site features a simpler and more sophisticated pan and scan navigation experience, which directs visitors to branded pages within the site. Visitors find themselves in a virtual Fair world, where they can pan and scan left and right between three-dimensional layers and iconic symbols of the Fair.

The additional retail space will be used to better display products and expand select lines. The expansion was expected to be complete by Sept. 1.
