Cloning devices found on machines

Two cloning devices have been found at cash machines in north Devon.

The first discovery was made at 1000 BST when two men were reported acting suspiciously near the machine at a building society in Ilfracombe.

A similar device fell from a building society cash machine in Barnstaple on Monday, police said.

Anyone noticing a suspicious attachment on a cash machine has been asked not to touch it, but report it to police or the owner of the machine.

Police said the building societies have not yet received any complaints from customers about fraudulent activity.
