An Aldi spokeswoman declined to give details about the case but the Chicago Tribune is reporting that over 200 people were affected who shopped at the Aldi store in Wheeling. Law Officials were notified of hundreds of cases of unauthorized withdrawls ranging from $100 to $900 from accounts of people who shopped at the store, according to the paper.
St. Charles police say they have had 32 reports of debit card fraud from Aldi shoppers.
