Three men caught in relation to Hawke's Bay credit card theftsANDREW QUILTY/FAIRFAX NZ Contactless credit cards are easy targets for thieves.

Police arrested three men on Saturday who are believed to be related to vehicle break-ins at different parks and recreational areas across the region. The offenders were particularly targeting 'pay wave' (contactless) credit cards which they had then been using to purchase items, Detective Sergeant Darren Pritchard said.
