Skimming devices found at several Wawa locations in Delaware
Delaware State Police are investigating after they say skimming devices were discovered at several Wawa locations in Sussex County.
SUSSEX Co. – The Delaware State Police have started an investigation after they say skimming devices were found on the self-checkout kiosks at several Wawa locations in Sussex County.
Police say anyone who has completed transactions at the following Wawa locations listed below between August 31, 2024, and September 14, 2024, should review their banking or credit card accounts for fraudulent transactions:
- 24930 John J Williams Highway, Millsboro, Delaware
- 30155 Veterans Way, Wawa, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware
- 35436 Wolfe Neck Rd, Wawa, Rehoboth, Delaware
- 17663 Dartmouth Dr, Lewes, Delaware
Tips to avoid skimming devices
In addition to urging folks to check their accounts for fraudulent activity, police have also shared a list of tips to help avoid becoming victim to skimming devices.
- Check for a camera. Cameras could be used to record the PINs being entered. Avoid using the debit payment option where PINs are required.
- Tap-to-pay is currently the most secure method of payment, followed by the EMV chip payment method.
- Check for signs of tampering. Pull on the card slot and wiggle the keypad since the skimming devices are usually placed directly over the actual slot.
What happens if I find a potential skimming device?
- Notify the business management.
- Monitor banking or credit accounts for fraudulent transactions.
- Report any suspicious activity to law enforcement.
The Delaware State Police Financial Crimes Unit will continue to investigate this incident.
Anyone who witnessed or has information regarding this case should contact Sergeant A. Morris by calling (302) 752-3806.
You can also send information by sending a private Facebook message to the Delaware State Police or contacting Delaware Crime Stoppers at 1-800-847-3333.

Buffalo woman pleads guilty to charges in connection with vandalism at The Terrace at Delaware Park
BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — A Buffalo woman has pleaded guilty to charges in connection with vandalism at The Terrace at Delaware Park in October 2025.
The Erie County District Attorney’s Office announced that 40-year-old Stacy M. Matthews pleaded guilty before Buffalo City Court Judge Rebecca Town to one count of fourth-degree criminal mischief and one count of endangering the welfare of a child.
Erie County District Attorney’s Office
According to the DA, on October 16, 2025, Matthews drove six juveniles under her care to a business on Lincoln Parkway, and the juveniles, between the ages of 10 and 16, intentionally vandalized outdoor furniture and windows, causing approximately $2,000 in damage to the property.
The DA said that as a condition of the plea, Matthews signed a Confession of Judgment to pay $2,000 in restitution to the victim. Matthews faces a maximum of 364 days in jail when she is sentenced on June 9, 2026 and a temporary order of protection, issued on behalf of the property owner, remains in effect.
7 News spoke with Mike Shatzel, co-owner of The Terrace at Delaware Park, where the vandalism occurred, last October.
“It’s just disturbing that people have nothing better to do than come and just destroy things,” Shatzel said in October.
