A Moldovan national is facing several felony charges after being found with fraudulent credit cards.

41-year-old Anatolie Cataraga was pulled over on May 10 for tailgating a semi truck. The man reportedly agreed to a vehicle search, during which the officer found a hidden satchel behind the dashboard air vent.

It contained about 120 low quality credit cards and three passports, all with Cataraga’s photo but under different names.

Electronic skimming devices were also found in the compartment. Cataraga was taken to the Hobart Police Department and faces charges of Fraud on a Financial Institution, Identity Deception, Three Counts of Fraud and Unlawful Possession of a Card Skimming Device.
