Detectives at Moonee Valley Crime Investigation Unit are appealing for public assistance to identify a man allegedly using a stolen credit card in Melbourne’s inner suburbs.

Police have been told a car was broken into on Carnarvon Road in Strathmore on Sunday 21 June and the victim’s bankcard was stolen.

Investigators believe the stolen credit card was later used at a number of convenience stores in Essendon, Moonee Ponds, Collingwood and Fitzroy.

The offender is described as Caucasian in appearance, with a medium build and brown hair.

He was wearing a black beanie with a white logo on the front, blue hooded jacket, dark pants and white shoes.

He was also carrying a backpack at the time of the incidents.

Police have released an image of a man that may assist with their enquiries.
