Sutton police have issued a picture of a woman they are hunting in connection with a credit card stolen back in June.
It belongs to an 85-year-old woman who fell victim to a bank courier scam.
The lady from Wallington was tricked into revealing her PIN and handing over the card, after receiving a bogus phone call telling her it needed to be replaced.
Later that day it was used to buy alcohol in a Croydon newsagents, where the user was captured on CCTV.
Another £3,000 worth of purchases were made on the card later the same day.
The incident happened on Tuesday, June 17, and Sutton detectives think the woman is from the Wallington area.
