A CCTV image has been released of a fraudster who used a dementia sufferer's bank card.  

The suspect is wanted after approximately £1,500 was stolen from the victim in his 80s.

Police say several unauthorised withdrawals were made from the man's bank account in early July. 

The suspect was captured on CCTV using the man’s card at an ATM cash machine in Francis Road, Leyton, on July 7 at around 10am.

It is not known how he came to be in possession of the card and PIN number.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Waltham Forest police on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
