She then said a man shouted to her that she had left something in the trolley.
The victim left her car to check but could see there wasn’t anything there that belonged to her.
Later that evening she noticed her card was missing and called her bank.
Police said two transactions were made on her card by someone else, totalling more than £5,000.
