Rick Overhalt, whose credit cards were stolen, told KPRC Local 2 that he doesn't want anyone else to go through what he experienced.

"Obviously, he's doing this as a career and I would hate to think someone else has to go through the same headaches I'm going through," Overhalt said.

A $5,000 reward is being offered for information that leads to an arrest and conviction in this case.

Anyone with information should call Crime Stoppers at (713) 222-TIPS.
