Police are searching for two men after a card skimming device was installed on an ATM in Mt Eden, Auckland in July.

Card skimming devices are used to read bank cards, enabling thieves to steal account information from the magnetic strips of ATM cards.

Auckland police posted photographs of the pair on their Facebook page in an appeal for information.

"Can you help us identify and find the two men pictured?" they asked.

"On Saturday July 4, 2015, these men put a skimming machine on a Westpac ATM at 184 Dominion Rd in Mt Eden between 1.57pm and 6.54pm.

"This resulted in a number of fraudulent transactions in China a few days later, between July 9 and July 11."

In July, Auckland man Ivaylo Valchev Terziivanov, 28, avoided a jail term for his involvement in a half-million-dollar ATM scam.

The offending, which involved installing skimming devices on cash machines, took place between February and July last year.

He admitted 64 charges including using counterfeit bank cards for personal gain, illegally obtaining documents, and possessing implements for forgery.

Terziivanov was sentenced to 10 months' home detention and ordered to repay $20,000 after appearing in Auckland District Court.
