Investigators believe the same woman has been involved in up to 24 petrol drive-offs in Melton, Taylors Lakes, Ravenhall, Burnside, Derrimut, Deer Park, Kealba, Ardeer, St Albans and Sunshine.

She is perceived to be Caucasian in appearance, aged between 25-and-35-years-old, with a stocky build, and long blonde hair which at times has been died pink.
