Here’s a tip: don’t steal.

A Tribeca waiter at a popular bistro was busted after he swiped credit card information from dozens of unsuspecting customers — so he could go on an illicit $126,000 shopping spree, sources said.

Jaiquan Ibraheem, 30, used a skimming device to steal debit and credit card numbers from more than 120 patrons in the Kutsher’s Tribeca Restaurant on Franklin Street, according to court records.

He ran the ruse between Feb. 1 and April 30, records show.

During a two-month period, Ibraheem allegedly scammed 110 Chase credit card accounts — and later made nearly $90,000 in purchases at various Manhattan stores, records show.

Using the skimmer, he also compromised other credit card accounts from American Express, Citibank and Discover, court records show.

One of the banks noticed the illegal activity and quickly notified cops, sources said.

On Tuesday, detectives picked up Ibraheem, who was charged with multiple counts of grand larceny and scheme to defraud.

He is being held on $30,000 bond.
