A Sydney man will face court after allegedly being found in possession of stolen credit cards and other identification cards.

Police say they saw the man acting suspiciously at some letterboxes in Croydon Park on Monday before getting into his car and driving away.

Officers followed the vehicle for a short time before pulling it over and conducting a search.

Police will allege the 35-year-old man was a suspended driver, and found in possession of 35 different credit cards, two identification cards, two Medicare cards and three gift cards, all confirmed as stolen.

The man was taken to Campsie Police Station where he was charged.

He was refused bail and will appear in Burwood Local Court on Tuesday.
