Um, so we had an incident down here at um, Fifth Bank that somebody was using your personal information and account number, forging it to uh, cash a check in your name. >> Okay. I just wanted to ask you again. >> Palm Beach Gardens Police Department in Florida. >> I already took care of all of that. I went to my back and took care of all that. >> No. So, we some somebody today tried to use your account information with your your personal information and your name and we're here now with them and we just wanted to I wanted to ask a couple questions. First off, you you obviously didn't know you don't know of anyone or didn't authorize anybody to do this in your name. Is that correct? >> Why? >> Okay. And another thing, if uh would you like to prosecute? So you are depicting of this crime. >> They didn't get to use it. So they did okay because they didn't get to use it. >> So they they were actually successful um at another bank down in on North Lake. Um and they were here at at this bank with your information trying to do the same thing and and cash it with your information. So they successfully have your information with your account number and everything and and they try to cash a check in your name. Well, it didn't happen. >> Okay. So, this is officer Romero. So, what is it that you think that it didn't happen? >> Because the your your bank account information and your name took care of everything. So, it didn't happen cuz this is not the first time. >> It's not the first time somebody's trying to do this in your account, >> right? >> So, okay. I'm just curious how the information is getting is getting uh passed to these guys. >> I don't know. But you know what? I don't know you. You don't know me. So, I'm not going to talk to you. You know, the last person that tried to do this to me doing going through the same thing that you're going through, but I'm not going to do it. >> So, you're not going to prosecute for your personal information? >> Not count. That's the only thing that matters with me. Bye. All right. Yep. She She reclined. So go ahead and run me through what happened. >> He walked into the branch. He came to the transaction bar. That's the tea station. Branch looks a little different. We asked for his ID. He gave the ID. He said he needs to cash a check. It said kitchen cabinet on like the left side. The memo. She said, "Oh, you do kitchen work?" He said, "Yes." I said, "We got to ask you a few questions before we cash the check." So, I had to ask him for the social security, make sure the information was correct that he was providing. >> Is this a check here? >> No. >> Where is the check? >> Back at my branch. I didn't know I needed to bring it. I'm sorry. I thought he just needed me to come here. I misunderstood what you needed. >> That's fine. If anything, we can get someone over there. >> Okay. And then um cashed it. Boom. He walked out and then he came here. >> And then what happened here? So when he came when he left North Lake, um the manager over there, not her, another manager I worked with many years, she called me and she said, "Did you see the email that Francisco sent out?" And I said, "Yes." She said, "He was just here and we gave him money." I said, "What? Why would you do that?" She says, "Uh" and then she described him to me. She says, "Hor his penic blue shirt, blue jeans, and um piercing on his face." So I said, "Okay." um because he had gone to previous banks. So the other branch manager in Lakeworth sent out an email when he left Lake. But she before >> he went to that branch before the email came up but I got it before he came here. So then Lisa called me and while I'm talking to so funny he walked right in. So I'm like who I now I was telling them about what Lisa was saying and then he walked in and that's it. So I asked him and he says he only to cash a check. So I said, "Okay, Brianna will be more than happy to assist you." Brianna is the teller. And he went up to Brianna. So I said, "I have to come around and help you, Brianna." Cuz I wanted to let her know who he is. And I went around and I I said, "That's him. I was just telling her about don't cash it, but I pretend like I'm coming." So then I run to her, I said, "Call the police right away." >> So she you you were the one helping him here? >> No. No. >> So you're from the other branch as well. So you >> the one helping was this right up here. Brianna is alive. >> Okay, I'll talk to her after this. >> Just stay there. >> So, she was she was helping her him here >> and then you obviously read the email. You came around to confirm that it was him at that time. You did? >> Actually, when I read the email, he wasn't here yet. So, I read the email and went out now and was talking to them because the other lady just called me and we were on the phone. So, I went out to tell him everything. While we were talking, he walked in. >> Oh, okay. So, as you were getting this information that he just did this to the the location on North Lake >> Mhm. >> you saw him walk in, >> then you called us. >> Yes. >> Perfect. >> I'm looking for a William. >> Who's calling, please? >> This is Officer Shaki with Palm Beach Gardens Police Department. >> Which police department? >> Palm Beach Gardens. >> Palm Beach Guard for William. >> Okay, just one second. >> Thank you.

Just hold on to both already know about that. >> Hello. >> Hi, William. >> Yes, >> Mr. Dwire. How you doing? It's officer Palmer Gardens Police Department. Um, it seems to me that you're already aware that somebody's been trying to fraudulently use your information. >> That's correct. So, down here in Palm Beach Gardens, one of our one of the banks in our city, um he was actually able to successfully use your information to uh cash a check and with in your name with your account number and all that. Um we have the we have the suspect and and we're wondering obviously you did not give this person permission, anything of that of that nature to do to do this. Correct. >> That's correct. >> Okay. And would you like to prosecute for this? What was the amount of the check? >> I'm sorry. >> How much was the check for? >> 1,940. >> Okay. Um, you know, I've been in touch with my bank. Um, we have a joint account and um I noticed that this person tried twice before. >> Yeah. >> Yes. In West Palm in West Palm Beach, I believe in Boon Beach, which is a whole separate jurisdiction. Okay. Um, the was the check successfully cashed or not? >> Yes. And in our jurisdiction at Palm Beach Gardens, the check was successfully cashed for $1,002. >> $91. >> She was two church right here. You talking about >> 1941? 1941, I think, was what it was, right? >> Yes. >> Okay. Now, um, first of all, to prosecute, do we have to be further involved than that? Um, no. >> No. Okay.

Okay. >> Yeah. >> Um, Fifth Third Bank basically communicated between themselves saying, "Hey, this is a guy. You might be coming trying to cash some checks." We called Winter and we were able to arrest them after he cashed their check and recovered the money. >> So, basically what Elsa is asking me, will you press charges for this guy? Will you have him placed into jail for what he did? >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Okay. >> All right. So, um, we're going to need all your information and we'll probably going to be taking a statement from you. It's going to be on our cameras, but it's going to be basically um over the phone. So, the officer is going to swear you in and you're going to explain to him uh all the uh problems and stuff that been going on in the account and at the end whether or not you want to prosecute.
