I went outside. >> I called in front. I came back. They say want to speak to my manager to verify me. The only way to do that to change my passcode for my verification. >> Okay. >> You feel me? Cuz she said that they she said that somebody came in yesterday and they red flag me. >> I told her I said, "Ma'am, I will come inside back in the bank if you want me to and verify myself." >> And that's what I did. And as soon as I came asked her, "Do you have a manager?" Y'all came and put me in handcuffs. After getting a rundown of how the detainment unfolded, the officer starts asking pointed questions about the check, but the man's answers only raise more suspicion. >> Um, so you cash the check yesterday or no? >> No. No. >> Okay. >> I didn't cash no check. >> And where is the check that you cash or that you're trying to cash today from? Where's it from? >> You said what? >> The check that you're trying to deposit today or cash today? Where's it from? >> It's from a grant loan. >> A grant loan from what state? >> Texas. >> Texas. Okay. Uh, what's the grant loan for? Are you in school or something or >> I'm like, what the heck? >> I'm just trying to Is something wrong with the check or something? Like, >> I'm confused. That's why I'm looking at you like that. Like, I'm trying to figure out what's going cuz I was just talking to the clerk. She didn't tell me nothing about this. And now you were telling me about a check and all this stuff. And then she was telling me, "Oh, well, we could deposit. It's going to take 5 days." But I was like, "Why would you deposit a check if I can't even get if I have a red flag and I can't get a deposit? I can't get a debit card." So I she told her the only way you could do that if you can't verify you through us call the bank. So I went outside he was outside early. I went outside and I jumped in the car and I was on the phone with Navy Federal. Okay. >> And then they she told me she don't know why they couldn't verify me. Go back in the bank so they can speak to the manager. I came in. I asked for the manager and that was it. >> Which car is yours outside? >> H Which car is yours outside? >> Which car is mine? It's um it's a Charger. Well, it's not my car. It's my people's car. Do you drive yourself here or? >> No, my friend is in the car. >> Okay. Uh, how'd you get the check? Where'd you get the check from? >> They sent you in the mail. >> To which house? >> To the 20. The one on my ID. >> Okay. And where is that? You know your address? >> I don't know by heart or I'm not from I just moved. I'm not from Orlando. I can't really tell you the address by heart and stuff. >> How long you been living in Orlando? >> Probably like 2, three years. >> Two, three years. And you don't know your address? I just moved and stuff like I don't I don't know the address by heart. I can get you the ID if you need the ID and stuff. I don't I don't know nothing about no bad. I don't have no bad check. I have not done nothing wrong. >> Okay. >> I have not done nothing wrong. But I'm like >> eager to explain. The man offers more of his backstory, but the officer picks up on several inconsistencies that don't quite add up. >> Well, I want you to be truthful with me. >> I am being truthful. Why I come in here with a bad check? I've been coming here for years. I I never had a fraudulent problem with my Navy Federal. >> Okay. >> And the Navy Federal account that you have right now is under your name. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. How long have you had that bank account? >> I had I've been with Navy Federal for like 5 years. >> That's always the same account number. >> Always. No, I had uh No, I had called in because I had a problem with a female that I was dealing with. She had my information stuff and so I cancelled those cards and I cancelled my online. So now like I got to a point where like usually if you call your your debit card they'll tell you press this or put your 16 digit code I got to a point where I say my name it go straight to the operator. That's the securityities I have. >> They go straight to where? >> To the operator. >> Okay. >> Like you couldn't you know you can't check my available balance or none of that cuz I went through a scam problem. >> Okay. >> Bless you. >> So now you got a new account number. >> Yes. I got a new account number. >> Okay. So what was she saying about verifying the check or verifying? >> She didn't say nothing about verify the check. said that was an issue with verification. What was the issue with verification? >> Issue cuz I had two debit cards. >> Okay. >> But what is what that had to do with anything? That's not nothing. >> I think she was saying that two debit cards went to >> a separate account to like a different account. I didn't >> cuz that part one of that old debit cards for that old account that I closed with my online account. >> Okay. >> So that's the same. It's the same check is the same account when it goes to the online. I closed that because a girl got my information. That's all that's should be all on report and documented. Okay. So, like I said, let me go back. Let me verify all the documents. Let me see everything that they have and then I'll come back and and then, you know, if I got something to follow up with, I'll follow up. >> When asked about the check, the man claims it's a grant loan from Texas. But as he stumbles through his explanation, it's clear he's not telling the truth >> right now. This is what you're telling me though, right? >> I'm telling you the truth. >> I just want to verify what you're telling me right now. >> The guy the it's a black guy that sits right here, bro. He I go to him all the time, bro. I never had no problem with nothing. You know what I'm saying? >> If it if you're good. >> I'm saying if it was a problem, she should have told me. But she told me I had a verification problem. >> Yeah. That's why >> a verification with the check. That was >> No, she did not tell me that. Like >> Yeah. Yeah. I'm telling you, it wasn't a verification with your debit card. It was a verification with the check. >> Why didn't she tell me that? >> Maybe they didn't want you to take off or something, man. I >> I could have just left. She gave me my ID. I walked right past you. I walked right back. >> How many How many deposits have you done within the last week into this account >> to this account? This is going to be like in this week. It's going to be my first deposit. >> First deposit. >> First deposit. I haven't touched the account in a while. I rarely touch my my Navy Federal account. >> Okay. >> I really took >> So there's deposits into this account. I review video. They're not going to be you. >> Videos of deposits >> of deposits. Yeah. Coming in and depositing checks. When I review those videos, are they going to be you from >> this weekend? >> This week? Let's just say last two weeks. >> No, nothing. Go ahead. Yeah. >> Well, this is just the only check, right? This the one check, >> bro. Bro, you can go. I have nothing to lie, bro. I work for Universal, bro. I have my my life on the line, bro. I'm not going to lie to you about no check. >> Well, that's why I'm going to go clarify what the deal is with the check. >> Please do that. And you will see that you might have not been >> and I'm going to see what's going on. And you were depositing the check into your account, right? >> Yes. >> Okay. Let me go verify that. All right. >> Thank you, bro. I don't cuz I don't >> Right. Now, [clears throat] I'm not saying you ain't going to jail, right? I'm saying you're just being detained. There's a lot of questions that need cuz I I have not done nothing wrong. You get what I'm saying? And I don't see I don't see if she told me if she said it was a problem with that, bro. I could have we could have situ situated that right then and there. You you had a manager come look at the check this and that, but lie to me and tell me we can't verify you because of your debit card. So if you can't verify me because of the two points of ID, okay, let me call Navy Federal and figure out what's the red flag. >> When I just called, that's when you put me hand. The suspect tells the officers they're free to search his things, but what they really want is to hear more about who he is and how this check came to be. >> They told me the red flag was because I came in and I had two debit cards and it did not work. >> Okay. >> If if you need a different verification, I have another ID and this is another ID right here. This is two verifications. >> All right. What you do for Universal? >> I'm a prop I'm property manager. >> Okay. Property manager of what like what are you property manager of? Basically like say like we get around like for the meetings they'll get us they'll give us the proper what they want to do if it wants to clean paint maintenance takes I'm the one that tells hey this crew y'all go do clean up this crew y do the maintenance on this or this little crew right here y'all go pay it >> okay cool all right let me see what's up with the documents in the check >> do bro you got ID it's in the car >> I thought it was in your wallet >> no my ID is in my car >> okay >> you can ask your question am I going to You're going to have to ask that to the the detective. >> So he's detective right now. >> Yes, sir. >> Yeah, bro. Just let me know so I can just call my people. Bro, >> I I deal with I deal with a lawyer with this. >> This is some racial profiling, bro. >> This is definitely some racial profiling. >> Like, how how y'all know if I didn't get scammed? Like, >> question. So, on this check, it says teacher retirement system of Texas. What what would you all disperse checks for? Is it for retirement accounts or >> retirement accounts? Um um if they were a teacher and they were getting a refund from their account or the 401 plan um even if they're like a beneficiary for a member as well, we would distribute out fun like that. >> Well, I I asked cuz he's telling me it's a grant check from schooling. Would you all disperse a check for that? >> A grant check? Um, no, we don't do grant. >> Yeah, he's telling me it's a grant check, but >> So, this is just like a retirement account and beneficiaries of that account. This isn't grant or no financial aid or anything like that. Correct. >> No, it's not financial aid or anything. It's just a 401k pension plan. >> Okay. >> Um, state government pension plan. Yes. >> Gotcha. >> According to the representative, their office only processes retirement related payments, typically for former teachers or their beneficiaries. They confirmed they don't issue grant checks or educational aid. And when given the check number and the exact amount of $23,185.92, there's no trace of it in their records. >> Um, and then if I give you a check number, is there any way you can look that up? >> Okay. And what is it in the amount of >> It's for $23,185.92. Okay, it says $23,183.92. >> $23,185.92. >> Okay, sorry about that. >> No, no worries. >> Let me go ahead and check this um to see if I can find anything. Do you mind if I just place you on a brief hold? >> No, no worries. >> Thank you so much for holding. So, um I did not find anything with that information. >> Okay. So, therefore, this check is is fraudulent then. Correct. It's fair to say. >> Um I I mean I I I don't want to give out official or anything like that. >> Yeah. Yeah, I get it. I mean >> on that maybe probably it's it's probably not legit if you don't have the warrant number and you don't have that check amount. >> It's probably not a real check, right? >> Yeah. Like I said, he's claiming it's a check from a grant, which we know it's not. It's from, you know, it's a 401 type account. It's a retirement account, not a grant account. >> Uh, okay. And then the warrant number doesn't come back in your system, which if you all sent out a check, you would at least have documentation of that and or at least the person's social, which you have neither of those. Correct. >> Correct. >> All right. Well, I appreciate it. I will follow up and get some official records from you all at a later time. Um, thank you very much for your help. Perfect. After stepping away for a few minutes, the officers returned to the room, ready [music] to give the suspect another chance to come clean. >> 99, please. >> All right. Ready to be truthful about the >> 33139. I know what's going on. You going to see me judge and take me to jail, bro. >> Okay. And it was a grant check. Were you in school?

You told me the check is from a grant money from school. That check is from a 401 account for retirement. >> No reason why anybody would be sending you that check. Correct. >> So I don't Listen, I'm just telling you what I know. >> Okay. >> I didn't that's not no check that I made. This is not No, I'm not >> I'm not saying you made it. I know I have not did nothing wrong. >> I think the person who made it gave it to you to cash it for them and you were going to get some money. >> Cash it for who? get some money, bro.

By the end of the encounter, the suspect had a long list of charges, including defrauding a financial institution, uttering a forged check, possessing a counterfeit payment instrument, and grand theft. Number one, scammer thought fake confidence would fool officers. On April 20th, 2024, officers in West Palm Beach, Florida, responded to a call from an anonymous tipster who claimed a man was impersonating a security guard at a local shopping complex. Here's what happened when the police arrived. >> Okay, listen. Okay, I've explained this to you now numerous times.

It's >> for my protection. >> You gave me now three fake names. >> No, I have not. >> Yes, sir. You told me that it was your twin. >> Okay. So, hold on. Right now, you're going to be detained. Okay.

I never met you. I never used to me all the time at 1229. >> I never been on 1229 North Dixie. Nothing. I used to go to Burger King Street. >> I've been across at 129 North Dixie.

Because listen, >> I went I went across to the bank with two deposits. >> There's nothing about harassing. >> I know. Hey, hold on. Can Can you stop >> over here? You're staying over here. You're a little too >> He's tested their patience long enough. Now, with his refusal to cooperate, the officers are done playing nice. >> Listen, can you stop yanking me? You need to shut up right now and listen to his line of questioning. If I have to pull you 5T in this direction, that's what I'll do. Turn. I'm not yanking you. It's all on camera. >> He was yanking you. >> NO, I'M NOT. You're detained and I'm pulling you this way. Now, listen. Shut up and listen. >> Sir, listen. I have. Okay. I know. I know who you are. I have not. >> I know. Okay. This is my >> You might not remember you. >> Okay. You might not remember, but I can promise you I know who you are, which we've confirmed that now with the Hawaiian Spanish food. Okay. So, this is what's going to happen. Okay. Um, I'm going to run your name. I'm pretty 100% sure you're convicted. Okay. I think you know you're convicted because you've been charged with firearm with felon and possession of a firearm. Okay.

Okay, so with that being said, with that being said, as of right now, you are being detained. I am going to ensure that you are not a felon. You cannot provide me any kind of G license with me.
