Another white man. Man, I hate white
people. Stand up. Stand up. Stand up.
What did I do? James placed under
arrest. Okay. For fraudulently using his
card to try and purge the room. Is that
Is that what you say every time you do
something wrong and call people racist?
On July 21st, 2023, officers responded
to a fraud complaint at the Best
Western. The victim reported his cash
app card had been fraudulently charged
$37 the previous night. Hotel staff
reviewed surveillance footage and
identified the suspect who attempted to
use the card.
All right, tell them what's going on.
So, I lost my wallet 2 days ago at
McDonald's and
then Well, she took my ID, debit card,
cashback card, my my bank information,
information, check, all of that. And
this morning when I woke up, I got a
cash out notification saying $37 was
spent here. Okay. I came here, told them
about it, and they said they had
problems or last night. Uhhuh. And I
guess she was the one that didn't use my
car at the end of the day. Kind of
trying to get all my stuff back. I gota
So you lost it at at McDonald's two days
ago. Two days ago. Someone Did you
report it when you lost it?
Well, I uh I turned my card off and some
dude on Facebook text me the next
morning saying that he found my wallet.
Okay. So, I I got off work. He brought
it to me at Walmart and when I got it, I
had everything missing out of it except
for my social. Everything was in there.
Everything was gone except for my social
was in there, but everything else. Okay.
So, when you lost it 2 days ago, you
never reported it with the sheriff's
office. No, I didn't report it. Okay. So
then yesterday some guy messaged you and
said that he brought it to you at
Walmart. Okay. And then you got it and
only your
social card. Okay. So what all was
missing? My debit card, my debit card,
my cash app card used last night and
then my ID and then a couple of other
cards that came in there. The main
things was ID, debit, and cash.
Okay. I don't know. She's probably
taking a picture of my
Okay. So, what makes you believe that
she was the one that got your cards and
used it? You can talk to me about
that. Last time we had some sketchy girl
come in.
She gave us two different credit cards.
One is his that is swiped into my
computer system. Um, it said it declined
on my end. Uh, so they didn't check her
in, but she stole a key out of my key
return box and ended up staying in
there. She also stole three of my cups,
which I didn't get back postcards. I
have all this on camera. Okay. So, you
don't know her. You just got her name
from
I know that it was here cuz I got
notifications from my cash app and it
tells me it was spent like this place.
Okay. And it was
3079 1150 last night. Okay. That's the
only reason I knew to come up here. And
did you contact Cash App and Yeah, I
contact Cash App. She said that they
said it's pending. So I should get that
$37 back. Okay. So you're not actually
going to lose any money? No. As long as
they give you that back. Give that back.
Okay. But I already shut down my account
and I already
# really nice if I can I don't know if
you guys will be able to get any of this
back from her get my ID back. I'm in the
kitchen if you need me. Okay, thank you.
But she has my ID. Well, what makes you
think she has Yeah, but she has my card.
Okay, so you just assume that she's got
the rest of your cards, too. Okay. Okay,
I got you.
All right.
So, the only way to find out is by
finding her. I don't know where she's at
right this right this moment. Um, so
what we'll do is
Did you cancel all those cards? Yeah, I
can uh I have a new cash app card coming
through.
Okay. So, other than other than your ID
ID. So, ID, cash app, your bank, debit
card, and that should be it. Or is there
more?
Yeah. Okay. So, I'll give you a card
with my uh with a case number on it. So,
that you can bring that to the DMV and
tell them that, hey, I lost my wallet.
You know, I believe it was stolen.
Here's the case number. And they'll they
should get you a new ID or driver's
license, whatever it is.
Um,
terrible. The debit
card. I don't know if I'm going to be
able to get that. I mean, you already
have another one coming in the mail,
right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Those I don't
know if I'm going to be able to get back
for you. Also, yeah, that's gone. So,
also because
she or if you get that reimbursement
back, technically you're not out of any
money, right? Yeah. So, well, I still
may be able to I got to talk with them
and figure out, but she probably I mean,
obviously she used your card without
your knowledge and attempted to purchase
the room. So, she's definitely going to
get something. So, not entirely sure
yet. Let me um let me get you a car real
quick so I you can get out of here and
do what you got to do. So, just give me
one sec. Okay.
And would you uh would you be willing to
fill out just a quick statement, just a
written statement of kind of what you
told me verbally? Yeah. Like about the
situation? Yeah. Exactly what you told
me verbally. Just write it down on a
piece of paper. That's it. Okay. What
does that do with me? So So what that
what that means is it's just a higher
level of credibility because it's a
sworn statement, right? So you told me a
person and now you're writing it down on
a piece of paper and you're swearing to
the facts that you stated to me. So it's
just a high level level of cred
credibility. So you know if we wind up
arresting her and she has to go to court
to say hey this dude swore to it that
you know she did all the stuff. It's
just a higher level of credibility.
Yeah. So 100% um you don't even know her
or anything like that. Okay. All right.
Just hang tight for a second. I'll be
right back.
Hi, man. So, here this is my card. Okay.
Case numbers on the back. So, you can
bring that to like the DMV and request a
new license.
Uh, also like I said, this is just a
sworn written statement. So, everything
that you told me Yeah. verbally.
Yeah. Just write it down. So, like you
said, you're at McDonald's 2 days ago.
You lost your wallet.
Um the next day somebody messaged you on
Facebook saying they found it, they
returned it to you and all the cards
that you told me were missing, right?
So your ID, your debit card, your Cash
App card, and then today you received a
notification from Cash App saying that
you were charged X amount of money. Um,
make sure you put the value at this
establishment.
And that's all you really need to put.
Okay. Okay. And then if if you can just
Yeah, I'll get
you. And then if you can just uh like I
said, just put the date, the time, um,
just put your name. Um, if you can put
an address. You don't got to worry about
all the height, weight, all that other
crap.
Just the basic stuff, data birth, stuff
like that. Thanks, man.
Hello. No, no. Okay.
Um, yeah, this this girl's been a pain
in our butt the last week or so. So,
she's supposed to pay in mine uh for the
last 24
hours. She called and cussed me out and
told me I'm like, you got to break. She
Yeah,
she's But anyway, um so what exactly
happened this?
She came in to check in, get a room,
whatever. Um talking to my night
auditor. She was over there. It was very
strange.
Um I guess she tried to run the card and
a card and it declined. Then she tried
to run his card and it declined. My
daughter didn't check the names and she
should have cuz we used that thing up
there. But then she has this box. So,
how do you know that um it was
his or her his card? How do you It's got
his name on it. It's got his name and
all his information on it. Okay. So,
this was sitting up here with room keys
in it. She then you can see it on
camera. Pulls in here and pulls one of
these out and it's like that. It's got
the room number on it and she goes in
the room. That's where we found her this
morning in the room. What room was it?
109. 109. Okay. Um,
I mean, I got them all on camera. Do you
want to pursue charges for theft of
services? Then technically, is she
supposed to pay for that? He wants to. I
don't know if he thinks it's worth it,
but I don't know. Okay. I can ask. Yeah.
If you don't mind finding out for me.
Um, if you want to do that, if not, cuz
I'm sure he is. Yeah.
be one of the two charges
behind. No.
Yeah, they're
here after this go and such. You guys
been busy out there today? Uh, yeah,
we've been a little
busy. We're going to get her car. Yeah.
Okay. All right.
[Music]
He said no because you're going to get
her to park. He doesn't want to have to
go to court. I don't blame him. I just
got to make sure I find out. But if you
need anything, I got to run camera.
Yeah. I'm going to I'm going to need all
that if you don't mind. Uh, so I'll need
uh I guess
I guess I can try and get you a uh flash
drive. I'm pretty sure I got one back
there. I just have to take it out. Okay,
thank you. Yeah, if you could just get
her, you know, the part where she's
giving or swiping his card, right? So
for when she's swiping his card and then
it So it got denied though. It says it
was denied on my end, but my credit card
processing system sucks and it does that
like once a day where it actually
approves. We have the money and it comes
out of their account, but it says it's
declined on this thing. Okay. Um, yeah,
if you could just get the part where she
attempted to utilize his card at this
and then if you can get me like maybe a
paper document saying that his card was
utilized at whatever time or whatever. I
mean, information. I appreciate it. Come
back tomorrow. I will have all of that
information for you on a flight. Sweet.
Um, I can come back. I can come back.
Yeah, I'll probably have it done by
2:00. So, 2:00. Okay. Yeah, I'll come
back and I'll pick it up whenever. And
it's no rush. Um, I know obviously you
guys are busy, so just whenever you can,
but I appreciate you guys. Thank you.
I lost my wall, man. That was the second
time I lost it this week. The first time
I lost it, I missed him. Some dude
brought it to me. So,
thankfully, I lost my wall probably 10
times. Damn, man. You got to be careful.
This is the first time I've
had
one. I don't know how you guys.
Wow, man. All right, man. Well, good
luck to you. Okay.
Now, if you uh you put your phone number
on here, so if I need you, I'll call you
for something. Um if you need to get in
contact with me, you got my card.
So, take me some cash app again. Well,
you closed the card already, right?
Well, it's not I can lock it cuz the
only way I have access to money right
now is if you use it is on my cash app.
So, I have like a new cash app card
coming. I can use my phone like on the
wallet, my Apple ID. My cash app's
already on it. So, I can lock my I think
the reason why that payment didn't go
through last night cuz my card was
locked. So, as long as it's locked, the
money won't go through. But they still
took it out. I just don't know how long
it's going to take. Well, she has the
card though, right? She has the card
itself, right? You got to use the pen.
Most of the [ __ ] you buy with a cash app
card, you have to have a pen. Yeah, but
that card, you canceled it, right? I
know. I cancelceled my debit card. If I
cancel my cash app that app, I won't
have any access to any of the money I
have right now. I have bills coming up.
You know what I mean?
I thought you said you ordered a new
cash app. Yeah, I do have a new cash app
card coming, but that cash app is still
open.
I'm scared to close it completely, then
I won't have any money that I can get
to. So, I transferred all my money that
was on my debit card onto my cash app
card cuz I had to close my debit card.
So, I transferred all that money onto my
cash app. Okay. Um, I got bills coming
up that I have to pay. You don't have
any other accounts that you can just my
debit and cash app. Debit's already
closed. Like I said, cat, I can lock my
car to where no one can spend it. I have
to unlock it myself to be able to use
the money out of it. Okay. Unless you're
saying I don't know. I don't want to
close my account though. I don't know
how I'm going to use my money. When do
you get your new card? 7 days, seven
business days. I just did it this
morning. Okay. So, whenever you get
that, then you can transfer the money
over to the new card. That card
completely transfer that to a new card.
Okay.
Um,
and there's no other way you can
transfer that money in your Cash App
card to any other bank or any other card
or anything?
[Music]
I don't have a phone, but I do have a
sex cash app. I got So, I do have a
second cash app that I can transfer that
money to. The only reason I say that is
because she can easily use it again, you
know. Well, not if you have it locked.
If you have it locked, she can't utilize
it. What? It was locked last night
though. That's the thing. And that took
out, but they said, "I'm going to get it
back though." They wouldn't let her go
through with it. Right. So, but you
called Cash App and you told them that
that purchase was fraudulent. Yeah.
Yeah. They know about Okay, cool. All
right.
Well, what I would recommend is that you
try and transfer that money into a
different account or a different card or
something. So, there's no way she can
use it. Um, if you can't for whatever
reason, then I would just keep it
locked. And if you have any
more purchases or her attempting to
utilize it, then call us and let us
know. Does that make sense? Yeah, that
makes sense. All right, bro. Good luck
to you. All right.
Hey, sir. Hello. Hey. How's it going?
Good. Hey, you remember me from the
other day? I do. Yes, sir. Is Jamie home
by any chance? Uh, you know what? I
haven't seen her since early today, but
she may be in her bedroom if you want me
to check. Yeah, if you don't mind, we
just need to talk to her real quick.
Sure. Thank you. Um, you guys want
anything to drink or anything? Oh, thank
you. But we're okay.
So, since you were here, I'll inform you
as to what I'm trying to get
accomplished. You're trying to be
patient with this ordeal. I don't know
what she's into now, but um, we're going
to talk we'll talk to her first and then
we'll let you guys know exactly what's
going on. I told my wife I was going to
give her 30 days to get into a program.
she doesn't get into a program, then I'm
going to go do what you recommended and
get the addiction done. If I can get her
to sign a piece of paper stating that
she no longer lives here and she'll take
her stuff, fine. Otherwise, I just want
to go do that. But whatever you're
doing, uh, it might preclude whatever I
was playing. I don't know what's going
on, but it might we'll talk about it
after. Okay, I got you.
And then sir, with all due respect to
you and your property, but um whenever
she comes out, do you mind if we just
talk to her alone real quick? Thank you
so much. Appreciate that. Matter of
fact, I'll just go up to my office.
Whatever is easier. We'll come, like I
said, we'll let you know um after we're
done talking with her what's going on.
We're waiting.
No, I didn't say they're leaving. I said
they're waiting on you.
And I hope you got clothes on. I have
more powers. Button yourself up, please.
Yeah, I am buttoned up. Please don't
Okay. Well, they want to talk to you
alone. I'm going out to show them all.
Yeah. And then arrest me and harass me.
All right. I'm ready to me on my porch
in front of the neighbors and cameras.
You ready to say hi? Why would you say
that? Because y'all harass me all the
time. Listen, I'm just talking to you. I
see another white man. Man, I hate my
people, man. Jamie, listen. So, what

You're arresting me for no good reason.
Um, you going to arrest me? Go ahead.
Have a seat in there, please. Can you
take these off? Absolutely not. Go have
a seat.
[Music]
Hey. Hey. So, we're going to come back
to get whatever she requests to bring
with her, but she is going to jail.
Okay. Uh the charge is fraudulent use of
another person's credit card, debit
card.
No, it's actually another another
individual. She, according to the
victim, he lost his card somewhere
around McDonald's a couple days ago. Um,
she says that she met him in this
parking lot in Wind at the Wind Dixie
parking lot. They've been talking. They
were dating for 3 days. Um, he doesn't
says he's never met her, doesn't know
who she is. Um, she attempted to use his
card last night to purchase a hotel room
and when it got denied while the lady
was trying to punch it in, she was
taking stuff off the counter. ended up
getting a lost room key that she used to
get into a room and stayed in there
overnight until they came and figured
out there was somebody in the room that
no one was supposed to be in the next
morning. Um, they're not pursuing
charges for burglary or mis uh um uh
deprivation of utilities, but what's the
charges for this this other guy? I he
has to look at the amount, but I I'm
pretty sure it was about $1,000. So,
it's most likely going to be felonious.
Okay. Um, I'm not sure if because the
success of her using it was obviously
not accomplished. If it bumps it down to
a misdemeanor, I don't know. I didn't
read the statute. I'm just assisting in
