Fayetteville Police are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying a suspect in a forgery/fraud scheme.

Det. Mike Whitlow said on Aug. 16 at approximately 1:50 p.m. a white male approximately 45-50 years of age and wearing a suit and tie entered the Fayetteville branch of Sun Trust bank where he presented a withdrawal slip requesting $4,700 from a Sun Trust account.

Whitlow said the male had a Florida driver’s license that matched the information on the account and successfully obtained the money.

The account, said Whitlow, actually belongs to a law enforcement officer in Florida. The male has accessed the same victim’s account at other branches and is also a suspect in several other metro Atlanta fraud cases, Whitlow said.

Anyone with information regarding this subject is asked to contact Detective Mike Whitlow with the Fayetteville Police Department at 770-461-4441.
