NC Police Department is Looking for a Bank Scammer

Roanoke Rapids Police Department is actively looking for the woman seen in the photo above after she left a fake ID at a bank in Roanoke Rapids, NC.

She walked into the bank around noon on Feb. 7 at a location on East 10th Street in Roanoke Rapids.

She attempted to withdraw $4,000 from a bank account that was not hers.

The bank teller became suspicious and had another teller contact the real account owner. The account owner said that "no one should be removing funds from their account."

As the teller was checking on the bank account, the woman quickly left the bank branch, leaving her fake ID behind. Bank employees said that the picture on the Identification card was accurate, while the other information was not. 

If you have information on this woman, please contact Halifax County Crime Stoppers at 252-583-4444.
