A woman who tried to cash a fake $50,000 check thought she had pulled off the perfect scam — until everything fell apart in seconds.
According to bank employees, the woman walked in confidently, handing over the forged check and acting like she was entitled to the money. But something didn’t add up. The account information was suspicious, and the check had subtle inconsistencies.
What she didn’t know? The bank had already been alerted to similar scams — and the manager quietly contacted police while “processing” her request.
By the time she realized something was wrong, it was too late. Officers were already waiting at the front door.
She was arrested on the spot and now faces multiple felony charges, including fraud, forgery, and attempted theft.
Her plan to walk away with $50K? Turned into a walk straight into jail.
