Our depositor also attempted to deposit in our Night Drop eleven PMO in the amount of $1,000.00 each. Our Br. Mgr. had a gut feeling that they needed to be checked out and went to the local P.O. and verified that they were in fact counterfeit. The customer has been apprehended and booked with 11 ct. of bank fraud. The local police informed us that she had previously attempted another fraud a month ago at a S&L but failed. These are linked to nigerian scams involving emails, phone calls, promises of big money. The PMOs were addressed from a person in Chicago, IL. IT TOOK THE LOCAL P.O. OVER 30 MINS. TO DETERMINE THE ITEMS WERE A FRAUD. THEY HAVE TO MAKE A PHONE CALL TO FIND OUT. THE LOCAL P.O. TOLD THE CUSOTMER THAT "THEY LOOKED OK". THE CUSTOMER WANTED TO INTIALLY CASH THE PMO. SHE WAS TO GET $1,000.00 AND WIRE THE REST OF THE MONEY TO A "FRIEND".
