Woman with fake Florida ID tries to cash large counterfeit check: Police

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Police are looking for the woman they said tried to cash a large counterfeit check at the Trustmark Bank on South Highland last week.

Investigators haven’t said the amount on the phony check but said the woman is facing charges of attempted theft of property from $2,500 to $10,000.


Police released photographs of the woman who is seen sitting on a chair inside the bank.

The woman was wearing a black shirt and dark-colored pants and carrying a light-colored purse.

She is also wanted for identity theft and counterfeiting/forgery.
