A 37-year-old Phelpston man was arrested at an Alcona bank after trying to make a large fraudulent transaction. South Simcoe Police Service officers were called to the bank on Innisfil Beach Rd. around 4:30 p.m., on Thursday, June 28, 2018. A teller became suspicious about a customer asking to make a large transfer of money to an account. The bank employee stalled for time, alerted a supervisor and police were called. Officers responded immediately and the suspect was arrested outside the bank.  The man’s identification was found to be fraudulent and he verbally misidentified himself to police. As a result, officers laid charges of Fraud Over $5,000, Personation With Intent and Obstruct Police. The accused was released with a future court date. This is a great example of how our community partners work with us to fight crime.  Reporting fraudulent transactions of any kind can help police make arrests or identify crime trends in order to alert the public.
