An alleged con man pocketed more than $35,000 after being issued someone else’s bank card at a local bank last December. Now Langley RCMP are trying to find him.
On Dec. 30, 2015, a man entered the Langley Bank of Montreal claiming to be the owner of a certain bank account. He told the teller he was visiting the area from Ontario, said police.
He was issued a new debit card and immediately withdrew $5,000 US dollars. The card was subsequently used at a number of different establishments and more than $30,000 was taken from the account, said police. Langley RCMP are hoping someone can identify this man, or have information about him that could lead to his arrest. Call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200 or if you wish to remain anonymous call Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
