Police say man stole $61K from victim’s account at 4 banks

A man is accused of walking into four banks in metro Atlanta and stealing more than $60,000 out of a 58-year-old man’s account.

Atlanta police gave Channel 2 Action News surveillance photos of the suspect who allegedly went into four SunTrust Banks. The victim told police he doesn’t know the suspect or how he got his personal information.

Police told Channel 2 all four banks were hit within a week, and he stole around $61,000.

SunTrust sent the news station a statement that said, “We investigate all reported instances of suspicious activity, and make a determination on reimbursement on a case-by-case basis based on those findings.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact CrimeStoppers at 404-577-8477.
