CRIME:  IDENTITY FRAUD

DATE:    June 21, 2016

RCMP FILE:  2016-34314

A local bank called a woman to verify a bank application when some of the information didn’t appear legitimate.  A woman had entered the bank on June 17th and attempted to open up a bank account using a driver’s license, but there were discrepancies in some of the personal information provided.  When the actual owner of the license was contacted it was discovered that her wallet and ID had been lost the previous year.   Kelowna RCMP would like to question this person of interest in the file.
