Santa Monica police are hoping the public can help identify a female who has cashed forged checks that exceed $30,000.
Between February and May of this year, the woman (pictured right) has been seen entering several financial institutions, where she then produces a counterfeit check with the forged signature of the victim to be cashed. It is estimated that the loss to the victims involved exceed $30,000.
The suspect is described as a female black, 25-30 years old, thin build, long straight dark hair, dark eyes.
