Bank fraud runs in the family

Three people, including a mother and daughter, are awaiting federal sentencing hearings in a conspiracy to commit bank fraud case that has involved a loss of more than $100,000, Wichita Falls police announced. Maceyra and Notter did their research, finding women with appearances similar to their own and stealing their purses, credit cards, checks and identification. The women then used the identifying information to make fraudulent credit card purchases and pass fraudulent checks. They took their purchases to others, including Reed, who sold the items to other people at half price, and then the three divided the proceeds they made among themselves.
