Palm Coast Man Busted on Fraud Charges
April 1, 2010
Total Loss:
$800
A 40-year-old Palm Coast man was arrested Wednesday after he attempted to open a bank account with a fraudulent check and Flagler County Sheriff's detectives think this isn't his first time.
Daniel Orr, of Laguna Court, is charged with two counts of grand theft and two counts of organized fraud to scheme. He was being held in the Flagler County Inmate Facility Wednesday evening on $45,000 bond.
Detectives said he went into the Space Coast Credit Union in Palm Coast and attempted to open an account with a $63,000 check from Wells Fargo Bank. Credit union officials put a hold on the account, and the check never cleared. It was returned by Wells Fargo Bank because the account number was not valid.
