Posted on April 2, 2021 by Editor Posted in Banking, Crime, OC Sheriff, Orange County Leave a comment

ALISO VIEJO, Ca. (April 2, 2021) – Sheriff’s Department investigators arrested a man suspected of a series of recent bank robberies across Southern California.

At approximately 2:40 p.m. on March 10, 2021 a male suspect committed a bank robbery in the 26000 block of Aliso Creek Road in the city of Aliso Viejo.

Upon investigation, it was determined the suspect was involved in a series of bank robberies in February 2021 and March 2021 in Orange, Los Angeles, Ventura and San Diego counties. The suspect targeted banks in grocery stores. He would pass his cell phone to the teller, which contained a note demanding money and indicating the suspect was armed.

Orange County Sheriff’s investigators wrote multiple search warrants and their work led to identification of the suspect. Kyle Marquise Adlam, 24, was arrested and booked into Orange County Jail on Wednesday, March 31, on suspicion of robbery.

Former Tustin bank branch sentenced after stealing over $1M from a customer with dementia

LOS ANGELES – A former Comerica bank branch manager was sentenced today to 41 months in federal prison for stealing more than $1 million from an elderly customer with dementia, and then using it for her own personal expenses, including gambling and buying luxury items.

Marie Fulle, 38, of Newport Beach, was sentenced via videoconference by United States District Judge Virginia A. Phillips, who also ordered her to pay $1,091,230 in restitution. Fulle pleaded guilty in September 2019 to an information charging her with two counts of bank fraud.

Fulle formerly was a branch manager of a Comerica bank in Tustin. From February 2013 to April 2014, she targeted a vulnerable customer – an elderly man with dementia – and cultivated an exclusive banking relationship with him. Fulle then opened various bank accounts with the victim and used them to create a confusing web in which she could hide unauthorized transfers, and forged withdrawals with cashier’s checks.

Between February 2013 and May 2013, Fulle embezzled approximately $43,400 over the course of six transactions. After Fulle lost an anticipated promotion at work in May 2013, she began embezzling larger amounts of the victim’s money, unilaterally changing the address for one of the victim’s accounts, which prevented the statements from being delivered to the victim and his bookkeeper. Fulle manipulated this account for her embezzlement and, after she changed the address, significant amounts of the victim’s money began flowing through it. Fulle also conducted much of the victim’s banking activities one-on-one in private, away from the view of other bank personnel or security cameras.

During the scheme, Fulle used the money she stole from the victim to pay for Tiffany jewelry, at least one Louis Vuitton bag, spa days for herself and her then-boyfriend, and trips to Las Vegas, where she gambled.

Comerica fired Fulle in April 2014 for embezzling money from her cash drawer. When Comerica subsequently discovered the fraud Fulle committed against the victim, it reimbursed the victim nearly $1.3 million for disputed transactions that Fulle processed, lost interest and attorneys’ fees. The total loss that Fulle caused to the victim was $1,057,230. The restitution amount includes the victim’s attorneys’ fees.

This matter was investigated by the FBI.

This case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Kimberly D. Jaimez of the Major Frauds Section.

Bank of America provides 146,000 face masks to underserved communities in Orange County

Posted on August 16, 2020 by Editor Posted in Banking, Charities, Disease, Orange County, Public Safety, Santa Ana Leave a comment

NEWPORT BEACH – In communities across the country, Bank of America has been working with local partners to provide resources to vulnerable and underserved communities hardest hit by the coronavirus. In Orange County, Bank of America is partnering with seven front-line nonprofits to distribute personal protective equipment (PPE), specifically 146,000 masks.

This donation is part of a nationwide effort by Bank of America to immediately distribute nearly four million masks to communities disproportionally impacted by the coronavirus, including communities of color, and is connected to its $1 billion, four-year commitment of additional support to help local communities address economic and racial inequality accelerated by a global pandemic. This donation adds to the four million masks that the company donated earlier this year in cities across the country.

“The health and safety of our employees, clients and communities remain our top priority during this public health and humanitarian crisis,” said Allen Staff, Bank of America market president for Orange County. “In addition to providing more than $1.1 million in COVID-19-relief grants to Orange County nonprofits, another way we are helping communities slow the spread of the virus is by working with local partners to distribute masks to the most vulnerable populations, such as seniors, low-to-moderate income families, homeless individuals and communities of color disproportionately impacted, in addition to frontline workers, schools and health centers serving these communities.”

Below is how the 146,000 masks will be distributed across Orange County.

80,000 masks to Latino Health Access, which is working with the County to help assist eight neighborhoods hardest hit by COVID-19.
30,000 masks to Mercy House to distribute amongst the local homeless population.
16,000 masks to The Wooden Floor to provide to at-risk families in Santa Ana.
10,000 to the Orange County Rescue Mission for volunteers and the local homeless population.
6,000 masks to Camino Health Center to provide to its patients in high-risk communities.
2,000 masks to Meals on Wheels for their volunteers to prepare meals for home-bound seniors.
2,000 masks to Friendship Shelter, which is working with the County to place homeless coming out of COVID-19 quarantine into permanent housing.

“Latino Health Access is leading the COVID-19 response in the most impacted zip codes in Anaheim and Santa Ana, so we are grateful for the 80,000 masks donated to us by Bank of America. These masks will be distributed to neighbors impacted by COVID-19, their contacts and families as they isolate and quarantine, as well as to essential workers that do not have the option of working at home, and to those assisting in the COVID-19 response in these cities,” said America Bracho, Executive Director, Latino Health Access.

The SAPD is searching for a suspect who tried to rob a Wells Fargo bank

Posted on August 12, 2020 by Editor Posted in Banking, Crime, Santa Ana, SAPD Leave a comment

On March 23, 2020 at approximately 2:48 p.m., the wanted suspect entered the Wells Fargo located at 2301 S. Main Street, Santa Ana and attempted to commit a robbery.

The suspect is a white male, approximately 45-55 years old, 5’11’ in height, with a thin build and a light complexion. He was wearing a black baseball cap emblazoned with a letter “P” during the attempted robbery as well as black framed sunglasses, a black long sleeve 1/4 zip up sweater, black pants and black shoes. There may be a tattoo on the right side of his face.

Free legal help for Santa Ana homeowners Struggling with PACE loans

Posted on August 7, 2020 by Editor Posted in Banking, Lawyers, Real Estate, Santa Ana, Taxes Leave a comment

The Public Law Center (PLC) has seen a number of homeowners struggling to pay their property taxes after agreeing to “energy efficient upgrades” that homeowners believed were free upgrades through government programs.

In reality, contractors soliciting these upgrades misled homeowners and did not explain that the upgrades would be paid through their property taxes through the Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) program. The average yearly increase in property taxes is almost $5,000.00.

Most homeowners are on fixed incomes so an additional $5,000.00 a year often means a property tax lien and, in some cases, foreclosure.

PLC can assist homeowners with PACE loans for free. For contact information and information on other legal service providers in Southern California click here to view flyer.

Irvine YouTube twin pranksters arrested after two fake bank robberies

Posted on August 5, 2020 by Editor Posted in Banking, Crime, Irvine, OCDA, Santa Ana Leave a comment

SANTA ANA, Calif. – Twin brothers who star in YouTube videos featuring pranks on unsuspecting people have been charged with false imprisonment and swatting in connection with a pair of fake bank robberies in Irvine that resulted in their Uber driver being held at gunpoint by police. The Uber driver was not involved in the prank.

Alan and Alex Stokes, 23 of Irvine, have been each charged with one felony count of false imprisonment effected by violence, menace, fraud, or deceit and one misdemeanor count of falsely reporting an emergency in connection with the October 15, 2019 pranks.

They each face a maximum sentence of four years in state prison if convicted on all counts.

On October 15, 2019, at about 2:30 p.m., the Stokes brothers are accused of being dressed all in black, wearing ski masks, and carrying duffle bags full of cash as they pretended they had just robbed a bank while their videographer filmed this.

They ordered an Uber and when they got in the vehicle the Uber driver, who was unaware of the prank, refused to drive them. A bystander witnessed this, believing the two men had just robbed a bank and were attempting to carjack the Uber driver.

Irvine police arrived and ordered the Uber driver out at gunpoint. He was released after police determined he was not involved.

Police issued a warning to the Stokes brothers about the dangerous of their conduct and let them go.

Four hours later the Stokes brothers performed the same kind of prank on the campus of the University of California, Irvine. Police again received emergency calls regarding a bank being robbed.

“These were not pranks,” said Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer. “These are crimes that could have resulted in someone getting seriously injured or even killed. Law enforcement officers are sworn to protect the public and when someone calls 911 to report an active bank robbery they are going to respond to protect lives. Instead, what they found was some kind of twisted attempt to gain more popularity on the internet by unnecessarily putting members of the public and police officers in danger.”

Deputy District Attorney Laila Nikaien of Special Prosecutions is prosecuting this case.

A Santa Ana man armed with an axe tried to rob a bank in La Mirada

Posted on May 23, 2020 by Editor Posted in Banking, Crime, Santa Ana Leave a comment

Francisco Javier Cano, a 44-year-old Santa Ana man, walked into a La Mirada bank on Friday, but he was not there to make a deposit.

Cano gave a note to the bank teller, informing her that he was going to rob the bank, according to the O.C. Register.

There was a catch though to Cano’s request. He wanted fake money.

The teller ended up going to the bank of the bank and then initiating a silent alarm. She told the other employees to stay where they were.

A few seconds later Cano walked out of the bank, which was a Chase branch located at 15128 East Rosecrans Avenue. Several Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies were waiting for Cano.

Cano immediately surrendered and he was booked on suspicion of robbery.

The deputies found an axe in Cano’s waistband as well as another note, which demanded “real money.”

The Sheriff’s investigators have not yet established a motive for the bizarre robbery attempt.

It turns out that Cano has been booked at least 11 times since July 2018.
