Resident Reports Forgery Instances

   Reports filed through the Lawrence County Sheriff’s Department indicate that an area resident has become the target of forgers.

   The female victim reported Wednesday that she had received notification from her bank regarding two checks that had been cashed against a closed account in her name.

   Reports show that the checks, totaling some $253.57, had been cashed at a Lawrenceburg Quik Mart store. They bore the victim’s name, and were written against an account she had closed through the Lawrence County branch of Green Bank.

   The victim reported to deputies that the checks may have been stolen recently when she moved from one residence to another.

   At the current time detectives with the department’s Criminal Investigation Division are continuing to delve into the matter.
