University police are investigating an incident of fraud at PNC Bank on Liacouras Walk, said Deputy Director of Campus Safety services Charlie Leone.

On April 22, a Temple student attempted to help an unknown male cash a check for $100. The student gave the male $100 cash, and then attempted to deposit the check in to his account. The student was informed this week by PNC that the check was fraudulent and notified authorities.

The incident is not the first of its kind- Leone said that a similar incident occurred with another student within the last few weeks. “It sounds like the same guy,” he said. “I’m pretty confident that we will have an arrest on this.”

Leone said that police are working with PNC to indentify the suspect, and said they are looking for a white or Latino male, 6 feet tall, medium build and scruffy facial hair. He cautioned any student that is approached by someone asking for help cashing a check to contact police immediately.
