Police Seek Public’s Help Identifying Fraud Suspect

**Columbus, OH** – The Columbus Division of Police is requesting assistance from the public in identifying an individual involved in fraud incidents.

On October 9, a victim was misled by a computer message that urged her to contact a fake Microsoft support number. Believing she had contacted Microsoft, the victim was falsely informed that her checking account was being targeted by hackers. She was instructed to withdraw funds to protect her account, which the suspect then collected from her home. Following a second successful scam attempt, the suspect obtained additional money directly from the victim’s residence. The police emphasize that the perpetrator is not affiliated with Microsoft.

The Columbus Police encourage anyone with information regarding this incident to reach out to Detective McCotter at 614-724-4629 or via email at BMcCotter@columbuspolice.org. Information can also be submitted anonymously to Central Ohio Crime Stoppers at 614-461-TIPS (4877).
