Narrative

On October 21, 2024, at approximately 2:00 PM, I, Officer Rachel Thompson, met with Robert Evans at the Central Police Station regarding a report of identity theft. Evans stated that on October 20, 2024, he discovered multiple unauthorized charges on his credit card and bank account after receiving an alert from his bank about suspicious activity.

Evans checked his accounts and found several transactions, including a $1,200 purchase from an electronics store and $500 withdrawn from his savings account. He confirmed that he did not authorize these transactions and has not lost possession of his credit card or identification documents.

Evans contacted his bank and credit card companies immediately to freeze his accounts. He was also informed that a credit card was opened in his name with a different bank, which he had no knowledge of. Evans suspects his personal information may have been compromised online in the past few weeks but is unsure how it was obtained.

Evans was provided with a copy of the report and advised to monitor his accounts and consider placing a fraud alert or credit freeze with the major credit bureaus. No physical evidence was available at the time of the report, but the case will be forwarded to the department’s fraud division for further investigation.
