I responded to this location in reference to financial transaction card fraud.

Upon arrival, I spoke to the victim who stated that she was advised of several fraudulent charges on her Citibank credit card. The victim stated that she also found that her Citibank credit card had been taken from her wallet. I did not have a copy of the financial crimes checklist and advised the victim that I would have to return with it but she advised that she would pick up a copy from the sheriff’s office when she went there later today.

The victim did not have a list of all of the fraudulent charges at this time because she stated that Citibank advised her she would need to make a report and provide a case number in order to get that information.
