According to a police report, Jacoway-Minor first visited a bank branch with a man who used a driver’s license and an energy bill to falsely claim that he is the holder of someone else’s bank account.
He then requested to add Jacoway-Minor to the account, claiming that she was his niece.
Once she had access to the account, police say Jacoway-Minor tried to withdraw money, but a suspicious teller refused to release the funds.
She then went to three different bank branches where she successfully withdrew cash, allegedly managing to get over $23,000 before Truist closed the compromised account.
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department arrested and charged Jacoway-Minor for attempting to obtain property by false pretenses.
