Gilsela Rosalin Crichlow is under arrest in Central Bucks County after police said she allegedly forged checks from a woman who resides in Central Bucks County. The ordeal happened in last October, when the victim realized she was not getting any incoming telephone calls on her cell phone. This caused concern to the victim who decided to reconcile her bank statements. She found they did not add up.
In fact, police said, five fraudulent checks totally $16,900 were written out. According to court documents, money was transferred from the victims saving to her checking account so the checks would be cleared. Crichlow has possession of two of the checks were were cashed at a Hleah Florida TD Bank.
Three other checks were fraudulently written to another male who police said will be charged separately. During this time the victim was not able to get incoming calls on her phone. So when the bank tried to call, that number was apparently redirected to a different number, who someone impersonated the victim and authorized the check.
Police checked the security video of the TD bank in Florida and also managed to pull Crichlow’s information, which included a Florida Identification card. Police said the photos matched. Police even matched the tattoos on both photos.
Crichlow was arrested in Florida and brought back to Bucks County to face charges of forgery, Identity Theft and related offenses.
