Man Caught Cashing Bad Check After Two Prior Visits to Bank With Bad Checks: Cops

A Markham man’s luck ran out when he tried pulling a bad check scam for a third time at the same bank, police said.

An officer was sent to the TCF Bank on East Lincoln Highway shortly before 2 p.m. Tuesday to look into a report of a man trying to cash a fraudulent check.

The cops identified the phony paper passer as 25-year Roy Holmes of Markham and learned he had deposited bad checks at the same bank twice before, police said.

“The officers located Holmes and discovered that he was in possession of checks that were fraudulent (and) a debit card in another person’s name,” police said.

Holmes was taken to the Will County jail. His bond was set at $150,000.
