VAN BUREN COUNTY, Mich. — Investigators are asking for help to find a woman who scammed an elderly person out of thousands of dollars.
The victim was tricked into believing she needed to pay a $16,000 bond for her son, according to the Van Buren County Sheriff's Office. The elderly woman even drove nearly an hour north to a U-Haul store in Byron Township to deliver the cash.
Surveillance cameras from the store captured the exchange. Detectives released stills from the footage, hoping you can help identify the suspect.
The woman who took the $16,000 drove off in a white Chevrolet Malibu.
