A representative from First Interstate Bank in Bremerton, Washington contacted the FBI Seattle Office to report suspicious banking activity by a customer who had made multiple cash deposits in the last month, with unusual check-writing activity compared to previous average balance.

The customer had previously served time for an unspecified offense. Descriptive information provided about the suspect: a Caucasian male residing in Silverdale, Washington.
