Operating a confidence game, a man using the names Arnold Plotz and Paul Heinz has defrauded sev- eral banks in Wisconsin.
On one occasion his method of operation was to call a teller at the drive-in window of a local bank and state that he was calling from a manufacturing company that has an account at the bank. He asked the teller to make up a withdrawal of $8,225 in various denominations, explaining that the money was to be used for awards to company em- ployees. Later the suspect called the bank, gave the teller the name of the person who would pick up the envelope containing the money, and also stated that the person had left the company without the check. He gave the teller the company's account number and advised the teller to debit the account.
The subject later called the man- ufacturing company identifying himself as a bank employee and stated that samples of new deposit books should be picked up at the bank's drive-in window. A com- pany employee picked up the enve- lope at the bank and when the em- ployee returned, the subject called advising the company not to open the envelope because a mistake had been made. A cab driver, receiving instructions from the cab company dispatcher, went to the company, picked up the envelope and, follow- ing instructions, delivered it to a Will Call Company, where it was to be picked up by a Mr. Paul Heinz. The subject went to Will Call, iden- tified himself as Paul Heinz, and left the area.
