Five Arrested In Check Fraud Scheme

(Providence, RI)  --  Five people are facing charges in connection with a check fraud scheme and two more are at large.  The investigation started after a retired Providence firefighter told police he thought his check number had been copied.  Authorities say 30-year old Shantel Meza worked at Citizens Bank in North Smithfield and would take customers' information and pass it along to others involved.  Customers are being told to check their bank statements for any suspicious activity.
