The woman bought the black colored size 20 bathing suit February
11th just before 8 p.m. at the Sandal Factory in Marathon. She said she was
buying it for her mother. She paid for the bathing suit with a $100 bill. The
clerk said she looked closely at the bill and used a counterfeit detector pen
on it. She said it looked well used – or as she put it “washed a hundred times”.
But the pen did not indicate it was fake so she took the bill.
The bank called on Tuesday to say the bill was a fake. The
store pulled surveillance photos of the woman making the transaction. The clerk
said the woman is a black female in her 20s with a slim build. At the time she
was wearing black pants and a black tank top. She was the passenger in a silver
Dodge Charger with a Florida Handicap sign hanging in the front window. Deputy
Ponce would like help in identifying her so she can interview her in connection
with this case.
