A financial crimes investigator at the $1.5 billion TruMark Financial Credit Union helped Philadelphia police arrest a 21-year-old man who was running a phony check scheme.
The Trevose, Pa.-based credit union lost $8,000 because of the fraud, but work by TruMark Financial Crimes Investigator Linda Volz prevented the theft of an additional $22,000.

About 14 TruMark Financial accounts were affected by the fraud.
