MEMPHIS, Tenn.-- A woman is accused of intercepting a check mailed by a North Carolina packaging company to a Memphis business and depositing it into her bank account. Police say Mya Green, 22, endorsed the $2,516.00 check and put it into a GoBank account in July. She is facing charges of theft of property and forgery. Mya Green(SCSO) Packrite LLC mailed the check to Specialty Adhesives Inc. in Memphis in late June and told police they had never met Green. Last week, another Memphis woman was charged with a similar crime. Roshell Perkins, 27, was accused of depositing $25,000 worth of forged checks from three different businesses into her First Horizon account and then transferring the fraudulent funds to a Cash App. MPD: Woman deposits $25k worth of forged checks into bank account Two of the businesses were from out of state. They said they had mailed the checks to vendors and had no idea how Perkins got her hands on them. Last year, the U.S. Postal Service advised customers not to put checks in the mail if possible due to a rise in check fraud. USPS said complaints of mail theft doubled in 2021, and banks report that check fraud jumped to 680,000 reports in 2022, up from 300,000 the year before. Green's bond was set at $1,000. She is scheduled to be arraigned on Friday.
