WESTMORELAND COUNTY, PA — A Cincinnati woman, identified as Jennifer Folzenlogen, 62, has been arrested and jailed after attempting to cash a stolen check using a fraudulent Pennsylvania driver’s license at a local bank.
According to Pennsylvania State Police, the incident is part of a larger multi-state fraud operation. Investigators say Folzenlogen is linked to an organized crime group based in New York that specializes in mail fraud, identity theft, and illegally withdrawing money from victims’ bank accounts across Indiana, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.
When apprehended, Folzenlogen had multiple active felony warrants for fraud-related crimes out of Indiana and a full extradition warrant listed in NCIC.
She now faces several charges, including:
Forgery
Theft
Identity Theft
Folzenlogen was arraigned and remanded to Westmoreland County Jail on a $100,000 bond.
Law enforcement urges banks and residents to be cautious and report any suspicious financial activity, as investigations into this broader criminal network are ongoing.
