The Federal Bureau of Investigation has released today, Saturday, 10 photos of individuals wanted by the FBI for questioning in connection with the recent electronic thefts from First Hawaiian Bank accounts held by Saipan residents.
FBI special agent Tom Simon said the FBI believes that the individuals in the photographs may have recently resided on Saipan and may still be on island.
“Anyone with information to provide should leave a message at the Saipan office of the FBI at 670-322-6934 or call local police,” Simon said.
He said learning the identities and whereabouts of the men in the photos would be a major break in this case.
“Hopefully someone calls in the tip we need to solve this one,” said Simon who is also FBI Honolulu’s spokesman.
The photos released by the FBI showed four to five individuals who used FHB automated teller machines at the Oleai branch last March 6 and 29.
FHB earlier stated that card skimming through their ATMs was believed to be the cause of the unauthorized transactions made in various FHB accounts.
