| Military Fake Very Busted (w/full body mugshot) Trying To Cash $40k Check |
| 2008-11-21 |
| Police arrested an 18-year-old man who was posing as a U.S. Army sergeant while attempting to cash a check for $40,000 at a bank on South Main Street Thursday afternoon. Orlando Ramos-Cabrera, of Hartford, was wearing a uniform he bought online, police said. He had also just purchased a 2008 Dodge Charger from a dealership in East Hartford with a phony check. He is charged with first-degree larceny and illegal use of a uniform. Police were dispatched at 4:06 p.m. to TD Bank North on a report of fraud in progress. Ramos-Cabrera was there in full uniform with "Special Forces" and "Cavalry" patches. He identified himself as a sergeant in the U.S. Army. But police officers who are military veterans quickly recognized Ramos-Cabrera was a fake, police said. The Dodge, parked in front of the bank, was seized as evidence. |

| #3 perhaps, in this case, it was like Special Olympics? |

| #2 He also looks a bit out of shape to be claiming Special Forces. |

| #1 He is easy to spot as a fake. The US Flag patch is upside down and the sleeve patches on his left shoulder are way too far down. Weinerhead. |
