Suffolk County Crime Stoppers and the Riverhead Town Police Department are asking for the public’s help to identify and locate a man they say scammed a customer at a Riverhead store in May.
The man allegedly pretended to be an employee at Walmart, located at 1890 Old Country Road, and scammed a customer out of $900 on May 23 at approximately 11:55 a.m., according to a Suffolk County Police Department Crime Stoppers alert.
Police released surveillance images of the suspect.
Anyone with information is asked to submit an anonymous tip to Suffolk County Crime Stoppers by calling 1-800-220-TIPS, using the P3 Tips mobile app, or visiting www.P3Tips.com. All calls, texts and emails will be kept confidential, police said.
Suffolk County Crime Stoppers offers a cash reward for information that leads to an arrest.
