OCEAN CITY, Md. — The Ocean City Police Department is asking for public assistance after several cases of stolen and altered checks were reported in West Ocean City, in a post on their official Facebook page. The investigation began on November 7, 2025, after officers learned that suspects had been taking checks from residential mailboxes, altering the information, and attempting to cash the fraudulent checks at multiple banks across Worcester County. According to the department, a female suspect connected to the case has used a fraudulent Georgia driver’s license under the name Kimberly Williams. She was last seen on November 7 at approximately 10:15 a.m. in a silver SUV with an unknown Maryland license plate number. Investigators are working to identify the woman and determine whether additional individuals may be involved. Police issued guidance to help prevent further thefts, noting that residents are encouraged to place outgoing mail inside secure post office drop boxes or hand it directly to a postal carrier. The department also advised monitoring daily mail delivery, promptly removing incoming mail, and using electronic bill payment options when possible to reduce the risk of check theft. Anyone who recognizes the suspect or has information regarding the investigation or related thefts is asked to contact PFC C. Goggins at cgoggins@oceancitymd.gov or 410-723-6610.
