Police: Women Targeting Central Florida Real Estate Agents

POSTED: 3:25 pm EST November 28, 2006
UPDATED: 3:35 pm EST November 28, 2006

Authorities in Seminole County, Fla., are searching for two women who are apparently pretending to be interested in buying new homes to steal from real estate agents, according to a Local 6 News report.

Investigators said Denise Fuller and Winshenia Lamarr and possibly a third person are meeting with real estate employees in Central Florida and then taking credit cards from their wallets.

"Police say the suspects pretended to be potential house buyers at KB Homes in Sanford," Local 6's Charnel Wright said. "They distracted the employees. When Realtors showed them a home, a third person went in and stole one credit card from each employee's purse."

Local 6 showed video of the women at a Target store in Seminole County purchasing items with stolen credit cards.

Authorities were quickly able to identify the woman suspected of stealing the credit cards.

"Investigators did an excellent job at sharing the information and distributed the photographs throughout the sheriff's office who then in turn identified the individuals who happen to be known to the agency," Seminole County sheriff's representative Carrie Hoeppner said.

Anyone with information concerning the whereabouts of Fuller or Lamarr is urged to call Crimeline at 800-423-TIPS.
