<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nJeff Quinton<\/a> sends us a link to his blog where he reported from a WBAL<\/a> story about recently discharged Coast Guardsman Sterling Orlando Scott who pretended to be an Army Sergeant Major to defraud the Coast Guard Mutual Assistance Program;<\/p>\n CGIS agents indicated that they received information from a Chief Warrant Officer on December 2, 2014, who reported receiving a phone call from an individual that identified himself as \u201cSergeant Major Reese from Army Emergency Relief\u201d on December 2nd around 1:00 p.m.<\/p>\n The person claiming to be \u201cSergeant Major Reese\u201d indicated that he had an Army member flying to Baltimore that needed emergency travel assistance. In addition, \u201cSergeant Major Reese\u201d contacted the Coast Guard Mutual Assistance Program at 2401 Hawkins Point Road in Curtis Bay asking for assistance for a soldier named \u201cOrland Scott\u201d, whose wife was reportedly killed in a car accident. The person calling was believed to be the defendant posing as \u201cSergeant Major Reese\u201d. CGIS agents had developed information that the individual posing as \u201cOrlando Scott\u201d was actually Sterling Orlando Scott who had committed similar schemes under that name at military installations in Galveston, Texas, Yorktown, Pennsylvania, Savannah Georgia and Elizabeth City, North Carolina.<\/p>\n On December 4, 2014, the suspect showed up at the Hawkins Point Road location to receive the funds approved for his alleged crisis. Once he signed for the funds, he was immediately taken into custody by detectives and agents conducting surveillance.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Dumbass. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
