Customers at several of the largest banks in the US are reportedly victims of a ruthless robbery scheme, according to a new report. Members of two criminal organizations in Maryland have been charged with participating in a criminal gang, attempted murder, armed carjacking, armed robbery, assault and firearms-related counts, reports WMAR 2 News. Authorities say the groups targeted customers visiting physical bank branches, specifically at Bank of America, Capital One, Wells Fargo and Navy Federal Credit Union. The groups would allegedly follow victims after they used an ATM or emerged from inside the bank – striking them at their homes or businesses. In one especially bold move, the thieves are accused of purposefully crashing into a victim’s car to force a stop, robbing them at gunpoint. From August 2023 to July 2024, prosecutors say the groups robbed 34 victims of over $155,000 across five Maryland counties. At time of publishing, a total of seven people have been indicted.
