Two men suspected of withdrawing over $164,000 with fraudulently-obtained unemployment benefit debit cards were arrested this month in Thousand Oaks, officials said Monday.
A resident called 911 on the afternoon of Aug. 6 when she saw two people “acting suspiciously” at a Bank of America ATM on 1440 N. Moorpark Rd., the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.
Deputies responded and stopped a car just as it was leaving the area, finding two grocery bags full of cash and a large amount of Visa debit cards in different people’s names, according to the Sheriff’s Office.
Investigators found that the two were using California Employment Development Department debit cards that they obtained by applying for benefits using the stolen identities of multiple victims, all of whom live outside the state, the Sheriff’s Office said.
The men then used the cards to make large ATM withdrawals from multiple locations, officials added.

I sure would like to see what they used to justify the stop.
Forgot to turn on their signal when leaving the curb?
Had to be someone on the “inside”. I am sure their security would trigger the numerous withdrawla. Sounds like the IRS sending $Millions to hundreds of people at the same address in a third world country, No one follows up.
