DECATUR — A Chicago woman who tried to rip off a Decatur dealer with the fraudulent purchase of a $13,000 three-wheeled motorcycle was in for a surprise when she found police had rode to the dealership to meet her, a sworn affidavit said.
The affidavit said the dealership had grown suspicious of the woman and figured she was using fraudulent information to finance the $13,268.25 cost of the Can-Am-Ryker Rally machine from Decatur’s World of Powersports.
Police said she had submitted fake ID for an online application sent on Friday and had arrived at the dealership Tuesday to finalize the deal. She wanted the dealership to “drop the Can-Am off in her driveway in Chicago and complete the transaction there,” the statement added.
Instead, she found herself confronted by Decatur police who had been alerted by the dealership, which handed officers her finance application and the 36-year-old woman’s fake ID.
