A Florida man used fraudulent ATM cards and stolen bank account information to withdraw thousands of dollars from multiple victims before law enforcement caught him while the scheme was still underway.  
  
According to federal prosecutors, 32-year-old Guy Gerral Georges conspired with another person to access bank accounts belonging to numerous individuals.  
  
The co-conspirator supplied Georges with account information, which he used with a card-programming device to create fraudulent ATM cards.  
  
Authorities said Georges then used the cards at multiple ATMs to withdraw thousands of dollars from the compromised accounts. Prosecutors have not publicly released an exact total.   
  
Law enforcement officers stopped Georges while the scheme was still in progress.  
  
During a search of the vehicle he was using, investigators recovered the money obtained through the fraudulent withdrawals.  
  
The seized funds were returned to the affected bank, which reimbursed customers for the money taken from their accounts.   
  
On March 4, 2025, a federal grand jury indicted Georges.  
  
On October 14, 2025, he pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit bank fraud and two counts of aggravated identity theft.   
  
On August 17, 2026, Georges was sentenced to 24 months in federal prison for the bank fraud conspiracy.  
  
He also received 24 months for each aggravated identity theft conviction. Those two sentences will run concurrently with each other but consecutively to the bank fraud sentence, resulting in a total prison term of 48 months, or four years.   
  
The U.S. Secret Service and Mississippi Attorney General’s Office investigated the case through their partnership in the Cyber Fraud Task Force.
