Odessa Man Loses 6200 to Confidence Men Swindle
Odessa police seek three men who ran an old army game to steal 6200 from a local man last week. Two suspects, linked to past cases, claimed oil lands in Texas were worth 32000 and promised a quick sale if the lien was cleared. The victim handed cash and a cashier’s check, then waited with one swindler for a Midland trip that never happened. Police tie the scheme to a Fort Worth real estate man and another hotel stopover as the plot unfolded.
