According to an affidavit from U.S. Department of State special agent James Cooper, Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, woman Elizabeth Clemente attempted to withdraw money from Central One Federal Credit Union posing as one of their depositors.

Clemente presented a passport that showed her face as the depositor, but the credit union had stored an image of each depositor as part of their account, and when the two were compared, the credit union manager called the police.

Clemente attempted to run out of the bank when she saw the police outside. She did not make it far.

Clemente presented the passport to police and continued to claim that she was the depositor, but there was a dead give away that the passport was fake.

"Notably, under the "Place of Birth" section of the passport card, the state was misspelled as "Massachucetts."

I mean, I say it was a dead give away, but have you seen who‘s running the federal government these days?

Still, if you're going to make a fake passport, maybe stick to a state that is easy to spell like "Texas" or "Utah".

Anyway, eventually Clemente‘s true identity was discovered, and the affidavit calls for criminal charges of knowing use of a forged or fraudulent U.S. Passport Card and aggravated identity theft.
