A Detroit woman reported that someone had made fraudulent charges on her debit card on Sunday, June 28, after she used it to make a $10 donation outside of a Birmingham store on the 2100 block of E. Maple. 


The woman said that three men asked her for the donation outside the store, then later that day she found $1,000 had been charged to debit card moments after the donation. She said her bank froze her accounts and denied more attempts to withdraw thousands of dollars.
