On September 13, 2025, Spring Lake Park Police were dispatched to talk with D. O., a resident of Spring Lake Park, Anoka County. D. O. Reported that she had written two checks to pay her mortgage, one for $957.15 and one for $1,100, and put them in her mailbox on August 25, 2025. The checks were cashed and posted on August 26, 2025, but they did not reach the mortgage company. Instead, it appeared from the check copies D. O. Was able to access that someone had used white-out or another substance to alter the payee line from the mortgage company to "Nasrrudiyn Hakiym". That person had also put a checking account number in the memo line of both checks, which came back to Defendant Nasrrudiyn Abdul Hakiym ([DOB REDACTED]). The checks had been cashed by mobile deposit, so no surveillance footage was available.
Police contacted Defendant and asked him about the checks. Defendant stated that he repairs e-bikes and that he must have received the payments in exchange for services. He stated that he recalled the $957.15 check as being used to purchase an e-bike, and he described the check's owner as a white female in her thirties (D. O. Is a senior citizen). Defendant stated that he does not keep transaction records, and could not show any receipts or verification of the transaction. D. O. Confirmed that she does not know Defendant and had no reason to write him a check, and noted that her mortgage had gone unpaid as a result of the theft.
