A strange ATM incident in Plano led to the arrest of Ionut Aurel Iova, a Romanian fugitive wanted internationally for fraud and drug offenses.
Victims Jonathan Hogue and Ray McCormick unknowingly fell prey to a scam called cash trapping, where thieves attach hidden devices to ATMs to steal withdrawn cash.
Hogue reported the issue, sparking a multi-agency investigation.
Iova was arrested in Houston on August 20. Authorities urge the public to inspect ATMs, cover PIN entries, and report suspicious activity.
