GREENVILLE, NC (WTVD) -- Greenville Police are waxing poetic about financial fraud but not singing the praises of a suspect wanted for suspected cloning of a person's debit card.

The poem begins:

Hello, sir. How do you do?
If we may have your attention for a few.
Did you really think you got away?
After all, you racked up nearly $1,000 in fraudulent charges the other day.
The victim still has his debit card and wallet,

Which means you likely cloned his information using a whatchamacallit.


The Facebook post has been shared 300 times since it was posted earlier Wednesday.



Greenville Police posted surveillance images of the suspect and urged people:

Maybe you have always wanted to be a detective or maybe you are just bored,
Either way, Crime Stoppers offers a reward.
So pick up the phone,
And please help us identify this clone!


Police said they had National Poetry Month in mind when they penned the clever plea.
