STAFFORD — A North Arlington woman has been charged after Stafford Township police said she used a fake New Jersey driver’s license containing a victim’s personal information to withdraw money from a bank account in Middlesex County.
The Stafford Township Police Department said its Detective Bureau wrapped up the investigation April 17 into a fraud case tied to TD Bank at 70 Banyard St. in New Brunswick. The case stemmed from a December 2025 incident involving a Stafford resident who told police TD Bank alerted them to an unauthorized $800 transaction.
Investigators said the suspect used a driver’s license bearing the victim’s identifying information to access the account.
Police identified the suspect as Linda Aquino, 63, of Rutherford Place in North Arlington. She was charged with third-degree theft, third-degree identity theft and third-degree knowingly exhibiting false identification.
Authorities said the charges were filed on a criminal complaint-warrant and sent to the Hudson County Correctional Center, where Aquino was already being held. On April 22, Stafford police took custody of Aquino and transported her to the Ocean County Jail, where she is awaiting a hearing in Ocean County Superior Court.
Detective Zac Halliday led the investigation.
