Manheim Township Police are looking for a 28-year-old Brooklyn man they say used a stolen debit card to drain more than $900 from a Lancaster County resident's bank account at a local Best Buy, then allegedly returned to the same store weeks later in a Mercedes-Benz that helped investigators identify him.
According to fox43, Haoran Zheng is wanted in connection with an alleged theft from a resident's bank account, with authorities opening the investigation in August 2026 after the victim reported an unauthorized checking-account transaction totaling $931.79. The victim told police they still had their debit card in hand at the time of the transaction and had no idea how their banking information had been compromised, per the outlet's reporting.
Receipt and Surveillance Video Point to a Suspect
Investigators traced the fraudulent charge to the Best Buy store on the 1700 block of Fruitville Pike, where the alleged transaction took place on August 2. Police located the transaction receipt along with corresponding store surveillance video, which the fox43 article says depicted a man using an iPhone to complete an Apple Pay purchase at the register.
The break in the case reportedly came nearly a month later. Per the same account, surveillance footage showed a man returning to the store on August 28 and arriving and leaving the area in a Mercedes-Benz. Police ran the vehicle's registration and identified Zheng as both the registered owner of the car and the alleged offender, the report states. The victim told investigators they did not know Zheng and had never authorized him to access or use their financial information.
Charges and the Search for Zheng
Police have obtained an arrest warrant for Zheng, who is now considered a wanted person by Manheim Township Police. A Manheim Township Police Department Crimewatch listing ties the case to the Best Buy Electronics store at 1700 Fruitville Pike and shows Zheng facing one count of access device fraud along with five additional charges, including identity theft, theft by deception, receiving stolen property, and unlawful use of a computer. Per fox43's reporting, those charges also include dealing in proceeds of unlawful activities.
Under Pennsylvania law, access-device fraud covers using someone else's credit card, debit card, or other means of account access without authorization to obtain property or services, according to the Pennsylvania General Assembly. When the value involved reaches $500 or more, the statute classifies the offense as a third-degree felony. Manheim Township Police are asking anyone with information on Zheng's whereabouts to call 717-569-6401 or submit a tip online.
Not the Only Best Buy Fraud Case in the Area
WDAC reported further details about the same August 2 Lancaster Best Buy fraud, saying the debit card was used to buy two gift cards and a magnetic phone holder, with total losses exceeding $931. Authorities said they had identified one suspect while a second remained unknown.
Manheim Township Police were also searching for two individuals accused of using stolen debit-card information to rack up nearly $2,000 in fraudulent purchases at the Best Buy in the Shoppes at Belmont, according to WGAL. That report said the suspects made multiple purchases totaling $1,800 and that police had not identified the vehicle used to leave the scene. A separate case reported by abc27 named Junlin Wei, 27, of New York, as wanted on felony access-device-fraud and unlawful-computer-use charges after a woman reported a fraudulent $956.77 charge from a Lancaster County Best Buy on August 3; investigators in that case said store records and a loyalty account helped identify the suspect.
Part of a Broader Pattern Across Pennsylvania
In Berks County, Henry Pena-Acosta, 29, and Lisania Diaz-Feliz, 25, have outstanding felony warrants in a Tilden Township case. An unidentified man was also connected to the case.
These local cases fit into a larger statewide trend. Pennsylvania ranked sixth nationally for cybercrime complaints in 2025, with more than 31,000 reports filed, and seventh for financial losses, totaling more than $537 million, according to a report cited by FOX56. Nationwide, Americans filed more than 1 million cybercrime complaints last year with losses exceeding $20.8 billion, a 26 percent jump from the year before, the outlet reported.
