Police are investigating a report of larceny after a 21-year-old Morvant man allegedly paid $3,200 to a woman he met via Instagram, but never received the items promised.

According to reports, the victim said he was contacted on June 17, by an Instagram page using the name Kavita M. The woman allegedly told him she came from a wealthy family and could assist him in obtaining an iPhone 14 and dental braces for his upper jaw.

Investigators said arrangements were made for the woman to meet the victim at his workplace, Adam’s Bagels, on June Wednesday. However, she reportedly arrived later than expected, at approximately 4.45 p.m.
