Search Warrant: Vikings Linebacker Dallas Turner Swindled Out of Nearly a Quarter of a Million Dollars

HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA, JUL 8 – The fraud involved impersonation to steal $240,000 from Turner’s accounts, with less than $2,500 recovered and several suspects identified for charges, police said.

  • Earlier this year, Dallas Turner, a linebacker for the Minnesota Vikings, fell victim to a banking fraud scam that resulted in a loss of almost $240,000.
  • The scheme began when Turner received a call on February 19 from an individual posing as an employee of JPMorgan Chase, who warned him about identity theft occurring at a bank branch in Arizona.
  • The caller instructed Turner to transfer $120,000 each to two separate LLC accounts at local Chase branches to prevent theft, but the transfers led to the loss.
  • Police recovered less than $2,500 so far and identified several suspects, with Rich Evans stating authorities are moving toward filing charges.
  • Turner, a 22-year-old former first-round draft pick in his second Vikings season, reported the fraud to Eagan Police in April, prompting an ongoing investigation.
