Mary Richards reportingA man jailed earlier this year on fraud charges is accused of masterminding another scheme by setting up fake banks.

Shaun Morgan was released from jail in March after a detention hearing. Authorities say since his release, he's printed up cashier's checks displaying his fake banks' names -- names such as First Mutual Credit Corp., First Mutual Credit Bank and First Mutual Credit -- to defraud at least 50 people.

Morgan is now back in custody, and authorities are looking for more possible victims.

If you believe you are a victim in this case, contact the FBI in Salt Lake City at (801) 579-1400.
