TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) has arrested Keith Sanders on additional felony charges after investigators uncovered an alleged bank fraud scheme involving a boat loan obtained using false personal information and a fictitious vessel title.
According to FDLE, Sanders secured the loan by providing fraudulent residency and employment information to a financial institution. Investigators also determined that he used a fictitious boat title as part of the transaction.
The investigation was conducted by FDLE agents with assistance from the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation.
Sanders Previously Arrested in Separate Financial Fraud Case
Sanders had already been arrested earlier in 2026 on similar allegations involving a different financial institution.
The latest investigation resulted in his re-arrest on additional felony charges, including grand theft and providing false information to a financial institution.
Investigators believe the alleged fraud may extend beyond the financial institutions already identified in the cases.
FDLE Searching for Additional Financial Institutions That May Have Been Victimized
FDLE agents are examining whether Sanders used similar methods to obtain fraudulent loans or financial benefits from other institutions across Florida.
Authorities believe additional banks or lenders may have been affected and are asking anyone with information about Sanders’ financial activities to contact investigators.
Anyone with information can contact FDLE’s Tallahassee office at 850-410-7640.
