House flipping scam in Brooklyn.

[flippinout]

It was credit card fraud on steroids.

Over a dozen people were in on the scam that took the identities of people to use to make up fake credit cards so they could go on shopping sprees to finance a house flipping business that was not on the up and up.

This was an international thing and most of the identities were gleaned from a Russian website that listed the stolen credit card numbers.

Wow that doesn't sound like no small fry operation! I am glad they were caught and hope they are made to pay the price. I also hope that the people who's identities were stolen are able to get their lives back into order. Its a real shame that these kinds of things happen.
