23 Charged in Card Fraud Scheme

Federal authorities in New York have charged 23 individuals for the roles they allegedly played in a counterfeit card scheme. The scheme compromised more than 1,000 payment cards used to make more than $2 million worth of unauthorized retail purchases in several states. Financial fraud expert Shirley Inscoe says while indictments have likely put a significant dent in this nearly seven-month scheme, they aren’t likely to impact the masterminds behind the job. A similar nationwide card and retail scheme dating back to 2011, known as Operation Black Rain, also was prosecuted.”]
