IT Executive Steals $6 Million, Busted by Word Doc Metadata

Hicham Kabbaj, 48, pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud and faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. He defrauded the company for which he worked by arranging for payment of fraudulent invoices to a shell company he created. Between August 2015 and April 2019, he sent 52 invoiced to his employer from his own personal bank accounts. The only withdrawals from the Interactive Systems account, other than maintenance fees, are transfers to two accounts at Bank-1 held in the name of KABBAJ.
