Carding 4 Carders
Professional
Three Nigerian citizens found a way to deceive the US authorities: for a year they received coronavirus unemployment benefits. The scheme was implemented throughout the year (from June 2020 to July 2021). During this time, they sent about 200 applications, and all of them were on behalf of individuals who also did not have the right to receive assistance from the state.
The applications contained false information, including, for example, that the applicants worked for certain employers, had a specific annual income, were self-employed, but then remained unemployed or were dismissed from their permanent jobs. At the same time, the members of the group themselves were never officially registered anywhere and did not plan to enter the path of legal earnings.
On the other hand, almost a million dollars were received from the state for 68 bank cards owned by two of the three members of the group. As a result, one of them was sentenced to 26 months in prison, and the other — to 14. The case of the third accomplice was considered earlier — in the summer of 2023, he received four years and nine months in prison.
Despite the fact that the group was able to remain unpunished and unnoticed for a year, it should not be said that its members were distinguished by intelligence and ingenuity. Absolutely all 200 applications that came from the names of different people contained the same address of the applicant. And there was a real house at this address, in which three members of the group lived.
