A man has admitted to stealing over $85,000 from people’s bank accounts on the East Coast.
Scott Bagley of Bangor, Maine, has pleaded guilty to conspiring with others to impersonate legitimate bank account holders to obtain money from their accounts, says the U.S. Department of Justice.
The scheme involved accessing and draining funds from multiple victim accounts using impersonation tactics.
In their investigation, authorities managed to seize a fake Maine driver’s license featuring the name of a law enforcement officer with Bagley’s image on it.
“Bagley faces up to 30 years in prison, a maximum fine of $1 million, and up to five years of supervised release on the bank fraud charges.
For aggravated identity theft, he faces a mandatory prison term of two years, consecutive to any other sentence imposed, a $250,000 fine, and up to one year of supervised release.”
In total, the 61-year-old obtained approximately $85,100 through fraud.
FBI Boston investigated the case, focusing on identity theft and bank fraud tactics.
