PA: Two arrested at Limerick outlets for identity theft

Posted on December 15, 2010 by Dissent

Ellen Faust reports:

Two New York men were arrested after being caught at a store with false identities and hundreds of bank account numbers, Social Security numbers and other personal information that was not their own.

Vladimir Pascal, aka Derrick Brown, and David Rice, aka Clifford Augustine, both of Brooklyn, N.Y., were to be arraigned before District Judge Walter Gadzicki on Wednesday, but their hearing on charges of identity theft, forgery and related charges was continued in 60 days.

[…]

While police were detaining the men on suspicion of identity theft, the store manager found a portable hard drive on the floor. When checking what was on the hard drive, the store manager found photos of the two suspects along with numerous bank account numbers, Social Security numbers, birthdates, passwords and personal information, according to court documents.

Okay, now where or how did the two defendants allegedly obtain all of that PII? I wonder if we’ll ever find out.
