Feds Bust Mailman and Fraudster in $374,000 Credit Card Caper

A North Texas man is accused of making nearly $375,000 in purchases using fraudulent credit cards that he got with the help of a mail carrier who intercepted them as they were out for delivery.

Loragecar Figaro was indicted Wednesday on a charge of conspiracy to commit mail fraud, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported.

The U.S. Postal Inspection Service launched an investigation in December after being contacted by Chase Bank, which had identified multiple fraudulent credit-card applications in the 76133 ZIP code, in south Fort Worth. The cards, all delivered to addresses along the same postal route, had been used to rack up $374,000 in debt.. Dallas News
