A 12-count indictment was unsealed last week charging West Sacramento residents Kimberly Acevedo, 50, and Philip Rich, 49, with mail fraud, aggravated identity theft, possession of stolen mail, and unlawful possession of 15 or more unauthorized access devices, Acting U.S. Attorney Phillip A. Talbert announced.
According to the indictment, between March 2019 and March 2021, Acevedo and Rich perpetrated a mail fraud scheme that involved theft of U.S. mail, identity theft and unlawful possession of dozens of stolen bank cards.
Generally, Acevedo and Rich obtained the personally identifiable information (PII) of victims and used that information to apply for new credit cards, debit cards, checkbooks and other financial instruments to be sent to the victims’ real home addresses.
