September 10, 2009
Total Loss:
$95,000
A Fallston man has pleaded guilty to bank fraud charges for using his dead neighbor's identity to get credit accounts. Fifty-six-year-old Jerome Malecki's plea entered Wednesday said he and David Johnson stole about $95,000 in Social Security and state pension payments meant for his neighbor. The neighbor's July 2004 death wasn't reported and federal prosecutors said Malecki continued the scheme until November 2007.
