A guilty plea was entered by a rapper in May. He admitted to bank fraud and aggravated identity theft. The individual, who performed under a stage name, was sentenced to prison time.

A scheme involved stealing checks from mailboxes. These checks were then used to profit from the stolen funds. The person behind the scheme was given a six-year prison sentence by a federal judge.

Further details about the case are available, including the role of tutorials in the fraud scheme and the comments of a United States Attorney.
