Arizona, USA. A woman was charged that she recruited up to 136 people in a scheme to pretend to be college students and make fake applications for loans.
It was alleged that she helped the "students" apply for and get college places for on-line classes and then to apply for loans despite non-attendance. For this, prosecutors say, she received a fee of between USD500 and USD1500 each, the applicants keeping the bulk of the loans.
Of the 136 or so people involved, the woman's records were sufficient only to properly identify and evidence charges against 64.
The woman, plus those 64, have been indicted by a Grand Jury in Phoenix. At the time of writing, no plea has been entered and all defendants are therefore currently presumed innocent.
