Minneapolis Real Estate Agent Steals I.D., Buys 15 Properties
The Hennepin County attorney's office on Monday filed criminal charges against a Minneapolis area real estate agent alleging that she used the identities of five people she'd met to secure about $3 million in housing loans for 15 metro-area properties, according to a report by the (Minneapolis - St. Paul) Star Tribune, reported at StarTribune.com.
According to an investigative aide for the Eden Prairie Police Department who worked the case, in one deal, the "equity that a grandmother had built up in her north Minneapolis home [ended up in the suspect's] husband's bank account."
Reportedly, one victim, who was new to the area and wanted to buy a home, was offered assistance by the suspect, whom she had met at her local church.
