Yaisder Herrera Gargallo and Meylisi Rueda seemed like a normal couple, enjoying a vacation and spending lots of money on small luxuries in Portland, Me., more than 1,300 miles from their Miami home. But the credit cards they and others in their visiting group were using to live the good life did not belong to them.
Police say the couple used credit and debit cards cloned in June of 2016 for purchases at stores around the city, including Best Buy, Sears and Walgreens. A search of their rented Jeep Patriot turned up 47 cards, two card skimmers and a laptop with the personal information from several people collected starting in November of 2015.
The group’s modus operandi is common for criminals who clone debit and credit cards by installing skimmers at places like gasoline stations and ATMs.
THE ABOVE APPEARED IN MIAMI HERALD
Miami has already gained reputation for Medicare Fraud and convictions for cases such as above nationwide.
And almost all the perpetrators are CUBAN..whether it is milking the Medicare or false prescriptions or credit card or identity theft..I am sure that the Cubans who left the island soon after the revolution might cringe at the new comers who are in a hurry to make a quick buck and trying to excel in the north american game of exploitation.
The CUBANS of Miami and the CUBANS of the islands are almost as if they belong to two different races.
You can think about it, but please I beg you:
PLEASE DONT JUDGE THE CUBANS IN THE ISLAND BY THE CUBANS YOU MEET IN USA...In the USA there are wonderful people of Cuban origin but it is here that you also have a chance to meet the criminal mind of the Cuban..
