Identity thieves led a jet set lifestyle

THEY were young, rich and in love.

But the jet-setters financed their fun on the credit cards of unsuspecting neighbours in their high-end apartment building and other identity-fraud victims.

Jocelyn Kirsch, 22, and Edward K Anderton, 25, were charged last Friday with identity theft, forgery, unlawful use of a computer and other counts. Their fraud scheme, estimated at $100,000 (€68,000) this year alone, paid for jaunts to Paris, London and Hawaii.
