A 26-year-old Latta man has been sentenced to two and a half years in prison for credit card fraud and aggravated identity theft, U.S. Attorney W. Walter Wilkins said in a press release.
U.S. District Judge Terry L. Wooten of Florence also sentenced William Lashon Campbell, also known as Waylon Maurice Campbell, to three years probation and ordered him to pay $10,161.88 in restitution.
Campbell was employed by a local finance company and stole customers’ personal and account information. He used the stolen data to manufacture and pass counterfeit commercial checks between April and September 2007. During a search of Campbell’s residence by Latta police in November 2007, additional counterfeit checks, counterfeit identification cards and stolen credit card account numbers were retrieved.
Assistant U.S. Attorney William E. Day II of the Florence office prosecuted the case, which also was investigated by the U.S. Secret Service.
