“It really is incumbent upon everyone to check their credit history on a regular basis to see if there are any unauthorized credit transactions or any unauthorized credit cards taken out using their personal identifiers,” Sheriff Terry Wagner said.
The PayPal accounts were shut down. Both LSO Deputies and PayPal are investigating.
