How not to steal $1.5 million: Inside an Instagram influencer’s alleged debit card scam
Quartz
A brazen Instagram scam came to an end this week.
On Thursday (Feb. 13), federal authorities arrested Kayla Massa, an Instagram and YouTube “influencer,” charging her with conspiracy to commit bank and wire fraud. She and her accomplices allegedly recruited victims over Instagram, asking them to hand over emptied-out bank cards, with the accounts then being used to deposit large amounts of stolen money.
