Apple Store fraud


A suspect is on the loose in the case of a fraud targeting Apple and Fry's Electronics stores, according to reports. The San Jose Police Department and the US Secret Service are said to be after Ernesto Ignacio Madrigal, a man accused of obtaining over $75,000 worth of electronics through the use of dubious credit cards from France and Germany. The crime spree is said to have occurred throughout California's Bay Area between November 8th and March 26th.

Madrigal was in fact arrested at one point, caught March 3rd at the Pleasanton Apple Store, but is currently a fugitive. He is said to roam around the eastern Bay and Modesto regions, and drive either a black Range Rover or a Lincoln pickup truck. Tips should be provided either to the SJPD or Fugitive.com.
