Local Work-From-Home Scheme Bilks Thousands

December 20, 2007 · No Comments

A Pennsylvania woman who helped run a fraudulent work-at-home business was sentenced to time served for bilking 77,000 people out of $3 million, prosecutors said Thursday.  The Houston Chronicle reports that Misty Stafford, 26, of Gillett, Bradford County, was sentenced to more than 22 months in prison after pleading guilty to concealment of a felony, said acting U.S. Attorney Martin Carlson. Stafford, who was also ordered to pay more than $293,600 in restitution, was given credit for the time she served while awaiting sentencing and has been released.
