Man gets three years for credit card racket
Monday, June 13, 2011
A Jamaican man, believed to be part of a multimillion-dollar international credit card racket, has been sentenced to three years in prison in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate’s Court after he used a fraudulent American credit card to purchase almost $2 million (US$21,855.50) worth of appliances from the United States.
The man, Roshan Shaw, a 29-year-old resident of a Spanish Town, St Catherine, was sentenced when he appeared before Resident Magistrate Lorna Shelly Williams on Friday.
Shaw, who had previously pleaded guilty to six counts of money laundering and a count of conspiracy, was sentenced to one year in prison on the charge of conspiracy to defraud and two years each on three counts of money laundering, which are to run concurrently. He was, however admonished and discharged on the other three counts.
Shaw was held on May 2 in a joint operation between members of the Organised Crime Investigation Division and the US Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
During a search of Shaw’s home, police said they recovered items he had purchased on the Internet using the fraudulent credit card which was seized. The items included a refrigerator, a six-burner gas stove, a dishwasher and a clothes dryer.
The items, the court was told, were purchased last November from Florida Builders Appliance, using the credit card that was issued by Chase Bank of America.
