Four Russians Indicted In Identity Theft And Fraud Ring
United States Attorney McGregor W. Scott announced today the unsealing of a Superseding Indictment charging four Russian men with participating in a wide-ranging conspiracy to purchase merchandise and obtain credit using stolen identity information. Two of the defendants, ROMAN KARELOV, 18, and OLEG V. UMAROV, 20, both from Russia, appeared yesterday in United States District Court in Sacramento before Magistrate Judge Dale A. Drozd, where they were ordered detained without bail pending further appearances in the case. KARELOV, UMAROV, and a third defendant, RADIK E. NIZAMOV, also of Russia, were arrested by FBI agents on April 13, 2007, in Baltimore, where all three were temporarily residing. NIZAMOV is currently being transported to Sacramento in the custody of the United States Marshals Service. A fourth defendant, ALEKSEY CHUGAEV, 24, is a fugitive believed to be in southern Russia.
The case is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, with the assistance of the Davis Police Department, the United States Secret Service, the United States Postal Inspection Service, Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement of the Department of Homeland Security, and other agencies.
