Woman charged as part of fraud ring selling Disney theme park tickets

Eileen Hightower, of Orange County, was in federal court earlier this week on a charge of credit card fraud. Hightower has been accused of being part of a fraud ring that sold hundreds of thousands of dollars of Disney theme park tickets. She and three other people were investigated by federal agents, who say the group “used other people’s credit card accounts to make 0,000 in fraudulent purchases in the last eight months at a dozen Orlando area resorts, mostly to buy large amounts of Walt Disney World theme park tickets. مواقع القمار العالمية



Hightower’s husband, Ty Crooms, was interviewed by WESH 2 reporters and he says she is being “railroaded” by the agents. “They’re going to fabricate something to make it stick. We’ve got to let the courts decide, but it’s innocent until proven guilty. This is America.”

Hightower has previously worked in ticket re-sales, which Richard Hornsby, WESH 2 legal analyst, says proves that she knows the industry and how to use it.

Federal agents say Hightower’s group sold ,000 worth of fake tickets in just one hour on January 2. قوانين البوكر بالصور
