Juan Dominguez and Yamika Poulard were arrested Sept. 17 and charged after allegedly using a 65-year-old woman's business credit card for seven successful transactions totaling $1,894.95, Coral Springs police said. The woman reported 26 uses.
The charges include credit-card fraud, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, grand theft from a person aged 65 or older, and an organized scheme to defraud. Police said the alleged spending included $283 at Zumiez, $501.50 at Kohl's, a $380 ATM withdrawal at 7-Eleven and $581 toward a water bill; amounts spent at T-Mobile and a Caribbean restaurant were unspecified. Poulard's middle-school-aged daughter went with them to Kohl's.
Store security footage led to the couple's identification and arrest. Both were taken to Broward County Jail; bond information had not been publicly disclosed. The article cites a Florida law firm saying fraudulent card use more than twice in six months or involving more than $100 can qualify as a third-degree felony, punishable upon conviction by up to five years in prison, five years' probation and a $5,000 fine.
