The document says that Stock fraudulently appropriated thousands of devices purchased under the state program. The scam began in 2013 when the official was in charge of the New Mexico Central Unified School District program. A group of attackers, which also included James Bender and Saurabh Chawly, shipped a shipment of iPods to Maryland, where the gadgets were sold on eBay at a significant discount.
In court, Stock admitted that she made over $800,000 selling stolen iPods between 2013 and 2018. In addition, the woman filed false income declarations, as a result of which she stole more than 270 thousand dollars from the state. Chawly, who acquired the house and Tesla car as a result of the scam, will be forced to return $2.3 million from his account to the state and pay a fine of $714,000.
