Pennsylvania State Police are seeking information about a case of identity theft in which someone opened a credit card account, ordered phones, shipped them to the victim’s residence and then attempted to retrieve them.

A statement from the Warren barracks explained that a 33-year-old Oil Creek Road, Spring Creek Township resident “reported that (someone) had opened a credit card in his name and used it to order cell phones from Verizon.”

“The victim had his identity stolen on Jan. 7,” Trooper Jeffrey Dahl told the Times Observer. “The actor(s) purchased three cell phones with the fraudulent card and then sent them to the victim’s residence.”

The suspect then attempted to retrieve the phones from the residence on Jan. 19 when, Dahl said, the individual was “captured on video surveillance.”

The suspect then fled the scene without the phones and the victim, while his identity was stolen, suffered no monetary loss.

Dahl said that the “investigation indicates the actors in the photos are possibly from the Jamestown, N.Y., area.”

He said anyone with information is asked to contact state police at (814) 728-3600.
