Charles Dean Good, a 55-year-old from Stockton, has been sentenced to two years for aggravated identity theft, according to U.S. Attorney Phillip A. Talbert. The sentence follows Good’s scheme of stealing large amounts of postage stamps from the U.S. Postal Service using counterfeit checks drawn from the accounts of individuals whose identities he had stolen.
According to
U.S. Attorney’s Office
, Good exploited the postal system by passing at least 1,326 forged checks at post offices in Sacramento and San Joaquin counties. These checks, written using stolen identities, resulted in a loss of at least $252,631 to the U.S. Postal Service, a sum he is now required to repay. The scheme took place between February 2, 2012, and January 18, 2019.
The investigation into these fraudulent activities was spearheaded by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and was subsequently brought to the courtroom by Assistant U.S. Attorney Denise N. Yasinow. As reported by the
U.S. Department of Justice
, the theft involved possessing and utilizing at least one victim’s California driver’s license number and name, revealing the lengths to which Good would go to profit at the expense of others’ identities.
