U.S.! fraud, gift card scam 2024.11.28-11.28

Man arrested at Hendersonville Publix also has three out-of-state warrants

A man allegedly caught tampering with gift cards at a grocery store was arrested with three outstanding warrants out-of-state.

Lin Jiang, 43, was taken into custody Monday at a Publix in Hendersonville. Authorities at Spring Hill Police Department were able to track Jiang’s outstanding warrants in Texas through his license plate number.

Upon further investigation, it was discovered that Jiang was allegedly involved in a large fraud scheme. Jiang had numerous items that authorities believe are linked to the scheme. They also suspect Jiang and other individuals have allegedly traveled across the U.S. from California committing these acts in other locations.

This investigation is still ongoing to identify the other places the scheme took place as well as other possible suspects or victims involved.

Jiang was charged with 10 counts of criminal simulation.
