Following in the very sexy footsteps of Faye Dunaway in "Bonnie and Clyde", Jocelyn Kirsch is the sexiest identity thief I've ever seen.
Kirsch along with her boyfriend Edward Anderton is accused of stealing more than $100,000 by using the identities of their neighbors in a fancy Philadelphia apartment building.
They lived in a $3,000 a month apartment in Belgravia in Center City. They traveled the world hitting Paris, Hawaii and Turks and Caicos and taking pictures to remember it all.
Neighbors wondered how a young college student (she was going to Drexel) could afford all the fancy clothes she wore. He had recently been fired from his job as a financial analyst, he graduated from the University of Pennsylvania.
Kirsch recently went into a salon and spent all day getting somewhere between $1700 and $2200 hundred dollars worth of hair extensions.
She paid with stolen credit cards and phony checks and introduced herself as Morgan Greenhouse.
The salon's owner was skeptical that this young girl in the True Religion jeans could afford the services, so she asked "do you have any idea the costs of these extensions?'" Kirsch responded "Don't worry about the money. Money is not an issue."
Now she may never get paid for her services.
Police finally caught up with Bonnie and Clyde when one of their victims was told that her package had arrived and would be waiting at a local UPS store. The victim who didn't order anything, called police, who were waiting for Kirsch and Anderton when they showed up to pick up the stolen stuff.
In their apartment police found keys to at least 40 apartments and mailboxes, high tech electronics include an Apple laptop, a machine for making high-quality fake IDs, as well as fake IDs and credit cards in many different names.
Dumbest identity thieves ever. Finding those pictures is like one of those cheesy reveals from the movies. Did they also leave receipts all over their apartment as well?! Idiots.
