Fifty-One-Year-Old Woman Pleads Guilty to Wire Fraud | Indianapolis News

from Indianapolis News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A 51-year-old woman, Shayna Williams, just pleaded guilty to wire fraud after scamming an elderly victim for six years—pretending her daughter was in a life-threatening car crash and needing expensive surgeries. She even impersonated insurance agents with fake numbers to keep the ruse alive, while secretly spending the stolen cash on dinners, vacations, and gambling. A friend of the victim also sent $170,000, adding to the $672,000 Williams now owes. Facing up to 20 years in prison, this chilling case is a stark warning to stay vigilant with money requests—especially from strangers.
