An Atlanta man has pled guilty to trying to become 225 people on paper so
he could loot their bank account, buy on their credit and ruin their
finances.

And what penalty did 27-year Sarp Yaman get for stealing documented credit
lines of more than $1.5 million? Three years, six months in the federal
penitentiary.

Bank robbers take note: it's often a whole lot less time if you engage in
white-collar crime.
