HOUSTON A Houston man faces up to 30 years in prison in an identity theft and credit card scam targeting dozens of elderly people nationwide. Michael Irving pleaded guilty Tuesday to conspiracy to commit wire fraud and to aggravated identity theft in the $1.1 million scheme. Prosecutors in Houston say the 33-year-old Irving conspired to defraud Compass Bank and online payment service PayPal. Authorities say Irving and co-defendants in 2013 applied for and obtained credit cards through the use of stolen identities, targeting about 70 people. All of the victims were between the ages of 70 and 95. The credit cards were then used to get cash advances. source: http://www.star-telegram.com/news/state/texas/article10582940.html
