A San Leandro woman is facing multiple felony charges after being arrested for allegedly scamming elderly victims out of large sums of money by convincing them their computers were infected with a virus.
The Marin County Sheriff's Office said deputies responded in September to a report of a financial scam involving a fake virus that had purportedly been found on the victim's computer. The victim was told to contact what the victim believed to be a legitimate source for help and then directed to withdraw funds from the victim's bank account to pay for the fake computer service. Couriers were then sent to the victim's home to collect the cash.
On Wednesday, Marin County Sheriff's investigators and Alameda County Sheriff's deputies executed a search warrant at two homes in San Leandro. Chen was arrested and investigators recovered evidence of her alleged crimes from both homes, including a large amount of cash.
