STARKE— A former KFC employee was sentenced to time already served and to five years’ probation for photographing credit cards of drive-through customers and then making purchases with those cards.
Marquerva Tytianna Latori Lumar, 19, of Starke was arrested in April for fraud, identity theft and fraudulent use of credit cards.
In a sworn complaint, Bradford Detective James Crews wrote that “Lumar stated that she only took a picture of a few cards but only tried two of the cards for online purchases.”
Crews added that Lumar claimed she attempted to buy a necklace from a company on Instagram, clothes from Ralph Lauren and hair supplies from the Gainesville retailer Dynasty Boutique using the stolen information.
Circuit Judge James M. Colaw also ordered the defendant to write letters of apology to the victims. A restitution hearing is scheduled for Aug. 10.
