Broward woman who stole AT&T customers’ identities gets prison sentence

Posted on August 7, 2014 by Dissent

Paula McMahon reports:

A Lauderdale Lakes woman, who admitted she stole the identities of about 18 AT&T customers, has been sentenced to two years and 10 months in federal prison, prosecutors said Thursday.

Chouman Emily Syrilien, 25, of Lauderdale Lakes, who is also an amateur rap artist known as Nootchi Bankzz, pleaded guilty earlier this year to aggravated identity theft and possession of unauthorized access devices.

Syrilien admitted that she used her job at Interactive Response Technologies Inc. — which staffs AT&T direct sales and customer service calling centers — in Margate to steal customer identities.
