Three indicted in scheme that used fraudulent cell phone numbers to impersonate IRS agents
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Three men are under indictment in Pittsburgh on wire fraud charges in connection with activating and programming cellphones for use by criminals impersonating IRS employees to harass unsuspecting citizens into paying purported tax debts nationwide.
A federal grand jury last month returned charges against Ronnell Taylor Jr., 37, of Jeannette; Barry Nealer, 40, of Pittsburgh; and Michael Galanis, 31, of Export.
The case was unsealed last week in U.S. District Court and announced Thursday by the U.S. attorney's office.
