In December 2022, a Marstons Mills resident was instructed by Yuxin Fu to transfer $46,000 to a 'safe' government account to avoid legal trouble related to their social security number.
Fu, posing as a DEA agent, claimed that the victim's social security number was linked to a Texas investigation, creating a facade of urgency to facilitate the scam.
Despite a warrant issued in June 2023, Fu managed to flee to China but was apprehended upon her attempted reentry at JFK International Airport in September.
At her arraignment on October 4, Fu faced serious charges including larceny over $1,200, with her bail set at $100,000 due to the significant amount involved in the scam.
