According to court records, the former operators of Sag Harbor’s 7-Eleven who also controlled 14 7-Elevens stores in Long Island and Virginia provided their employees with more than 20 identities stolen from United States citizens, housed those employees at houses they owned and skimmed large portions of their employees’ wages.
“Using the 7-Eleven brand, the defendants dispensed wire fraud and identity theft, along with Big Gulps and candy bars,” U.S. Attorney for Eastern New York Loretta Lynch said in a release. “In our backyards, the defendants not only systematically employed illegal aliens, but concealed their employment by stealing the identities of children and even the dead.”
