The arrest last month of a suspect in connection with a triple shooting in northwest Miami-Dade has led to the arrest of another man accused of conspiring with the alleged shooter to launder fraud proceeds, authorities said.<\/p>\n

Edinson Daniel DeLeon, 28, was arrested Wednesday on charges including organized scheme to defraud conspiracy, money laundering conspiracy and unlawful use of a communications device, an arrest report said.<\/p>\n

According to the report, the alleged criminal activity was discovered after the July 17 arrest of 24-year-old Justin Ramirez in an attempted murder case<\/a>.<\/p>\n

That case involved a July 5 shooting in which three people, including a 2 -year-old, were shot inside a BMW in Northwest Miami-Dade, authorities said.<\/p>\n

While executing a cellular search warrant on Ramirez, investigators found personal and financial information belonging to around 400 people, including names, addresses, Social Security numbers and credit card info, the report said.<\/p>\n

Ramirez used the info for bank spoofing, account takeover fraud and other schemes, and was later arrested on multiple charges related to the fraudulent activity including unlawful possession of 5 or more identifications and unlawful use of a communications device, according to the report and jail records.<\/p>\n

Investigators also found text messages between Ramirez and a contact, “Eddo Brazy,” whose number was linked by subscriber information to DeLeon, the report said.<\/p>\n

The conversations included them discussing using DeLeon’s bank account to transfer and move “illicit funds obtained through fraudulent activity,” the report said.<\/p>\n

The funds were transferred and moved to hide the fraud, and the two also discussed DeLeon receiving a portion of the proceeds, the report said.<\/p>\n

According to the report, the conversations involved thousands of dollars on multiple occasions, for a total of around $30,000.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The arrest last month of a suspect in connection with a triple shooting in northwest Miami-Dade has led…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":376870,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[225,227,226,373],"class_list":["post-376869","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-hialeah","tag-hialeah","tag-hialeah-headlines","tag-hialeah-news","tag-miami-dade-county"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/376869","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=376869"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/376869\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/376870"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=376869"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=376869"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=376869"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
