Khanh Bui, Mail Fraud, Louisiana 2020

A Westwego man has been convicted of mail fraud in a federal court in Louisiana.

Khanh Bui, 43, pled guilty to mail fraud, announced U.S. Attorney Peter G. Strasser.

Bui will be sentenced on February 19, 2020 by the Honorable Susie Morgan.

According to court documents, Bui fraudulently obtained credit cards and false California driver’s licenses in order to obtain money and property from home improvement stores.

This is a serious crime that can have severe consequences for the victims. Mail fraud is a type of white-collar crime that involves using the mail to deceive or cheat people out of their money.

Bui faces 20 years of imprisonment, a $250,000 fine, and 3 years of supervised release. The U.S. Attorney praised the work of the United States Postal Inspection Service in investigating this matter.

The prosecution of this case is being handled by Assistant U. S. Attorney G. Dall Kammer, Supervisor of the General Crimes Unit.

This case highlights the importance of being vigilant and cautious when dealing with unknown individuals or companies. It’s essential to do your research and verify the identity of anyone you do business with.

Bui’s guilty plea is a significant step towards justice, and we hope that it will serve as a warning to others who may be considering similar crimes.

As a community, we must work together to prevent such crimes and protect our citizens from falling victim to scams and fraud.
