Jason Richard Yuschak was sentenced in federal court this week after pleading guilty to ID theft and mail fraud. While in court for that sentencing, federal officials announced a new mail fraud indictment for an eBay scam.

Yuschak, 28, was convicted of stealing the identities of at least 78 people who bought or shopped for cars at the Columbus Ohio dealerships where he worked between September 2005 and September 2007. During that time he worked for Dennis Autopoint, Germain Toyota, Bob Caldwell Jeep and Dodge, and Crown Kia-Jeep.

He received a three-year prison sentence for opening credit card accounts using information from Ohio driver’s licenses, credit applications, purchase proposals, test drive agreements, purchase contracts and business records.

The grand jury indictment was issued in response to a criminal complaint filed September 8, 2009. According to the mail fraud indictment, Yuschak collected $3,000 from an Oklahoma woman in exchange for a Gibson Les Paul guitar he offered on eBay. The woman sent the payment thru PayPal with two e-checks issued on May 21, 2009.

The woman never received the guitar and finally asked that Yuschak return her money. Yuschak allegedly agreed to cancel the deal but sent her an empty envelope instead.

The victim filed dispute with PayPal and filed a report with her local police department.

If convicted on the mail fraud charges, Yuschak could be sentenced to the maximum prison sentence of 20 years. Any mail fraud sentence would have to be served subsequent to his other three-year imprisonment.
