Two individuals and co-conspirators ran a large-scale return-fraud operation (July 2017–Dec 2019) that exchanged over 6,000 counterfeit iPhones for authentic Apple replacements using spoofed IMEIs/serials, CMRA mailboxes, and forged IDs; Apple incurred losses exceeding $2.5M, and the principal actors were arrested, convicted of mail fraud, sentenced to prison, and ordered to pay restitution.
