COUNT ONE
(Wire Fraud Conspiracy)
BACKGROUND
1. At all times relevant to this Indictment:
a. Defendant ARRANTES GARRINCHA GREEN, a/k/ a “Don
Gucci,” a/k/ a “Gucci” (“GREEN”), resided in Margate, Florida.
b. Defendant DASHAWN BROWN (“BROWN”) resided in
Queens, NewYork.
c. Defendant TROY LINTON COOPER (“COOPER”) resided in
East Hartford, Connecticut.
d. Defendant ANDRE DONOVAN DUFFAS (“DUFFAS”) resided
in Plantation, Florida.
e. Defendant OMAR KIMANI FORSYTHE, a/k/a “Biggs”
(“FORSYTHE”) resided in Tamarac, Florida.
f. Defendant ONEIL GENTLES, a/k/ a “Daffy” (“GENTLES”)
resided in Bronx, New York.
g. Defendant HELTON ARANDO MALLETTE (“MALLETTE”)
resided in Miami, Florida.
h. Defendant KINDLEY MICHEL (“MICHEL”) resided in Spring
Valley, New York.
i. Defendant ELVIS ANTHONY PREHAY (“PREHAY”) resided in
Tamarac, Florida.
j. Defendant SHELDON ANDRE WELLINGTON, a/k/a
“Shellinz” (“WELLINGTON”) resided in Rockville Center, New York.
k. Defendant JERMAINE WILSON, a/k/a “Budds” (“WILSON”)
resided in Nanuet, New York.
1. The “Victim Company” was a provider of electronic
communications and cellular telephone service and a distributor of
2
smartphones and other electronics equipment, with offices throughout the
United States, including New Jersey.
m. The “Parcel Carrier” is one of the world’s largest package
delivery, supply chain management, and logistics companies, with offices
throughout the United States, including New Jersey.
n. The Victim Company shipped in interstate commerce, among
other things, electronic equipment via the Parcel Carrier.
o. Victim-1 was an individual who resided in Elmont, New
York.
OVERVIEW
2. From in or about June 2015 through in or about June 2017, the
defendants and others, placed fraudulent orders for electronic equipment,
including new smartphones, from the Victim Company, and then stole that
equipment by, among other means, paying drivers working for the Parcel
Carrier to divert the equipment to fellow conspirators. The conspiracy unfolded
in three parts. First, certain of the defendants placed orders over the telephone
with the Victim Company for new equipment. The equipment was ordered
using the name and other personal information of actual individuals without
those individuals’ knowledge or authorization. The orders were placed using
stolen credit or debit card data of other actual individuals. Second, members of
the conspiracy alerted complicit drivers (the “Drivers”) working for the Parcel
Carrier to the anticipated delivery dates and locations of the fraudulentlyordered
equipment, and paid the Drivers to divert the equipment from the mail

stream and deliver it to other members of the conspiracy (the “Runners”).
Third, for a payment, the Runners delivered the stolen equipment to the
leaders of the conspiracy located in Florida or pawned the equipment and
shared the criminal proceeds with conspirators.
THE CONSPIRACY
3. From in or about June 2015 through in or about June 2017, in the
District of New Jersey and elsewhere, defendants,
ARRANTES GARRINCHA GREEN,
a/k/ a “Don Gucci,”
a/k/a “Gucci,”
DASHAWN BROWN,
TROY LINTON COOPER,
ANDRE DONOVAN DUFFAS,
OMAR KIMANI FORSYTHE,
a/k/ a “Biggs,”
ONEIL GENTLES,
a/k/a “Daffy,”
HELTON ARANDO MALLETTE,
KINDLEY MICHEL,
ELVIS ANTHONY PREHAY,
SHELDON ANDRE WELLINGTON,
a/k/a “Shellinz,” and
JERMAINE WILSON,
a/k/ a “Budds,”
did knowingly and intentionally conspire and agree with each other and others
to devise a scheme and artifice to defraud the Victim Company, and to obtain
money and property, namely equipment from the Victim Company, by means of
materially false and fraudulent pretenses, representations, and promises, and
for the purpose of executing such scheme and artifice to defraud, did transmit
and cause to be transmitted by means of wire communications in interstate
4
and foreign commerce, certain writings, signs, signals, pictures, and sounds,
contrary to Title 18, United States Code, Section 1343.
OBJECT OF THE CONSPIRACY
4. It was the object of the conspiracy for defendants GREEN, BROWN,
COOPER, DUFFAS, FORSYTHE, GENTLES, MALLETIE, MICHEL, PREHAY,
WELLINGTON, WILSON, and others, known and unknown, to obtain property
from the Victim Company by using stolen credit or debit card data and the
names and other personal information of unwitting individuals without their
knowledge or authorization to place orders for equipment from the Victim
Company, and then diverting that equipment out of the mail stream to
themselves.
MANNER AND MEANS OF THE CONSPIRACY
5. It was part of the conspiracy that defendant GREEN and other
members of the conspiracy placed orders over the telephone for new
equipment, including smartphones, from the Victim Company. Many of the
orders were placed using two cellular telephone devices associated with
defendant GREEN.
6. It was further part of the conspiracy that the fraudulent orders
were placed using the names, addresses, and other personal information of
hundreds of individuals without such individuals’ knowledge or authorization.
The individuals’ actual residential addresses were used by the conspirators as
the shipping addresses for the fraudulent orders. Oftentimes, the individuals in
5
whose identity the fraudulent orders were placed resided along delivery routes
of Parcel Carrier employees who were complicit in the conspiracy.
7. It was further part of the conspiracy that the orders were placed
using stolen credit or debit card data of other individuals without such
individuals’ knowledge or authorization.
8. It was further part of the conspiracy that members of the
conspiracy, including defendants GREEN, DUFFAS, MALLETTE, PREHAY,
WELLINGTON, and WILSON provided information, often by text message,
about the parcels containing fraudulently-ordered equipment, such as the
addresses to which the equipment was being shipped or tracking numbers, to
other members of the conspiracy who were employed as drivers with the Parcel
Carrier, including defendants BROWN, COOPER and MICHEL. The
conspirators instructed the Drivers for the Parcel Carrier to divert the parcels
containing the fraudulently-ordered equipment, and promised to pay the
Drivers for delivering the equipment to other members of the conspiracy as
instructed.
9. It was further part of the conspiracy that in order to conceal their
diversion of the parcels, the Drivers, including defendants BROWN, COOPER
and MICHEL, marked the parcels “delivered” in the Parcel Carrier’s tracking
system, but in fact diverted those parcels to other members of the conspiracy,
including defendants DUFFAS, FORSYTHE, GENTLES, MALLETTE, PREHAY,
WELLINGTON, and WILSON.
6
10. It was further part of the conspiracy that, in cases where an
employee of the Parcel Carrier was not complicit in the scheme, members of the
conspiracy, including defendants GREEN and FORSYTHE, followed the Parcel
Carrier along the delivery route and attempted to obtain possession of the
parcel from the addressee to whom the parcel was delivered by claiming the
parcel had been mis-delivered.
11. It was further part of the conspiracy that the stolen equipment was
diverted from the mail stream in multiple locations, including New Jersey, New
York, and Connecticut, and shipped to other members of the conspiracy
located in Florida. The conspirators caused the Victim Company to ship
equipment via the Parcel Carrier in interstate commerce from its facilities
located outside of New Jersey to various addresses in New Jersey, New York,
Connecticut, and elsewhere.
12. It was further part of the conspiracy that the conspirators shared
in the proceeds generated through the fraud scheme by, among other things,
depositing funds in designated bank accounts, or sending proceeds via wire
transmission to other members of the conspiracy.
All in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 1349.
