South Carolina Drug Bust Finds Identity Theft Ring

A drug raid in Lexington County, South Carolina turned up a major identity theft ring. While seizing 11 pounds of cocaine, authorities discovered a counterfeiting operation. The identity theft ring was making counterfeit social security cards based on stolen social security numbers.

While authorities did not indicate what the ring did with the cards, most likely, they were used as false identification for illegal immigrants seeking work in the United States.
