San Francisco Man Charged with Defrauding Apple of $2.5 Million in Gift Cards and Products

San Francisco Man Charged with Defrauding Apple of $2.5 Million in Gift Cards and Products

February 8, 2024 By Peter Leave a Comment

A San Francisco man named Noah Roskin-Frazee has been charged with defrauding Apple out of approximately $2.5 million worth of gift cards and products. This information was revealed in a security update from Apple on January 22, which came about two weeks after Roskin-Frazee's arrest. The details of the case were reported by CourtWatch and 404 Media, who obtained the unsealed indictment.

Recognition in Apple's Security Update

It remains unclear why Noah Roskin-Frazee was specifically acknowledged in Apple's security update, and the company has not provided any comment regarding the matter. However, according to the report from CourtWatch and 404 Media, Roskin-Frazee is a security researcher who had previously reported issues to Apple. This may explain his mention in the update.

The Indictment and Charges

The indictment, filed in December 2023 by the US Attorney in San Francisco, charges Noah Roskin-Frazee and a co-defendant with various counts, including fraud and intentionally damaging a protected computer. Prosecutors allege a complex scheme involving the two defendants, where they used a password reset function to gain unauthorized access to the account of an employee who dealt with Apple customers. They would then modify orders for items such as gift cards and devices. In some instances, they altered the orders to have a value of $0 or redirected gift cards to fake addresses, which were later resold.

According to the indictment, the defendants managed to obtain approximately $2.5 million worth of products, services, and gift cards through this fraudulent scheme.

Apple's Involvement

Although Apple is not explicitly mentioned in the indictment, details provided by CourtWatch and 404 Media suggest that the company is the target of the charges. The indictment states that the company is headquartered in Cupertino, California, and is involved in the development, manufacturing, licensing, support, and sale of computer software, consumer electronics, personal computers, and services.

No Comment from Roskin-Frazee's Attorneys

Business Insider reached out to Noah Roskin-Frazee's attorneys for comment, but they did not respond. The case is ongoing, and further developments are expected in the future.
