OLATHE, Kan. (AP) — Three women indicted in a case involving about $7.7 million in fraudulent mortgages have been accused of using the Social Security numbers of dead people to help illegal immigrants get home loans.
Officials said the case also involves more than $100,000 in illegally obtained real estate fees.
The Johnson County grand jury this week indicted Doris Toledo, 67, and her two daughters, Sonia Toledo, 38, and Sylvia Toledo, 42, all of Leawood. They were charged with 11 counts of computer crimes, 11 counts of making a false writing and one count of theft by deception.
Sonia Toledo was identified as a loan officer at an Olathe mortgage company. The other two women also worked in the real estate industry. All were being held in the Johnson County jail on $100,000 bond each.
The indictments also alleged that the women were involved in a conspiracy of repeatedly telling illegal immigrants they could use false documents to obtain Social Security numbers to obtain mortgage loans to buy homes.
