Canadian accused in U.S. of stealing cash using sleight-of-hand techniques

  • A Canadian man, Mohsen Akbari, has been indicted in a U.S. federal court for stealing over $64,000 from more than 40 Walmart stores using sleight-of-hand methods.
  • Akbari entered the U.S. in March from South Korea on a visitor visa and traveled to various retail stores to steal cash between late March and July.
  • Akbari's alleged scheme involved making a small purchase, asking cashiers to show him $100 bills, and secretly pocketing some of them. He would then deposit the stolen money in a U.S. bank account and wire the funds to his Canadian bank accounts.
