“#USPS worker steals credit card on her mail route for surgery<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

A USPS worker allegedly swiped credit cards from customers on her Queens route \u2014 then used the stolen plastic for a breast lift, officials said.<\/p>\n

Shakera Small, 30, was arraigned Wednesday night in Queens Criminal Court on charges of identity theft, grand larceny and other raps for which she faces up to seven years in prison. She was released without bail.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe crime alleged here was a betrayal of the public trust and an insult to the thousands and thousands of hardworking postal employees who do their jobs with integrity,\u201d said Queens DA Melinda Katz in a statement. <\/p>\n

Small allegedly used a forged Connecticut license bearing the name of Christine Petrow to book a breast-lift consultation at Long Island Plastic Surgery in Suffolk County. <\/p>\n

On August 30, 2019, she forked over the victim\u2019s stolen business card to pay the $8,000 balance before undergoing the breast procedure four days later, the complaint charges.<\/p>\n

The next month, the victim, a local business owner, received his Chase credit card statement in the mail and discovered the eyepopping charge.<\/p>\n

After he reported the fraud, a US Postal Inspector launched an investigation and obtained records from Long Island Plastic Surgery \u2014 including a pre-operative photo of Small, according to prosecutors.<\/p>\n

The photo was shown to Small\u2019s boss at the Rochdale Village Post Office who confirmed her real identity. The phone number Small provided to the clinic was also registered to her real name.<\/p>\n

During an interview with investigators, the mailwoman allegedly admitted to regularly stealing envelopes she knew had credit cards in them and handing them over to a man named Rizzo, court papers allege.<\/p>\n

In exchange, Rizzo obtained the fake ID to help her undergo the breast lift. <\/p>\n

Small\u2019s attorney David Strachan and USPS didn\u2019t immedia<\/a>tely return requests for comment.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
