The FBI is on it!
The guy in the story below is a close friend of a relative and attended his trial every day.
Way before Trump he maintained the Feds set up his friend . I followed it at the time and it sure looks like it.

12 years and $31 million in restitution.
From the article..
“Talens, who has a background in marketing and strong computer design skills, was able to counterfeit coupons for “almost any grocery or drug store product and to make it for whatever value off she wanted,” federal authorities said. Designs on her seized computer allowed her to create fake coupons for some 13,000 products, according to the FBI.”
She also sold the coupons on social media, making $400,000 over three years.

If it were in San Francisco it would be OK as long as no coupons were over $950.

"Virginia Woman", sort of like "Minnesota Man"
When the MSM reports "Minnesota Man", they really mean "Somalian".

The guy in the story below is a close friend of a relative and attended his trial every day.The case against him seems pretty cut and dried. What does he claim was the setup?

I wonder what you would get for a bottle deposit scam using mail trucks?

She was sentenced to more than 12 years in prison.
The modern-day Frank Abagnale — whose check fraud scam was highlighted in Steven Spielberg’s “Catch Me If You Can” — was also ordered to pay $31.8 million in restitution at her September sentencing.

She clearly has a talent for marketing and finding the right people to grow her system for her.
These must be mostly online coupons.
What a shame she used those skills in a criminal way.
Security industries could learn from her on how to spot counterfeit documents more quickly.
She probably enjoys the thrill of stealing too much to ever change. When she is released, look out!

If she is robbing woke companies the sentence should commuted, expunged, and a parade thrown in her honor!

It is not a crime to drive them broke. Woke is evil. Evil must be opposed. This is one way.
