A man and his son are facing charges after allegedly chasing a FedEx driver and shooting a gun at his vehicle.
Gregory Charles Case and his son Brandon live in Brookhaven, Mississippi.
On the evening of January 24, Gregory and his son were at home when a FedEx vehicle was temporarily left in their driveway while the driver made a delivery.
Two arrests were made after the authorities allegedly traced FedEx packages containing $81,000 to a suspect reportedly wrongfully charging people money for removing viruses from their computers.
Last Thursday, the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office reportedly received a call from a person who wished to remain anonymous. The caller, who asserted that they were the victim, reported a situation involving the elderly New Jersey resident being scammed out of money. The person said they thought they had sent $11,000 to someone who called to inform them that they had a computer virus and would remove it for a fee, but after mailing the money they suspected they had been scammed.
When the authorities investigated the claim they reportedly uncovered details that appeared to coincide with those that the caller had given. It was allegedly found that someone who was offering their services to remove computer viruses was using FedEx shipments as a means of accepting payment.
