Man Steals Millions From Government and Companies—How Did He Get Away with It?

So, there’s this guy, Kyle Eugene Duncan-Carle, who thought it would be totally fine to steal millions from the US government. Because, you know, who wouldn’t want to swipe Treasury checks and impersonate other people to get some sweet cash? 🙄

At 41, Duncan-Carle was living the dream… just not the legal one. He managed to get himself 72 months in prison after he admitted to, *wait for it*, defrauding the government and a bunch of companies out of a whole lot of money. But hey, a little jail time never hurt anyone, right?

From January to September 2023, Kyle was busy playing identity thief, stealing Treasury checks meant for others, and then using their identities to open credit union accounts. Because nothing says “good idea” like pretending to be someone else to score a payday. 💸

In total, the man managed to snatch at least eight Treasury checks, adding up to $7.97 million. A true artist, if you will, but with a criminal twist. 🎨

At the end of the day, the victims—who included the US government, financial institutions, and even an insurance provider—were left holding the bag with a whopping $3.49 million in losses. Ouch. 🏦

In addition to his 72-month vacation in prison, Duncan-Carle will have five years of supervised release, because who doesn’t want more of him after his stint behind bars? Oh, and he has to pay back all the victims. Good luck with that! 🙃

The man was arrested last year in Lyon County, Nevada, and charged with a variety of fun crimes, including bank fraud, aggravated identity theft, and receiving stolen government property. Because why do one crime when you can do several? 🤷‍♀️
