Former Basketball Wives and Marriage Boot Camp star Brittish Williams was arrested on multiple federal fraud charges yesterday.
The reality TV star was indicted at the end of September for allegedly using fake Social Security numbers in 2017 to receive loans and lines of credit. Williams is also accused of depositing four fraudulent checks, in 2018 and 2019, and withdrawing the funds before the checks bounced. Prosecutors claim the owners of the checks, valued between $4,500 and $5,800, were unaware of the deposits. Between 2017 and 2019, Williams allegedly claimed dependents on her tax returns by using fake names and Social Security numbers.
Brittish Williams, who appeared on reality shows with her ex-fiance and professional basketball player Lorenzo Gordon, has been charged with five felony charges of misuse of a Social Security number, four charges of bank fraud, three charges of making false statements to the IRS, three charges of wire fraud, and three charges of aggravated identity theft. She has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
