Some fraud involves luxuries.  Some involves bounce houses.

 

 

A 30-year-old woman in Iowa named Shanyce Hill was arrested, after she charged around $1,350 on a stolen credit card . . . to rent BOUNCE HOUSES.

 

 

Police say she ordered “bouncy houses” for Father’s Day and the Fourth of July, both for parties that involved children at a park. For at least one of the parties, the inflatable was described as a “castle.”  It sounds like she was using multiple stolen card numbers.

 

 

At first, Shanyce denied buying the bounce houses . . . but the company has records that link her email and phone number to the orders.  Also, she did not return the generator that they provided her with the rental after one event.

 

 

It’s unclear where she got the credit card numbers, but she may have bought or obtained them online . . . because one of her victims still has their physical card.

 

 

She is free on $6,000 bond . . . assuming she doesn’t JUMP bail.  (HI-YO!)
