Woman in Dubai cheats neighbours by using their IDs


(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) A woman has been charged with forgery and fraud for allegedly misusing others' national ID cards to avail of Etisalat services worth Dh28,500

The 33-year-old Jordanian woman forged her neighbours' Emirates ID cards to obtain SIM cards to make phone calls, the Court of First Instance has heard.

The accused did not attend the hearing at the Court of First Instance in the case that dates back to 2013.

The defendant's neighbour, a 39-year-old Egyptian housewife, said that the accused borrowed her ID card, telling her she did not carry one and needed to receive some money transfer.

But later she learnt that her card was used by the accused to apply for Etisalat phone numbers in her name, incurring her Dh21,000 in bills.

A second complainant from Sudan, 43, claimed the accused managed to convince her to hand her over her ID card for some charity work.

"I learnt from Etisalat later about a bill worth Dh7,500 was due on Sim cards issued in my name".

Another Egyptian woman also said in the investigation that the defendant managed to get her ID copy.

The next hearing will be held on August 11.
