A clerk at a Miami auto tag agency was arrested after the bust of a high-end chop shop uncovered a more than $3.3 million title fraud scheme, authorities said.

Katherine M. Vera Moran, 27, was arrested on 18 counts each of title fraud and official misconduct, the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office said Tuesday.

The investigation into Vera Moran dates back to January, when Doral Police officers investigating a stolen car found it pinging inside the bay of a local auto shop.

    She commits all this fraud, and yet she needs an interpreter at the court hearing. Trust me, she knows a lot of English.

    Just a tiny fish,she's only a scapegoat. $800-$1000 per document,there's got to be a bigger fish in the pool!
  • @Shadowx157
    1k each is ridiculous, it should have been at least 2 to 3,000 each
  • They should investigate the owners of the agency, I can't believe the owners were not aware of her activity.
  • @CMe-bk5ez
    There’s no amount of money worth forfeiting your freedom and certainly not for the minuscule amount of $18K-$20K.
  • She is no master mind. Her boss, boyfriend and co workers are all in on this.
