Two New Jersey men are admitting their roles in a conspiracy to steal checks from the mail and engaging in check washing in order to cash out.<\/p>\n

The operation targeted USPS collection boxes in Livingston and Clifton using stolen postal keys and caused financial institutions to lose $670,313.46, according<\/a> to the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office, District of New Jersey<\/p>\n

Leslie Blackwood, 25, of Irvington, entered his guilty plea in Newark federal court on Wednesday to conspiracy to steal checks from the mail.<\/p>\n

His accomplice, Verly Antenor, 24, of Roselle Park, had previously pleaded guilty to the same charge.<\/p>\n

According to the prosecution, stolen or misappropriated keys to gain access to USPS\u2019 collection boxes.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo profit from the scheme, Blackwood and Antenor sold, deposited, or caused to be deposited the stolen checks to fraudulently obtain funds from financial institutions. Blackwood and Antenor sometimes \u201cwashed\u201d the stolen checks by erasing the date, payee, amount, and memo line from the stolen checks and replacing the information, oftentimes for higher amounts than the amounts originally written on the checks.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The men worked with others from 2021 to 2022, depositing the checks at various banks and sometimes washing them to raise the amounts.<\/p>\n

Antenor is scheduled for sentencing on Dec. 17 while Blackwood will be sentenced on Feb. 16, 2027. The charges stemming from the conspiracy to commit mail theft could see each of the two individuals facing up to
\nfive years in prison and a fine of up to a quarter of a million dollars.<\/p>\n
