A Michigan man has pleaded guilty to fraud and money laundering in a scheme to acquire more than 9,000 replacement iPod Shuffle music players.
The twenty-three-year-old man of the Kalamazoo area appeared in federal court in Grand Rapids on Monday, less than a month after charges were filed.
The fraudster had an iPod repair shop and knew that owners could get a replacement if their Shuffle had problems. He guessed valid serial numbers and entered them into Apple's website. He then resold the iPod Shuffles shipped by Apple.
