After getting access to Kardashian’s credit cards and social security number, Flores changed her accounts into his accounts. After ordering replacement cards to his address, Flores was discovered.
Kardashian is not the first celebrity Flores has tried to steal from. After gaining access to Kardashian’s mother, Kris Jenner’s accounts, Flores transferred $71,000 from Jenner’s account into his own account according to a href= http://www.tmz.com/2014/02/01/kim-kardashian-identity-thief-setenced-prison/> TMZ .
