SOUTHWEST MIAMI-DADE, FLA. (WSVN) - A 26-year-old Miami man has been arrested after investigators said videos showed him promoting bank fraud while displaying cash, firearms and victims’ personal information.
Investigators identified the suspect as Lazaro Lesteiro-Diaz, who performs under the aliases “Drakula” and “YungLazz.” Authorities said they began investigating after reviewing videos in which he allegedly described bank “spoofing” schemes while showing what appeared to be victims’ personally identifiable information on a laptop, stacks of cash and firearms.
According to the arrest report, investigators observed multiple videos in June and July in which Lesteiro-Diaz allegedly explained how fraudulent bank spoofing and account takeover schemes work.
In one livestream, authorities said he displayed a Glock-style handgun with an extended magazine, cash, suspected promethazine and a laptop screen containing victims’ personal information.
