On Thursday, Israeli and US citizen Samuel (Sam) Galli was extradited for prosecution for conspiracy to commit fraud, forging an odometer in some 690 vehicles and money laundering.

At the extradition request filed by the State Attorney's Office between October 2006 and July 2011, in Pennsylvania and New York, the wanted man and his brother engaged in a large-scale fraud, in which they purchased used vehicles called fictitious car dealerships and falsified the vehicles, Sip a smaller distance than the actual one. The two then sold the vehicles at auctions, and for the completion of the sale, forged different data in the vehicles' ownership notes.

According to US authorities, the total damage caused by the fraud case is about $ 4,158,000.

Galli was arrested more than six months ago, on May 21, 2019, at the request of the United States, and the International State Attorney's Office filed a petition with the US District Court in Jerusalem to declare him extraditable to the United States. About two months ago, Galey agreed to the announcement and today, as mentioned, was extradited to the US.
