CHARLOTTE — Federal agents are working to seize two properties owned by a North Carolina woman after she was accused of committing healthcare fraud.
In the civil forfeiture documents, the FBI is seeking the forfeiture of two Charlotte properties: One in a neighborhood on Coves Edge Lane, which the woman bought in May 2022, and the second in a neighborhood on Wild Nursery Court, which the woman bought in October 2022.
According to investigators, the two properties were acquired by “unlawful activity” — specifically healthcare fraud and wire fraud.
Authorities believe the woman fraudulently billed an insurance company for services she didn’t provide and/or wasn’t authorized to provide. Investigators said she submitted more than $7 million in fraudulent claims and the insurance company paid her more than $4.2 million.
