Their modus operandi involved stealing cell phones and wallets, aiming to \u200cgain access \u2063to Apple Pay and Cash App applications, subsequently making\u200d unauthorized purchases using the victims&#8217; credit cards or \u2063bank-connected phones.<\/p>\n<p>The Arrest:<\/p>\n<p>Law enforcement authorities\u200d executed a search warrant \u200bat a suspected safe house in the Bronx, leading \u2063to the detention of the\u2064 three migrants.
