Frankfort Sybaris Worker Who Stole Credit Card Number & Bought Boots Arrested: Cops

The Frankfort man surrendered to the police Tuesday.

A Sybaris worker who stole a customer's credit card number to buy a pair of boots surrendered to the Frankfort cops Tuesday, police said.

Ivan Villegas, 22, of 7504 Hickory Creek Drive in Frankfort was arrested on a charge of identity theft. Villegas was released from custody after posting bond.

Villegas stole a credit card number from a Sybaris guest, said Frankfort Deputy Police Chief Kevin Keegan. The criminal complaint against Villegas said he used the woman's MasterCard information on Dec. 13 "to fraudulently obtain boots."

Keegas said Villegas made the footwear purchase online.

A Sybaris representative contacted Tuesday night that Villegas no longer works at the West Lincoln Highway "romantic paradise."
