BOSTON — Four New Hampshire men were charged earlier this month in federal court with setting up fake companies to steal more than $500,000 from their Wilmington, Mass., business.
Donald G. Wilson Jr. of Chester, Russell Lecaroz Jr. of Londonderry, Anthony Lopez of Sandown, and James Plourde, formerly of Danville, all have been charged with interstate transportation of stolen property.
The indictment states that Lopez used his position as an accountant with NER Construction Management Inc. to send money through seven fictitious companies set up by the men.
The four men then agreed to share the money after they deposited the checks, totaling $534,500, in banks in Plaistow and Hampstead.
All of the transactions took place between Jan. 1, 2003 and March 10, 2005, according to the indictment.
According to the indictment, the proceeds from the plot are currently being sought from the men.
