I have to admit, that guy was pretty clever to have used serious effort concealing his fraudulent activity. Unfortunately for him, it was only a matter of time before the police found out...

At least he'll have a chance to say "Hello" to Hibiki-chan while in the slammer. Laughing

Apparently he didn't watch enough police shows/movies other wise he'd have known there's just no escaping the long arm of the law. Embarassed

I don't know much about the IDOLM@STER characters, but that picture on the left definitely looks like the sort of character who would make some kind of elaborate mail fraud scheme. Or just general Bart Simpson-esque mischief.

I suppose so. Is that Hibiki depicted on the left in the article?

If it was only that simple. If you are celebrity or rich, you could pay/do enough bribing to get only community service. If I was a judge, I don't care if you are rich or not, you are going to serve hard time.
