Miami resident Edwin Jim Garcia-Albarracin, 45, allegedly filed fraudulent claims for"purportedly damaged packages" sold through his online business, Rambos Market, stating that they were damaged when they were shipped through the U.S. Postal Service, according to a federal indictment filed in the Southern District of Florida earlier this month.Garcia-Albarracin sold a variety of products through online marketplaces such as Listia and eBay, according to the court documents.

He would then allegedly wire funds from one bank account to another, with the transactions designed"to conceal and disguise the nature, location, source, ownership, and control of the proceeds of the specified unlawful activity," according to the charging documents.Garcia-Albarracin allegedly carried out his crimes between July 2016 and November 2019, according to the indictment.

The five-bedroom, four-bathroom Miami townhouse is listed in Garcia-Albarracin's name and sold in October 2019 for $380,000, online property records show.
