A McDonald's staff member was caught after using the credit cards of her customers in an online shopping spree to buy shoes, food, clothes and electronics.

Pjstar reveals that 23-year-old Ericka Hendon who worked at the McDonald's located in Peoria Heights was arrested after allegedly stealing 21 identities from the customers who unknowingly handed over a credit card.

She is now charged with 21 counts of identity theft and deceptive practice, 17 counts of misdemeanor theft and four counts of felony theft.

That's a lot of theft for someone that young.

People who visited the location between September 15 and October 30 are advised to keep a close eye on their bank accounts and report any suspicious transactions to their financial institution and the police.
