Authorities Capture Grandmotherly 'Master Conwoman'

Thursday November 25, 2004
Lost another loan to deception: Florida law enforcement officials say it was 67-year-old Eva Patrick Verner's grandmotherly appearance that helped her steal someone else's identity and convince lending companies to give her more than $2.5 million in mortgages on property that she did not own. She was captured in a motel in Georgia as she was shopping for horse farms with her new-found wealth.
