When people this stupid, this moronic, can steal $4 million from taxpayers, Houston, we have a problem

Brooklyn gang scammed $4 million from COVID relief funds, and were caught, it seems, only because they boasted about it on social media.

Nearly a dozen men associated with the Brooklyn-based Woo gang were charged by Thursday with allegedly stealing more than $4 million in COVID-19 relief cash — and boasting about the scam in a music video, the feds said. 

The 11 suspects – nine of whom live in Brooklyn – used personal information, including driver’s license numbers, from 800 people to submit unemployment claims worth about $20 million, according to a criminal complaint against them. 

The gang members were able to fleece some $4.3 million from the unemployment program between March 2020 and October 2021 as part of the scam, the feds said. 

A number of the suspects allegedly flashed stacks of the cash on social media – and made reference to the scam in a rap video for the song “Trappin,” according to the complaint unsealed in the Eastern District of New York Thursday.
