Four people have been charged in an alleged multi-million dollar fraud scheme targeting a San Francisco delivery company, federal officials said.

All four suspects were arrested on Friday in the Bay Area, Southern California and Texas following a federal grand jury indictment filed August 7 and unsealed Friday, according to a press statement from Ismail Ramsey, U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of California. Matheus Duarte, 29, was arrested in Mountain House, San Joaquin County, and was released on bond after making his initial appearance in San Jose.

The complaint says that the defendants created fake customer and driver accounts the delivery company's platform and used the fake accounts to order items for delivery. The complaint also says defendants used insider access to the company's computer systems to assign the orders to the fake driver accounts, and manipulated the computer systems to cause company to pay the fraudulent driver accounts as if the orders had been delivered hundreds of times.
