The Broward Sheriff’s Office has arrested two attorneys who allegedly defrauded victims out of nearly $750,000 over two years as part of a sophisticated fraud involving foreclosed real estate.
The two attorneys, Rashida Overby, 46, and Ria Sankar-Balram, 40, each have their own private practices, with the former in Tamarac and the latter in Margate. They are facing several charges, including an organized scheme to defraud, grand theft and money laundering, according to the Broward Sheriff’s Office.
