Amanda Smith was arrested in Pennsylvania on a warrant from Arkansas and jailed for three nights after a scammer used a Cash App account opened in her name, with her Social Security number and birth date, to swindle someone out of $1,000. She was extradited, fingerprinted, and hit with $70,000 in combined bail, and now faces up to six years in prison on charges including computer fraud, despite saying she has never used Cash App. Cash App initially would not share account details with her because she could not prove ownership of an account she says was never hers; she eventually obtained records through court discovery.
