RECYCLING FRAUD SCHEME: 6 people have been charged with recycling fraud and grand theft for allegedly driving more than 9 tons of bottles of cans from Arizona to redeem them for cash in Los Angeles and Ontario.
Six people have been charged in a $10 million recycling fraud scheme that involved bringing more than nine tons of cans and bottles from Arizona, in order to recycle them for money in Los Angeles and Ontario.
The program from CalRecycle is subsidized by California consumers every time they buy a CRV-eligible bottle or can, and pays up to 10 cents per container when they're brought in for recycling. Only bottles and cans from California are eligible for redemption under this program, the Attorney General's Office said.
