The Loudoun County Sheriff's Office says an Ashburn woman indicted for mortgage fraud has been arrested in Turkey.
Authorities say 42-year-old Diane Frederick Atari was apprehended Wednesday after local officials contacted INTERPOL for assistance. She is in a Turkish prison awaiting extradition.
Atari is charged with inflating the income of clients and fraudulently fixing their credit so they could buy homes they couldn't afford.
The loss on the fraudulent mortgages is estimated at $50 million and the sheriff's office said she made more than $1 million in the scheme.
