2 Norwegian Fugitives Flaunt Traveling Spree
January 04, 1986|By United Press International.
Norwegian police said Friday they are seeking an escaped convict and his friend who have run up more than $100,000 in illegal credit-card charges during a round-the-world spree.
The pair, whose unpaid airline and luxury hotel expenses so far total more than 1 million kroner, worth $132,000, have added insult to injury by sending prison officials picture postcards from vacation spots such as Trinidad and Rio de Janeiro.
Police said Oystein Christiansen, 29, planned the fraud while he was in prison for drug trafficking. He registered a fake business firm, hired a friend, Per Wold, as the company`s president and opened a bank account.
The two then paid enough money into the account to enable them to get American Express, Diners Club and Eurocard credit cards.
The plot was put into action three months ago when Christiansen failed to return to prison after being allowed to go home on temporary leave.
Oslo Prison Governor Gordon Gabrielsen instead received a postcard from Trinidad saying: Having a whale of a time. I needed a holiday now. See you soon.
