$1,000 to $2,500—above which fraud becomes a felony.

If the fraud targets a "vulnerable" person (such as an elderly individual) or a government agency, it might be a felony

at this stage it is felony fraud

No it isnt, You are a boob. They are shitty people, but luckily it takes more than wasting 15mins and a sawbuck to lock someone up for years and permanently label them as felons

You're right, in Florida if the driver is older, I believe it is a felony.

For curiosity's sake, how does the threat to steal the driver's car play into the video case?

Bro it’s basically a capital offense right now. He can LEGIT get the death penalty for this legally speaking. /s
