Four men have accepted plea agreements in Seattle in a case involving the theft of credit cards from locker rooms.

Four men have accepted plea agreements in Seattle in a case involving the theft of credit cards from locker rooms.

Gabriel K. Jang of Renton pleaded guilty today in U.S. District Court in Seattle to four charges — conspiracy to commit bank and wire fraud, access device fraud, aggravated identity theft and structuring currency transactions. He faces sentencing Dec. 4.

Three others pleaded guilty to reduced charges earlier and also await sentencing.

Government lawyers write that the group stole credit cards from gym lockers in Washington state, Oregon and as far as Georgia. The cards were then used at retail stores buy iPods and computers which Jang sold on the Internet site eBay.

Investigators found that he got more than $3 million between 2001 and his arrest last Nov. 20.
