A St. Louis woman's attempt to sell a watch on eBay has led to
deportation back to Russia.
Olena Chrona pleaded guilty Friday to misuse of a Social Security number.
Federal prosecutors say Chrona used an alias to set up a bank account in
St. Louis to collect more than $25,000 from the fraudulent sale of a
watch.
Bank employees caught the 23-year-old when she tried transferring the
money to an account in Russia.
