JENNIFER ANISTON, ANNE HATHAWAY ROBBERY HORROR

JENNIFER ANISTON, Anne Hathaway and Liv Tyler were among a string of celebrity clients ripped off by the owner of a swanky Beverly Hills beauty salon. The owner of the upmarket Chez Gabriela Studio,  Maria Gabriella Perez (aka. Maria Gabriela Hashemipour) admitted to running up hundreds of thousands of dollars in fraudulent credit card charges of her celebrity clients. She was caught after running up approximately $68,000 in unauthorized charges on a credit card belonging to high-end jewelry designer Loree Rodkin, who later identified Jennifer Aniston, Liv Tyler, Melanie Griffith, Cher, Anne Hathaway and Scott Speedman as also being taken in by the
scam.
In January of this year, 52-year-old Perez plead guilty to the charges of fraud, admitting that most of the charges were made from when the numbers from the credit card were entered manually, meaning that the card was not "swiped."
She was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Manuel Real to five years' probation, during which she is required to serve nine months' home confinement and perform 3,000 hours of community service.
