Authorities arrested a 53-year-old Missouri woman on Friday for allegedly attempting to defraud Elvis Presley’s family out of millions of dollars.

Lisa Jeanine Findley was charged with mail fraud and aggravated identity theft. She was behind the plot that put Graceland up for foreclosure in May, according to a press release from the U.S. Department of Justice.

“As alleged in the complaint, the defendant orchestrated a scheme to conduct a fraudulent sale of Graceland, falsely claiming that Elvis Presley’s daughter had pledged the historic landmark as collateral for a loan that she failed to repay before her death,” said Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Nicole M. Argentieri, head of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. “As part of the brazen scheme, we allege that the defendant created numerous false documents and sought to extort a settlement from the Presley family. Now she is facing federal charges. The Criminal Division and its partners are committed to holding fraudsters to account.”
