They had a formula for making money.
Cops have charged a Brooklyn couple with using phony credit cards to buy more than $100,000 worth of Enfamil baby formula from a wholesale chain and shipping it to China.
Zhao Rong, 26, and Chen Xun, 31, used different CitiÂBank credit cards to buy the formula from various BJ’s Wholesale outlets.
But store workers got suspicious when the purchases were made with the same BJ’s membership card.
BJ’s and the bank alerted the NYPD’s new citywide grand-larceny unit. The next time the membership card was used, the unit caught up with the couple at a BJ’s in The Bronx.
There, Zhao and Chen loaded up on Enfamil, paid for it with a phony credit card, and headed to JFK Airport, where they were busted before they could ship the formula to China, police said.
