A Kaneohe Bay Marine has been accused of stealing more than $1,000 from five comrades deployed to Iraq by illegally obtained access to their credit, police said.

Marine Cpl. Daniel M. Alfieri, 28, who served two tours in Iraq with some of the Marines, applied for more than a dozen credit cards after illegally obtaining Social Security numbers, addresses and other information, police said.

He allegedly stole more than $1,000 in cash and goods before military investigators were alerted to his activities. He stole some of the Marines’ identities while he was with them in Iraq and some after he returned and they were still deployed.

Alfieri, who holds a degree in international studies from Syracuse University, stole some of the Marines’ mail in Hawaii when he knew they were deployed, police said.

He allegedly acquired the credit cards and stole the money in July, August and September 2007.
