A woman from Missouri has been arrested by the Justice Department for allegedly attempting to defraud Elvis Presley's family. Lisa Jeanine Findley, 53, of Kimberling City, Missouri, is accused of organizing a fraudulent scheme involving a fake private lender and bogus loan documents to try and auction off Presley's Graceland mansion. Findley impersonated multiple parties related to the fake lender, created false loan paperwork, and attempted to extort $2.85 million from Presley's family. This all culminated in a fake foreclosure notice being published in a Memphis newspaper announcing the auction of Graceland. The historic mansion, which opened as a museum in 1982 and remains a popular tourist attraction, is owned by Elvis Presley Enterprises. The arrest took place on the 47th anniversary of Presley's death. Findley, who used various aliases, did not have a listed attorney in court documents, and attempts to reach her via phone and email were unsuccessful. The elaborate scheme to sell off Graceland using fabricated identities and documents puzzled experts.In May, a public notice was issued for a foreclosure sale of the 13-acre (5-hectare) estate belonging to the Graceland museum, controlled by the Promenade Trust, which owes $3.8 million from a 2018 loan that was not repaid. Following the passing of Lisa Marie Presley last year, her daughter, Riley Keough, inherited the trust and ownership of the property. Keough filed a fraud lawsuit, alleging that Naussany Investments and Private Lending claimed that Presley used Graceland as collateral for the loan, which she denies ever doing. The lawsuit further claimed that Naussany submitted falsified documents related to the loan in September 2023. A notary named Kimberly Philbrick, whose name appeared on Naussany's documents, stated that she had no knowledge of Lisa Marie Presley or ever notarizing any documents for her. Judge Jenkins expressed doubts about the authenticity of the signature after reviewing the notary's affidavit. The foreclosure sale of Graceland was temporarily halted in May by the judge due to concerns that the auction might be fraudulent. The Tennessee attorney general's office initially investigated the Graceland situation and later handed the case over to federal authorities in June. Naussany, the company involved in the foreclosure sale, announced that they would not proceed due to legal complexities, as key documents and the loan were registered in a different state, requiring legal action in multiple states. An email, alleged to be from the same address as court documents, claimed in Spanish on May 25 that the foreclosure sale attempt was orchestrated by a Nigerian fraud group that targets elderly and deceased individuals.The individual in the United States utilizes the Internet to unlawfully obtain money.
