A Florida man was sentenced Thursday to 32 months in prison for conspiracy to commit credit card fraud and aggravated identify theft, U.S. Attorney Halsey B. Frank said in a news release.

U.S. District Court by Chief Judge Nancy Torreson also ordered Jose Castillo Febles of Doral, Florida, to undergo three years of supervised release.

Febles, 31, also must pay more than $25,000 in restitution.

Febles used stolen credit card and debit card numbers to purchase merchandise between November 2015 and June 2016, court records show. Febles traveled to Maine in May 2016 and purchased $500 of merchandise from a Portland Walgreens using a credit card stolen from an Auburn victim, Frank said.

Febles pleaded guilty to the charges on Aug. 25, 2017.
