After allegedly stealing more than $700,000 worth of products from Nu Skin and selling them online, three Utah County residents were charged Friday with theft and conspiracy to commit theft.

From April 2009 until his arrest Thursday, Scott Lazerson was receiving stolen products from Nu Skin employees in Provo, court documents say. With Elizabeth Craig and Brady Harper, Lazerson stored products in a storage shed in Orem and sold them on eBay. Craig and Harper used their personal PayPal accounts to process the payments.

Craig and Harper told authorities they were making $20,000 to $30,000 a month in sales since they began last April. When police searched the storage shed Wednesday, they recovered 415 boxes of Nu Skin products, valued at more than $500,000.

Nu Skin Representative Kara Schneck said Lazerson was a Nu Skin employee from 1994 until 1995 but worked only part time. Schneck said Craig and Harper were not employees.
