Woman accused of posing as Eagles Autism Foundation employee in ticket scam, police say
A Schuylkill Haven woman is facing theft and related charges after investigators allege she posed as an employee of the Eagles Autism Foundation to sell discounted Philadelphia Eagles tickets that never existed.
Kaitlyn Marie Faust, 28, is charged with five misdemeanor counts each of theft by deception, theft by unlawful taking and receiving stolen property, in connection with what authorities described as a multi-victim fraud scheme spanning several Montgomery County municipalities.
The investigation involved the Lower Providence Township Police Department, Pennsylvania State Police Skippack barracks, Bridgeport Police Department and Upper Merion Township Police Department.
Allegations centered on Eagles Autism Foundation affiliation
According to the affidavit of probable cause, victims were told Faust worked for the Eagles Autism Foundation and could secure discounted tickets to Eagles games, with proceeds purportedly benefiting the foundation.
In one case investigated by state police, a Worcester Township woman sent Faust $750 via Apple Cash and Apple Pay in July and August 2025 for three tickets to an Eagles game. After payment, the victim began receiving emails from someone identifying herself as “Brooke Myers” at [email protected], who claimed to work alongside Faust at the foundation and said the tickets would be released through a ticket portal. The tickets were never delivered.
Investigators contacted the Eagles Autism Foundation’s operations and events staff, who confirmed there were no employees by the names Kaitlyn Faust or Brooke Myers, the affidavit states
Similar complaints surfaced in Bridgeport and Upper Merion. In those cases, victims reported sending hundreds of dollars through Cash App for Eagles tickets and field passes after seeing Facebook posts advertising tickets to benefit the foundation. Like the first victim, they received follow-up emails from “Brooke Myers” promising Ticketmaster transfers, but never received tickets.
Lower Providence victims among those targeted
Lower Providence Township police documented at least two local victims.
In one case, a township resident sent $170 via Apple Pay for two tickets to an Eagles-Broncos game after Faust allegedly represented herself through text messages as an Eagles Autism Foundation employee. The victim told police he was given repeated excuses over more than a month regarding delays and refunds but never received tickets.
In a separate Lower Providence case, another resident reported paying $170 via Apple Pay for two Eagles tickets after Faust reached out directly by text message offering seats for sale. That victim also never received tickets, according to the affidavit
Email account traced to defendant’s phone, residence
The affidavit details an interview with Faust’s former boyfriend, who told investigators she claimed to work directly with Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie and Kylie Kelce. He said their relationship ended as a result of the alleged ticket scheme.
During an October 2025 interview, Faust told police she believed she herself had been scammed by a woman named “Rebecca Murphy” on Facebook Marketplace who allegedly provided her with the tickets to sell. However, investigators noted she never received any documentation confirming employment with the Eagles Autism Foundation and admitted she facilitated ticket sales through Facebook and accepted payments via Apple Pay and Cash App.
Police said Faust allowed them to examine her phone, which matched the number provided by all victims. Investigators found no communications with “Rebecca Murphy” on the device. They also obtained search warrants for the Gmail account used by “Brooke Myers.”
According to the affidavit, Google records showed the email account was accessed from an Apple iPhone 15 matching Faust’s device model. Comcast records tied IP addresses accessing the account to Faust’s residence in Schuylkill Haven and to her former boyfriend’s address in King of Prussia
Investigators also documented internet searches on Faust’s phone including “Eagles autism foundation ticket scam,” “How to know if cops are investigating you,” “Theft by deception,” and “If you pay someone back after a police report what happens,” the affidavit states.
Eagles organization confirms no affiliation
Authorities confirmed with representatives from the Eagles Autism Foundation, the “Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce” podcast and the Philadelphia Eagles organization that Faust, “Rebecca Murphy” and “Brooke Myers” were never employed by those entities
Investigators allege Faust deceived victims into believing their payments would benefit the foundation while securing legitimate access to Eagles games. Some victims were reportedly refunded after police reports were filed.
Faust has a preliminary hearing Feb. 24 before Magisterial District Judge Cathleen Rebar.
She is free on $7,500 unsecured bail, decreased upon agreement from $75,000 unsecured bail, per court records. Faust is represented by Media-based attorney Wana Saadzoi.
All suspects and defendants are innocent until proven guilty. This story was compiled using public court records.
