CAMDEN, N.J. (AP) โ€” A New Jersey mother who recognized the face of a Census worker from the stateโ€™s online database of sex offenders called police, leading to charges that the man used a fake name and Social Security number to get the government job.

Amy Schmalbach told The Philadelphia Inquirer that she usually doesnโ€™t open the door when sheโ€™s at her Pennsauken home alone with her toddler son, but she did for the Census worker on May 4 because he was a government official.

Schmalbach said she spoke with the man, who identified himself as โ€œJamie,โ€ on her porch and remembered seeing a similar looking man on the stateโ€™s website of registered sex offenders. The face stood out because the man had 16 aliases, including โ€œPhanton Flamโ€ and โ€œToot Flynn,โ€ she said.

She called Pennsauken police. They arrested him the day after he visited Schmalbachโ€™s home, and he has been in custody since.

Federal prosecutors charged him Wednesday with using a fake Social Security number in the application he filled out in March to get the Census job.
