Kenneth Hacker was indicted Tuesday on charges of mail and wire fraud and false check and counterfeit securities charges by federal authorities.

Hacker allegedly bilked people out of more than $200,000 by claiming he was the great-great grandson of a Sioux chief. The Boston Herald does not report the name of the chief, or if a name was ever known.

Indianz.Com is currently investigating the identity of Kenneth Hacker, believing a staff member met him at Robert Mirabal concert in the Boston area in 1997.
