South Florida broker Christopher White has been busted for allegedly committing mortgage fraud, as well as lying on a citizenship application form.

The Fort Lauderdale resident was already negotiating a plea agreement for fraudulently obtaining a $5 million mortgage on a Las Olas Isles mansion when federal authorities busted him on immigration charges, according to the Sun-Sentinel.
