So this guy operates a boxing gym, and has customers of his that pay with a credit card. He steals the credit card numbers to puchase steroids over the web with a credit card? What could go wrong?

It's very possible that one of the guys complained to a buddy at the gym about his card number getting stolen, and another guy at the gym heard that it happened to somebody else at the gym, and it went from there. Plus $30K of gear is quite a bit. They must figure he was also dealing, although distribution of a controlled substance is not listed as a charge.
