The Bronx woman the feds accused of running a ghoulish online scam to profit off the Newtown school massacre also set up at least four charities to solicit donations after Hurricane Sandy.
Nouel Alba, 37, was also accused online of impersonating a relative of a second Newtown victim. There was no sign of her on Friday as federal agents raided her home, removing two boxes of possible paper evidence and three smaller packages.
The search came a day after she was busted for posing as the aunt of Noah Pozner, a 6-year-old who was among the 20 children slain at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
