A squatter who tried to use a Shake Shack receipt to prove legal rights to a Queens house was indicted on charges including burglary and identity theft, prosecutors said Monday.

Lance White-Hunt, 24, of 18th Street in Brooklyn, went so far as to sue the actual homeowners — Denis Kurlyand and Juliya Fulman — back in March to cement his legal right to live in the $930,000 home on Lakewood Avenue.

But his plan backfired and he has been hit with an 18-count indictment that could put him behind bars for 15 years if he’s convicted, according to the Queens District Attorney’s Office.
