American rapper Curtis Jackson, popularly known as 50 Cent has hinted about producing a series on convicted Nigerian internet fraudster, Hushpuppi.
50 made this known via his Instagram page where he informed movie lovers about his yearning to put out a project centered on scammers.
Sharing a photo of Hushpuppi, the “Many Men” rap star wrote: “For my scammers I gotta do this one, Hushpuppi series coming soon!”
On November 7, 2022, a United States District Court for the Central District of California finally sentenced Instagram celebrity, Ramon Abass Olorunwa, popularly known as Hushpuppi, to 11 years and three months in federal prison for conspiring to launder tens of millions of dollars from online scams.
But Abbas will spend nine years in prison because he had spent two years already.
Justice Otis Wright II, who delivered the judgment found Hushpuppi guilty of laundering proceeds of school financing scam, business email compromise fraud and other cyber schemes.
The judgment drew the curtain on Hushpuppi’s trial spanning two years and four months since his arrest in June 2020 at his hotel apartment in Dubai.
He was also ordered to pay over $1.7m in restitution to two fraud victims. (Nation)
