Ramon Olorunwa Abbas, also known as Hushpuppi was sentenced to more than 11 years in federal prison by a US court in Los Angeles, California. The 40-year-old fraudster was also ordered to pay $1,732,841 in restitution to two victims of his online scams.
The judge accused Hushpuppi of conspiring to launder tens of millions of dollars and living a lavish lifestyle funded by his criminal activities, which he flaunted on social media. Hushpuppi pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to engage in money laundering in April 2021, 10 months after his arrest in Dubai, UAE.
Hushpuppi has remained in US federal custody since his expulsion from the UAE.
“Abbas bragged on social media about his lavish lifestyle – a lifestyle funded by his involvement in transnational fraud and money laundering conspiracies targeting victims around the world,” said United States Attorney Martin Estrada.
“Money laundering and business email compromise scams are a massive international crime problem, and we will continue to work with our law enforcement and international partners to identify and prosecute those involved, wherever they may be.”
