HushPuppi In Another $400,000 Fraud From The Prison

International known internet fraudster Ramon Abbas ‘Hushpuppi’, has been accused by the United States prosecutors, of committing fraud and laundering over $400,000 while in prison.

The US prosecutors, on Wednesday, presented documents before the U.S. District Court of California with fresh evidence indicating Mr Abbas committed fraud and money laundering at the U.S Federal correctional facility.

According to the documents, Mr Abass was involved in the purchase and laundering of Economic Impact Payment debit cards obtained from stolen data of U.S. citizens and residents.

The prosecutors stated that inmates are allowed access to phone calls, video calls, the internet, exempt from being monitored to protect their rights to privacy. However, between January 28 and March 4, security officers at the correctional facility observed that Mr Abbas had gone beyond allowed internet use.

In light of the internet-based crimes Mr Abbas was tried for, a warrant to record his activities was obtained and his activities were recorded for a week.

It was found that Mr Abbas had purchased 58 EIP debit cards from an underground cybercriminal marketplace StimulusCard, worth $429,800.

The Economic Impact Payments are financial support offered by the U.S. government to U.S residents according to the CARES Act.

Mr Abass, 37-year-old, whose sentencing was postponed to July, pleaded guilty to multimillion-dollar fraud charges as part of a plea bargain he entered with the U.S. authorities.

It will be recalled that Mr. Abbas was arrested in Dubai and extradited to the U.S. in June 2020, where he has been facing charges of corruption in Central California.
