American cybercrime expert dismisses reports of fresh allegations against Hushpuppi as fake
Recent reports that Ramon Abbas, aka Hushpuppi, laundered over $400,000 while inside a U.S. jail is fake, an American cybercrime expert has submitted.
Gary Warner, the Director of Research in Computer Forensics at the University of Alabama, took to Twitter to rubbish the viral reports and the accompanying documents.
He said the document shared to back the report is a doctored version of a June 2020 affidavit.
Warner disclosed that the fake report was concocted by some conmen who spoofed an original document to get people to visit a scammer’s website.
He tweeted: “People are asking me if it is true that #Hushpuppi laundered $400,000 in #Stimulus cards from in prison.
“The document they show is an edit of a June 2020 Affidavit. The new version is fake, intended to get people to visit a scammer EIP website.”
