Two Nigerian nationals, Olutayo Sunday Ogunlaja, 39, and Abel Adeyi Daramola, 37, have been convicted in the United States for their involvement in a $560,000 internet fraud scheme. A federal grand jury in the District of New Mexico found them guilty after a four-day trial.
The duo participated in a romance scam, deceiving a woman into transferring substantial funds. Operating under the alias “Glenn Brown,” they convinced the victim to wire approximately $28,000 to a Woodforest Bank account in the name of “Daramola Cars.” Daramola then transferred $18,000 to a seafood importer in Denmark and issued a $14,000 check.
Ogunlaja’s involvement included using his Bank of America account to receive fraudulent funds, with the victim depositing $20,000 cash into his account on two occasions. Both individuals made multiple cash withdrawals and transfers following these deposits.
Although the sentencing date has not been scheduled, both Ogunlaja and Daramola face up to 20 years in prison for their crimes. They have been released on bail pending sentencing.
