Man scams 4 million out of elderly

The article starts:

A federal jury in North Carolina has convicted a leader of a years-long telemarketing scheme that defrauded victims in the United States from a call center in Costa Rica.

Roger Roger, 40, and his co-conspirators posed as US government officials to trick the victims into believing they had won a “sweepstakes” prize, according to court documents and evidence presented at trial.

The final paragraphs state:

The jury convicted Roger of one count of conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, four counts of wire fraud, one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering, and two counts of international money laundering.

He faces 25 years in prison on each of the conspiracy to commit main and wire fraud, as well as the wire fraud, and 20 years in prison on each of the conspiracy to commit money laundering and money laundering counts.

The article isn’t long, but with these charges, Roger won’t see the light of day for the rest of his life.

Good job, man.
