American Rapper, 50 Cent, To Produce Series On Nigerian Fraudster Hushpuppi

American rapper, 50 Cent, has announced plans to release a movie series based on the story of Nigerian internet fraudster, Hushpuppi.

Hushpuppi, real name Ramon Abass, was arrested in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates in June 2020.

He was accused of defrauding over 1.9 million people, the majority of whom were Americans.

He was afterward extradited to the United States for trial on July 3, the same year.

During the trial, the 37-year-old pleaded guilty to all the charges filed against him.

A United States District Court sitting in the Central District of California on Monday sentenced Hushpuppi to 11 years and three months after he was found guilty of laundering proceeds of a school financing scam, business email compromise, and other fraudulent cyber schemes.

Sharing pictures of the convict, 50 Cent stated that he was working on a movie project based on Hushpuppi’s story.

The G-Unit Records founder wrote in the caption, “For my scammers, I gotta do this one. Hushpuppi series coming soon! GLG, Green Light Gang I don’t miss. #Bransoncognac #lecheminduroi #gunitfilmandtv.”
