Popular investigative journalist, Kemi Olunloyo took to her Instagram account to share more details about the arrest of Instagram’s big boy, Ray Hushpuppi.
Furthermore, taking to her verified Instagram page, Kemi wrote;
“#BREAKING UPDATE @mrwoodbery and @hushpuppi implicated by the @secretservice in a Nigerian Unemployment Insurance scam named #ScatteredCanary.
For those who don’t know what this is, this is money the US government gives us monthly when we lose our jobs while we are looking for another.
Somehow the Nigerian ring cracked into the system and filed 174+ fraudulent claims. People’s #COVID-19 stimulus payments gone.
It is too elaborate. Only thing I can say is every day for the thieves, one day for the owner.
It is a dark day in Nigeria.
HushPuppi and Woodberry and others are on their way to America.
I was also told that their properties have been sealed with warrants”.
Recall, yesterday news went viral about his arrest and that of his friend by Interpol.
