What Hushpuppi told me on phone – Deji Adeyanju

Human rights activist, Deji Adeyanju has revealed the conversation he had with international fraudster, Ramon Abbas, famously known as Hushpuppi.

Hushpuppi is facing criminal charges in the United States for conspiracy to launder money obtained from business email compromise frauds and other scams, including schemes that defrauded a US law firm of about $40 million, illegally transferred $14.7 million from a foreign financial institution, and targeted to steal $124 million from an English football club until his arrest by the Dubai Police in June 2020 and his extradition to the United States.

IDOMA VOICE repotrs that before meeting his waterloo, Hushpuppi, known as Gucci King, had flaunted his wealth online.

He was highly crticised by Deji and other young Nigerians.

On Thursday, a fresh report emerged that Hushpuppi committed another N$40,000 fraud in prison.
Reacting, Adeyanju said he once advised the fraudster but he warned him to leave Yahoo boys alone.

Adeyanju tweeted, “Hushpuppi said in one of his videos where he insulted me to leave Yahoo Boys alone and focus on politicians but when he got my number and called me, he denied yahoo vehemently. Everyone that defends fraudsters says- leave them alone. They are worse than corrupt politicians.”
