American popular rapper, G Herbo, and his associates have been charged with fraud.
Herbo and his associates were charged for allegedly conspiring to defraud businessmen and businesswomen with stolen credit cards over the past four years.
A 14-count indictment alleged that Herbo was involved in the defrauding scheme alongside eight other defendants.
Among the defendants is alleged ringleader Antonio T-Glo Strong, identified in court documents as “promoter and manager of rappers, particularly those in the Chicago area.”
Further charges listed in the indictment include wire fraud, conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and more.
According to the court documents, Herbo and other defendants participated in fraud-related schemes dating back to 2016, during which they would “defraud numerous businesses and individuals throughout the United States by possessing, using, and transferring unauthorized and stolen payment and card account information” to “obtain valuable goods and services.” The goods and services listed in the document include private jet charters, exotic car rentals, designer puppies, and more.”
