Jamaican Man Sentenced for Lottery Scam
Description
Jamaican Man Sentenced for Lottery Scam: A 34-year-old Jamaican man, Roshard Andrew Carty, was sentenced to three years in federal prison for a sophisticated lottery scam that defrauded a 73-year-old woman in Vancouver, Washington, out of over $600,000. The scam involved Carty exploiting the womans loneliness and retirement savings, using a network of burner numbers and various tactics to keep her engaged and paying fake fees. Prosecutors described the scheme as despicable. Carty may resume scams post-release, so older adults should be vigilant against lottery scams.
