In Georgia, detained accused of embezzlement of money from a US citizen

Three Nigerian citizens were detained in Georgia on charges of embezzlement by deceiving a large amount of money from a US citizen. This was reported on August 17 in the press service of the Prosecutor General of Georgia. According to investigators, the defendants created a page on the social network on behalf of a non-existent German citizen Frank Lucas, who is in Georgia. On his behalf, they met D.K., who lives in the United States. Members of the criminal group assured the victim D.K. that Frank Lucas allegedly won a tender for the construction of bridges in the amount of $900 thousand and would soon go to the United States to create a family with her, the Prosecutor General's Office said. Further, according to investigators, accomplices contacted the woman on behalf of a non-existent Georgian doctor and wrote that Lucas needed an expensive operation. D.K. was assured that the money would be returned to her at the expense of income received for the construction of bridges. The victim sent a total of $233 thousand. Nigerian citizens are also accused of transferring money received from an American through many transactions to Nigeria and Turkey. In total, they managed to send almost $87 thousand. This activity is regarded by investigators of the Prosecutor General's Office of Georgia as the legalization of illegal income. The defendants face up to nine years in prison.
