The hopes of Nigerian Instagram billionaire Ramon Abbas a.k.a Hushpuppi may have been further shattered after new evidence against him surfaced in California.
Hushpuppi has been incarcerated in federal prison in the United States after he was extradited from Dubai over internet fraud offenses.

The new evidence submitted against Hushpuppi, who was arrested months ago for being part of a network that made “hundreds of millions of dollars” from business email compromise frauds and other scams, revealed that he used his personal email to register an account on a website “whizzlog”. It is a marketplace for buying US bank logs and money laundering.
It was alleged that his email address contained registration confirmation from Whizzlog and numerous confirmation and receipts of bank logs he purchased.
It is still unclear if this evidence will have an impact on the ongoing trial of the incarcerated Instagram Billionaire as his defense attorney is yet to make a formal statement.
It appears that investigators are not slowing down anytime soon as they continue to dig and search for any slight evidence they can find. With this recent development, they have gained access to his personal email in search for revealing information.
