Nigerian-born resident Oluwaseun Adekoya sentenced to 20 years for leading a $2M bank fraud scheme using stolen identities.
Oluwaseun Adekoya, a 40-year-old Nigerian-born lawful permanent resident of New Jersey, was sentenced to 20 years in federal prison for leading a nationwide bank fraud scheme targeting home equity lines of credit.
Convicted after a three-week trial, he orchestrated a years-long operation using stolen personal data, fake IDs, and encrypted communications to steal over $2 million from credit unions.
Authorities seized luxury items, including a $51,000 engagement ring and Rolex watches, and linked the scheme to his New Jersey residence.
Adekoya, described as a career fraudster with a history dating to 2008, must also pay over $2.2 million in restitution, serve five years of supervised release, and will be deported after prison.
