RE: Victim Eligible For Restitution

Our records indicate that you are eligible to receive restitution for one or more of the internet fraud or identity theft schemes you've been a victim of. See necessary case details below.

Case on apprehended internet fraudster, Kazeem Owonla, the Nigerian national who was arrested on felony charges in Atlanta, November 2015 has officially been closed in Barnstaple, Shire County after extradition proceedings to the UK. The case was closed based on the following terms; 1. Restitution Order: seized assets shall be liquidated and converted into a restitution distribution fund, 2. Time served plus 68 months and, 3. 10 years' probation, court documents show (available upon request).

The aforementioned perpetrator and his group of co-offenders used over 3500 aliases originating from Russia, Nigeria, Ghana, London and many more to mask their original identities. Our records indicate that you have been a victim of fraud and/or identity theft (which you may or may not be aware of if you don't regularly monitor your credit) because your contact details and personally identifiable information were found on several computer devices belonging to the perpetrator. Following court orders, this makes you eligible to receive restitution in the amount of 1,459,910.00 British Pounds (equivalent to $1,930,293.00USD) for damages caused by his crimes. This includes compensation for emotional and physical damages as well as damages to your reputation and credit.

Being that Owonla operated on an international scale and victimized thousands of individuals and companies of several nationalities, we determined that the investigation had to be kept private and away from public media to maintain unitary judgment and integrity in international relations. Because this was a private investigation, all victims (including yourself) were represented by a professional court-appointed public representative called Kaye H. Weston and Associates, P.C. located in the same local jurisdiction where the case was litigated.

Restitutions are ordered to be paid immediately, to receive yours, contact the Law Offices of Kaye H. Weston and Associates, P.C. at: [email protected]

*Note that all claims must be entered no later than 7 days from receipt of this notice. Be sure to quote your Reference Number in all correspondences.

Sincerely Yours

Case Number: 23-2016-007656-IC
Filing Date: 03/23/2014
Case Judge: KELLY JO MCKIBBEN
County Court: BARNSTAPLE MAGISTRATES' COURT
[Report]
Case on apprehended internet fraudster, Kazeem Owonla (hereinafter referred to as “The Defendant”), the Nigerian
national who was arrested on felony charges in Atlanta, November 2014, has officially been closed after a lengthy
and extensive fraud and identity theft investigation that lead to the discovery of several hidden assets such as
vacation houses, exotic cars, businesses and offshore private bank accounts scattered across Europe and Asia.
[Investigation & Restitution]
The aforementioned defendant and his group of co-offenders had over 3500 aliases originating from Russia, Nigeria,
Ghana, London, China, Dubai, United States and many more masking their original identities and involvement in
countless fraudulent activities including advance fee fraud, wire fraud, dating fraud, tax refund fraud and identity theft.
Upon review of the defendant’s mobile and computer devices during investigation, authorities discovered several
names and contact details of victims, as well as other compromised special identifying information such as social
security numbers, date of birth, bank account information, tax information, etc.
Following court orders, information found on the defendant’s devices were processed for damage evaluation to
determine victims’ eligibility for restitution. Results from damage evaluation show that you are eligible. Eligible victims
should be notified immediately by the International Relations Unit of the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3)
specifically to prevent the assumption of this restitution being another scam.
Being that the defendant operated on an international scale and victimized thousands of individuals and companies of
several nationalities, the court ordered that the investigation be kept private and away from public media to maintain
unitary judgment and integrity in international relations. Because this was a private investigation, all victims (including
yourself) were represented by a local court-appointed public representative (Kaye H. Weston & Associates PC).
Restitution payments have been ordered to be distributed equally among eligible victims in the amount of
£1,459,910.00GBP (eqv. $1,930,293.00USD) per victim, from the defendants most valued offshore private bank
account. This includes compensation for emotional and physical damages as well as damages to your reputation and
credit. This amount was derived from the total value of the account divided by the number of eligible victims.
Victims are ordered to be paid no later than 14 days of notification from the Internet Crime Complaint Center.
The case was closed based on the following terms;
1. Restitution Order: defendant’s most valuable offshore private bank account (as determined during evaluation)
shall be converted into a restitution fund sufficient enough to be distributed equally among eligible victims regardless
of initial damage claim.
2. Time served plus 68 months and, 10 years’ probation, court documents show (available upon request)
.

Mod Note: This post was made by a dumb scammer trying to protect their scam. We are leaving it here to show how low these scum will go to avoid losing victims.

Please be aware that the above post is not at all true and shouldn't be on this website, the client that posted it is really named XXX and he is a victim of scams of dating scams of over $10,000. He received this restitution but doesn't believe it is true so he has posted all this information here, we was NEVER asked to make any payment or asked for any money prior to receiving this restitution.

We plead that you take this down and help restore our good reputation as our initial investors and customers (whom have nothing to do with the restitution case) are bit panicked by all of this.

We are well aware that scammers have been using our good name to defraud people in this case, but Never us. Scammers take your money, we are not interested in that as these victims have already been through enough. We receive emails everyday from at least 10 people saying they were contacted by someone regarding a restitution and we had to turn them away because it wasn't true.

Thank you for your time and understanding.
