Popular and controversial American rapper, actor, movie and TV shows producer, Curtis James Jackson III, (aka 50 Cent) disclosed via his Instagram page, plans to make a TV series about the recently convicted internet fraudster, Ramon Abbas, popularly known as Hushpuppi.
50 Cent, who is well known for producing successful TV series such as Power, Power Book II, and Power Book III among others, announced this upcoming movie in the late hours of Wednesday.
According to him, his inspiration to make the series is for the sake of his ‘scammers’.
Posting some pictures of the convicted fraudster, he wrote, “For my scammers I gotta do this one, Hushpuppy series coming soon ! GLGGreenLightGang i don’t miss #bransoncognac #lecheminduroi #gunitfilmandtv.”
Hushpuppi was recently sentenced to 11 years and three months in prison by the United States District Court, which means he’ll be behind bars for another nine years having spent two years.
The socialite was in June 2020 arrested in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, over an extensive fraud scheme that has robbed victims of their money in the US, Qatar, the United Kingdom, and other places.
He was then moved to the United States where he was indicted for fraud and money laundering.
He pleaded guilty to conspiracy to engage in money laundering with multiple people within and outside the US to launder the proceedings.
