In recent years, the value of playing cards Pokemon increased considerably and not even the pandemic was enough to stop collectors from consuming them. In fact, stores in United States they even had to suspend their sale after some users even threatened others with firearms. And now, a notorious swindler has been sentenced to three years in jail.
When the pandemic broke out a few years ago, the US was offering financial support to people who had lost their jobs due to the covid and that he really needed the money. Well, perhaps you will remember the case of Vinath Oudomsinea man of Dublin, Ga. who said his business was bankrupt and later used this money to buy himself a valuable letter of Pokemon. To his bad luck, the authorities found out and opened an investigation folder for the case.
Oudomsine he pleaded guilty, for which he was sentenced to three years in prison on a fraud charge. When the investigations began, it was predicted that Oudomsine He could spend up to 20 years in jail for this crime, but because he pleaded guilty, and among other factors, his sentence was only reduced to three years. What card did he buy? well a Charizard valued at $57 thousand dollars.
Publisher’s note: It is because of this type of thing that we cannot have this type of privilege. And surely there will be many other people who committed a similar fraud, but they haven’t been caught yet. We hope that with this people will begin to take the aid offered by the government more seriously, and use it for real emergencies.
