Some good news, if there can be any, coming out of the U.S. related to the lottery scam, which I wrote about a few months ago for the Guardian.
The mastermind behind one of the most lucrative scamming rings has pleaded guilty in a deal with federal prosecutors in North Dakota. Lavrick Willocks could face up to 40 years in prison and will be required to pay restitution.
And this also means that Willocks will “squeal” as it’s probably a plea bargaining deal? So he will implicate others.
