Did you know that Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody sent $71,000 of your tax dollars to a Nigerian scammer?<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

As if Moody abetting thousands of Illegal Immigrants who victimized Floridians through single-sided Immigration Marriage Scammers to steal millions of dollars yearly in Social Security and Title IV taxpayer funds wasn\u2019t bad enough, now we have learned that the Attorney General\u2019s Office\u2019s Senior Operations Manager got an email from the \u201cRobertson Law Firm\u201d asking the state to wire close to $71,000 for the firm\u2019s work on a lawsuit. A week later, the money was sent. However, a month later, the law firm informed the AG office, they never received the funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because the law firm turned out to be legitimate but later verified that they never actually received the funds, the case is still under investigation. Court documents however explain that the law firm\u2019s email was hacked and traced to a man all the way in Nigeria. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Florida Department of Law Enforcement investigators revealed in the court filing that the AG\u2019s Office didn\u2019t send the money to the suspect directly. They actually allegedly but \u201cunknowingly\u201d sent the $71,000 to a bank account registered to a Charlotte County woman\u2019s LLC, thinking it was the law firm\u2019s account. A waste of Florida taxpayer dollars that could have been easily avoided by Attorney Moody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A spokesperson said the money was stolen through a \u201cromance scam\u201d (very similar to whom Moody is abetting the same type of Illegal Aliens here in Florida to steal Federal tax funds) and that the account of the scammer has allegedly been frozen. The court documents show they\u2019ve seized all of the suspect\u2019s cryptocurrency and are asking the court to let them reclaim the roughly $71,000.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
