Romance scam cost 2 Arizona women nearly $400K. One of the scammers is now in prison
Included for relevance; source claims are not independently verified. This record is based on saved titles and descriptions unless a separate deeper-reading assessment is explicitly shown. Observation dates are not incident dates. An arrest or charge is not a conviction.
How to read this record
Now in prison reports custody, not exact imposed term, plea, conviction/finality or time served; justice insufficient without borrowing51’s four-year sentence. Own California/Arizona/Africa place roles kept literal, no country from them. Romance label supplies no detailed false courtship; no calendar year or additive unique case. No ISO-dollar inference.
Evidence basis: saved title description

No direct connection is recorded. This does not establish that the story is unique.
