Montgomery, Alabama
A Montgomery man has been sentenced to 76 months in federal prison after pleading guilty to fraud that targeted the elderly.
Prosecutors say Allen pleaded guilty to two counts of wire fraud after scamming an elderly victim of approximately $250,000 between 2020 to 2021. They say Allen convinced the victim to give him money to remodel a home Allen claimed to have inherited from his mother.They say court records show that this victim was not the only one to be targeted by Allen.
“Each year, far too many seniors are financially exploited,” Ross said. “Crimes like this one can be devastating, depriving individuals of their resources, their independence, and their dignity. I am grateful to the other agencies involved in this case for identifying Nicholas Allen’s crimes and providing justice to his victims.”
