A Jamaican man has been sentenced to more than five years in federal prison for his role in a lottery scam that victimized a senior in Estes Park.
Rajay Dobson has been sentenced to 63 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release. He was ordered to pay $881,477 in restitution to the woman who was scammed, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, District of Colorado.
Dobson and a co-defendant, Leonard Luton, conspired to convince the victim that she had won a $2.8 million lottery and a Mercedes Benz but she had to pay thousands of dollars in “fees” in order to receive the winnings, the news release said. Dobson and Luton made two trips to Estes Park to pick up packages of ill-gotten cash. Luton was arrested on the second trip. The elderly victim was scammed out of more than $970,000.
On March 24, Dobson pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud. He was sentenced Wednesday by U.S. District Court Judge Christine M. Arguello.
