Man Scams Women Out Of $2.1 Million Using Online Dating Sites

Posted on September 9, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

See the rest here:

Source: Owen Franken / Getty Various online daters were the victims of a stone cold scammer who pocketed $2.1 million. According to USA Today , a New Jersey man named Rubbin Sarpong allegedly conspired to scam more than 30 people out of money using false U.S. military identities. He appeared in Camden federal court last Wednesday on one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, according to U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito.  Court documents say that from January 2016 to September 2019, Sarpong and several co-conspirators — many who live in Ghana — reportedly started dating profiles on a number of sites using fake or stolen identities. They posed as U.S. military personnel stationed overseas who needed non-existent gold bars shipped to a U.S. location. Their story explained that military personnel in Syria were awarded in gold bars. “They contacted victims through the dating websites and then pretended to strike up a romantic relationship with them, wooing them with words of love,” reads the criminal complaint. In order to ship the nonexistent gold bars, the conspirators asked their newly wooed lovers for money and they explained that they would reimburse the victims once the gold bars arrived in the U.S. In one instance, a conspirator insisted that he was a U.S. soldier stationed in Syria who had secured bars worth $12 million and needed assistance bringing them over. He sent a woman a false airway bill showing that two trunks with “family treasure” would be sent to her. He included a fake United Nations Identity Card that identified him as a UN delivery agent and an Israeli citizen. The woman wired him more than $93,000 and they had plans to rendezvous at the Baltimore/Washington International Airport on June 13, 2018. The following day, she died by suicide. Investigators say that Sarpong and his accomplices used various email accounts and Voice Over Internet protocol phone numbers to communicate with victims and tell them where to wire money. Every now and then, victims would also send money via personal and cashier’s checks. After payments were received, the funds were withdrawn in cash, wired to other domestic bank accounts and wired to conspirators in Ghana. The ultimate scam. Sarpong was even bold enough to flaunt his earnings on social media, according to authorities. He was found posting picture of himself with large wads of cash, high-end cars and expensive jewelry. At one point in March 2017, he even posted a photo of himself lounging in a car with a stack of money up to his ear like a cellphone with the caption that read “WakeUp With 100k… One Time. Making A phone Call To Let My Bank Know Am Coming.” He also posted a photo of himself with an unidentified male back in December 2018, writing “BigBusiness Done…Now We Waiting For The Checks To Clear,” according to authorities. Sarpong reportedly received $823,386 throughout the whole scheme. Now, he faces a $250,000 fine and up to 20 years in prison, according to Carpenito.

Swae Lee’s Ex Arrested After Allegedly Headbutting Rapper

Posted on September 9, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Paras Griffin / Getty Putting hands on someone is wrong , and it goes both ways. Swae Lee ‘s ex-girlfriend was arrested after allegedly headbutting the Rae Sremmurd rapper. She hit him with the hands too, and she was put in cuffs. According to TM Z, Swae and his ex, Marliesia Ortiz, had an argument outside of crib near Los Angeles in early August and things got so heated she reported started throwing stuff at him. She eventually put hands on him, and headbutted him, before security got her out the paint. This is when the struggle rises, exponentially. According to the cops, it was Ortiz who called 911, claiming Swae sexually assaulted her. However, when the cops arrived, she changed her story, and even admitted to throwing items. Despite claiming Swae had strangled her, the cops decided to arrest Ortiz. These two might want to stay clear of each other. Just saying. View this post on Instagram Rapper #SwaeLee’s now ex girlfriend #MarliesiaOrtiz just shared a FaceTime call she had with him after she says he cheated. He basically tried to convince her she needed to just be a “down b*tch for him” and push through being treated like sh*t because she’s “going to be his wife one day.” He said all this while blasting #GucciMane and #ChanceTheRapper about their marriages. Put your F**kboi Free earmuffs on, you’re going to need them. Marliesia says she’s done for good this time…… A post shared by TheYBF (@theybf_daily) on Mar 22, 2019 at 1:38pm PDT

MODEL MONDAY: Tiffany’s Flame Wants To Shine A Light On All Bodies

Posted on September 9, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Commissioned by Ashley Stewart “Is your teacher famous like my teacher?” The question, posed by a particularly precarious elementary school student referred to Tiffany Flamer, an educator who outside of a few low stakes beauty shoots had overnight become the face of a national advertising campaign. Named Ms. Ashley Stewart in the brand’s annual Finding Ashley Stewart pageant Flammer has had her face plastered in store windows, magazines ads, and headline stories all over the internet but she appreciates its presence the most in her classroom. In an exclusive interview, the unlikely model talked to HelloBeautiful about her plans to expand her modeling career beyond her tenure and inspire others to be confident in the process. View this post on Instagram My Kindergarteners not only learned about our traditional hero’s in Black history but they learned about some of the dope people that are the Chester. @jahlilbeats and his brother @thebeatbully just won their first Grammy in 2019 for their music!! @bigvars_waterice is one of the Top Black Owned business in Chester who has provided treats for schools, churches, fundraising events, graduations, parties, scholarships, and throughout community for several years (He happens to be my man ) @drayclark1906 of NBC is an Emmy winning reporter that we get to see daily providing us with latest news updates @napturallyphit is the FIRST black female firefighter in Chester ( Who I happened to go to school high school with) @officiallydahsar Is a designer from Chester who has had his designed on many red carpets and recently seen on the 2019 red carpet with his designs on @korynhawthorne @colastylzme has is a dope entrepreneur with the hottest boutique providing luxurious fashions for the everyday woman and has traveled nationally with her fashions @first_lady_judge Is the first black magisterial judge in Chester and ALL of Delaware County @iamfredgreen is the youngest sitting black school board director in Pennsylvania #chesterpa #chesterstandup #blackhistorymonth #blackhistorydoorchallenge #blackhistory365 #blackhistoryfact A post shared by Tiffy The Fashion Slayer (@tiffythefashionslayer) on Mar 1, 2019 at 4:13am PST Prior to landing a major campaign with Ashley Stewart Flamer had actually tried to model for the brand once before. “Back in 2015 I auditioned for the Ashley Stewart ‘Love Your Curves tour,” she said. She went on to reveal that her lack of success in that competition alst prevented her from taking home her crown. “I didn’t make that, and I knew it was gonna be the same people that were judging that so I was like ‘They didn’t pick me before, why would they pick me now?” Commissioned by Ashley Stewart The deciding factor in her putting herself out there again was encouragement from her local store manager. An avid shopper with a reputation for having great personal style Flamer had become close with the person who often watch her twirl around the chain’s pink clad dressing rooms. “She said, ‘I think you should do it, just do it. Just give it a chance,” said Flamer. A few days later, right before the year of her school year the teacher who describes herself as being “active in her community” decided to dedicate part of her break to giving it a shot.

It was a far cry from having her makeup done for free in service of a friend’s portfolio. “I did photoshoots but nothing like this,” she explained.

I can wear that, because I look like that,” she said. She added that she wanted them to think, “That will look bomb on me.” Even with a huge campaign under her belt, a growing social media following and a clip of Loni Love yelping out her name on the internet, she has not been able to lock down a modeling agent, a task that is seemingly simpler for the young women in the shallower end of the plus-size pool. “I notice that a lot of the agencies who represent plus size models the models are on the smaller end,” she pointed out. “In the media they consider anything a size 10 and up, but their models are usually on the smaller end. They’re size 10 and size 12 they’re not your 14s and 16s and 18s,” she continued. “I definitely want to continue modeling, I am looking to sign and I’m hoping that will be a possibility for me, hopefully they can take me as I am.” If they don’t, we will.

Tenisha Light-Caba Of Brooklyn Bleu Is Making High-End Vintage Jewelry Affordable For All

Posted on September 9, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Victoria Uwumarogie / HB From the moment I stepped in Brooklyn Bleu , I was impressed. Actually, make that the moment I grabbed the door handle. Even from outside, I could tell that I wasn’t stepping into your ordinary vintage jewelry spot. When I entered, I felt like embraced, not only by the woman who greeted me at the door, but also by the atmosphere. There were splashes of pink, lots of gold, and the sounds of women fawning over shining jewels. The woman behind this dream of a shopping experience is Tenisha Light-Caba. The entrepreneur, who stood in the midst of all of the excitement in a jean Fenty dress , lucite heels and her own vintage Chanel earrings and gold link bracelets fashioned into anklets, started the business in 2010. However, she has been selling vintage jewelry since she was a kid living in California. “I had rummage sales every weekend, making money selling my grandmother’s jewelry,” she told me. “Then it became my chore to clean another grandmother’s jewelry. One would let me make money at the rummage sales selling the jewelry right in front of the house. I would set up a little table, but I wasn’t selling lemonade, I was selling jewelry.” View this post on Instagram Show me Love, Keep all Those Other Vibes for Yourself! Wearing #chanel #vintage #lindaevangelista #1993 #chanelbelt @brooklynbleuny A post shared by Brooklyn Bleu (@brooklynbleuny) on Dec 17, 2018 at 3:11pm PST She’s long past the days of getting her pieces from her grandmother. Nowadays, Tenisha works with private collectors who’ve been in the business for decades to pull together her one-of-a-kind collection, which she’s been able to put in her new store located in The Oculus , otherwise known as Westfield World Trade Center in Manhattan. “I tend to like to work with the same people. This is how I’m able to get my hands on the good stuff. I take care of them, they take care of me,” she said. “They have a lot. They have more than what I could ever afford to buy. Where they get it from? Who knows.” Her collection has expanded greatly, taking her from her early beginnings of selling in a brownstone, moving on to Chelsea Market, to eventually having her own space, one of the few minority-owned businesses in the Oculus. “We first started our business in a historic brownstone in Brooklyn,” she said of her journey. “I’ve never had the space. I’ve usually worked at an artisan market. This is the biggest space I’ve ever had. This gives me a chance to really shine, have lighting and really make it my own.” It hasn’t been an easy journey, but it’s been a successful one. During her days working at markets like Artists & Fleas and Top Shop on 5th Avenue, Tenisha broke records for her sales. “I worked,” she said. “I put the work in. It’s been so many things that happened in the world over the past 10 years and in that time, I’ve had my business full time. I’m independently funded. I don’t have investors. Now I have payroll and I have employees.” Source: Victoria Uwumarogie / HB What you’ll find at the store is pieces dating back from the ’30s and ’40s. Items from big name fashion houses like Yves Saint Laurent and Chanel, as well as daintier, unique items from all over. The good news is, everything is affordable, but there are items specific to every wallet. For instance, she has inexpensive earrings and necklaces from the ’70s, her “Dainty” and “Re.Fresh” collections. They are old stock that she received from a collector who had a wholesale business in the 1970s, and she replated everything to give it a fresh look. They are being sold between the $20-$40 range. The wide-ranging prices are part of Tenisha’s hope to make people from all walks vintage fans — and welcome when they visit Brooklyn Bleu. “I want people to feel welcomed, to feel like they’re at home. I want them to feel comfortable and good — just as good when they leave,” she said. “That’s the experience they get when they walk through the door, that’s how people treat them, that’s courtesy. That’s being professional and knowing what you have to offer as well. I have to train and work really hard with my staff too so they can pass on that same experience.” She also wants people to know that Brooklyn Bleu will be flexible. If you get a piece and for some reason you need to return it (allergies, any other unexpected issue), she welcomes it back. Source: Victoria Uwumarogie / HB “If someone’s not happy with the piece, it doesn’t make me happy for them to have it,” she said. “I’d rather get it in the hands of someone who’s going to really enjoy it.” With that being said, it’s rare for such a thing to happen with Tenisha’s collection of pieces. You’ll understand when you step in the space and find yourself mesmerized by the statement necklaces, quirky rings, avante-garde earrings, delightful vintage mirrors and ornate bags. Especially at the cost. “It’s important to offer pieces that are accessible and vintage,” she said. “When I go to a place and it feels like everything is just too expensive, it’s like, ‘I thought I was making good money! I can’t even afford this.’ I didn’t ever want people to feel that in here — and they don’t. We have customers who take four and five pieces. Most customers take more than one item.” Brooklyn Bleu is now open and officially located at The Oculus World Trade Center: Church Street, New York, NY 10006

#NYFWNoir: Gina Edwards Partnered With Rebecca Minkoff To Give The Modern Day Working Woman Runway Style Nails

Posted on September 9, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: John Lamparski / Getty Ahh, who doesn’t love runway lewks?! The dramatic presentation of the clothes, the precision of the sewing, and a first look to what’s to come. However, if you are working in a corporate setting, it can be hard to translate the runway to real way and rock your fashion while getting that coin. Rebecca Minkoff presented her Fall/Winter 2019 collection and it’s all about the modern working woman. Minkoff stated via press release, “As a female founder and entrepreneur, I am continuously inspired by the women around me and women in the workplace who represent strong examples of leadership, strength and grace. When creating this collection these inspiring women were top-of-mind – I wanted to highlight the modern working woman, her wardrobe, and her environment.” Source: KISS Nails / Courtesy of KISS Nails, Inc. She did so with power suits, get ready in the morning quickly dresses, and perfectly pleated skirts. Minkoff also partnered with Lead Manicurist for Kiss Products, Inc., Gina Edwards to create a series of nail looks inspired by the Fall/Winter 2019 collection. With prices ranging from $7.99 to $11.99, this is a great way to access runway inspired looks without paying runway prices. Edwards explained that, “Women are looking for fun, relatable nail looks for everyday.” You can achieve this with Kiss Nail Art Paints to create leopard, zebra, plaid and golden fantasy looks. Not sure it’s acceptable for everyday? Edwards reassures that, “each design is on trend without being overbearing.” The beauty of using Kiss Nail Art Paint ($9.99, KISSusa.com ) is that you can paint an accent nail or all of your nails depending on what you want. Backstage, our favorite looks were the zebra and the plaid nails, so we’re sharing below, how to get the look. ZEBRA NAILS Source: KISS Nails / Courtesy of KISS Nails, Inc. I love the Zebra look because animal print is undoubtedly the new black. People tend to gravitate toward leopard, but I love more exotic prints like Zebra! The black and white keeps it classic and more demure. Select the correct size of KISS Gel Fantasy Nails and KISS Masterpiece Nails. You are going to need each to complete this look. Size your nails in advance, not as you go along. You will paint each of your accent nails with KISS Nail Art Paint to create the desired effect. For the Zebra look you will use the KISS Nail Art Paint in blue to create zebra stripes across the chrome accent nails from KISS Masterpiece Nails in Kitty Gurl ($11.99, KISSusa.com ). You can complete the look using KISS Gel Fantasy Nails in Bookworm ($8.99, cvs.com ). PLAID NAILS Source: KISS Nails / Courtesy of KISS Nails, Inc. As the temperature begins to turn and Summer turns into Fall, you can be back in style by rocking plaid nails. Plaid is a go to Fall print and also considered corporate acceptable. This lpok, you’ll have to wait till mid-September as the products haven’t dropped to the public yet. However, you’ll be able to shop them on KISSusa.com as well as in ULTA and Walgreens. Paint horizontal and vertical lines in a pattern onto KISS Halloween Gel Fantay Nails in Binx. You’ll then complete the look with the KISS Halloween Gel Fantay Nails in Skellington. Each nail set is $7.99 – when was the last time you got an on point gel manicure for under $20.00?! Are you feeling these Fall nails? Will you be trying to DIY these looks?

Fade Served: McDonald’s Employee Choked & 2-Pieced A Customer Mad About Cold Fries

Posted on September 9, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Go here to read the rest:

Source: picture alliance / Getty Fast food chains continue to be hotbeds for hotheads even without chicken sandwiches on the menu. Over the weekend, a McDonald’s employee put hands on a costumer while vacationing with his wife in New Orleans. WWLTV is reporting that the altercation took place after the customer (who wants to remain anonymous) complained about his food order. After being given cold french fries, the customer tried to give them back for a hot and fresh batch, but admits that he was sort of a jackass about it and the employees noticed. The customer admitted he had an attitude when he told the workers he wasn’t happy, but can’t explain the violence. “If I could make sense of it I’d tell you, but I don’t have a clue,” he said. “The customer is always right, even if he’s wrong.” Eyewitness News went to that McDonald’s and found the employee still working there as of Tuesday. We asked the employee for his side, but he didn’t want to talk until he spoke with his employer first. “I’d like to see that guy in jail,” the customer said. The franchise owner provided a written statement to WWL-TV that said “the behavior seen in this video is not what I expect from my employees, we are conducting a thorough investigation of this incident.”  NOPD is investigating, but at this time, no charges have been filed. In the video that’s spreading through social media as we speak, we see said customer getting choked up and rocked in the face before walking away. We get the whole “the customer is always right” logic but if this customer wanted to have it his way, he should’ve went to Burger King. This fool went and got bold at a restaurant where the slogan was once “You deserve a break today.” He got broken off alright…

Source: BEHROUZ MEHRI / Getty Before there were iPods, smartphones , and CD players, there was the Walkman. To celebrate the technological advancements the 40th anniversary, Sony is dropping two new models of the portable music player. The tech giant announced the Sony NW-A100TPS and the lower-end Sony NW-A105 are on the way.  We are sure there is some head-scratching going on reading this. Mainly with tape cassettes being a thing of the past. BUT these models have been modernized to suit the modern-day person. The “rebooted” Walkman devices will run on an Android OS and come with a bevy of new features. For instance, the DSHEE HX processor will provide improved compressed audio, a vinyl processor for the audiophile who enjoys a vintage sound. Plus there is an S-Master HX amplifier which will supply the best quality audio. The new Walkman will also sport a 3.6-inch touch panel, USB-C charging port, Bluetooth capability, and expandable 16GB storage. Where the two devices differ is the NW-A100TPS will be sporting a 40th-anniversary logo, an interface that resembles a tape cassette, unique packaging and case that is will resemble the original Walkman. The NW-A105 will be the cheaper model and will not be decked out with fresh designs. Since we are on the topic of price, reports indicate when they launch in Australia and Europe later this year, they will cost AUD 599 and €440 EUR/£400 GBP. As far as a release date for the US, details have yet to be announced, but when they do both models will probably cost somewhere between $400 and $500 according to reports . Now we are not sure who is in the market for a separate device that plays music being that most people use their smartphones to stream music now. We are intrigued to see how the new models do upon their release. You can see them in action in the announcement video below. — Photo: BEHROUZ MEHRI / Getty
