Canadian Citizen Sentenced To 78 Months In Prison For Leading An International Multimillion Dollar Fraud Scheme

Earlier today, Sandy Winick, a Canadian citizen who was extradited from Thailand, was sentenced at the federal courthouse in Brooklyn, New York, to 78 months in prison following his July 2015 guilty plea to conspiring to commit wire fraud for running an international advance fee scheme. The sentencing proceeding was held before United States District Judge Eric N. Vitaliano. As part of the sentence, Winick was ordered to pay $2,431,038.32 in restitution and $5,000,000 in forfeiture.

This prosecution was the result of efforts by President Obama’s Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force which was created in November 2009 to wage an aggressive, coordinated and proactive effort to investigate and prosecute financial crimes.
