Hammed Gbolarun, a Nigerian, is accused of buying ten cars with his benefactor’s credit card.
The 23-year-old is said to have arrived in the United States six months ago and was granted housing and employment papers by his gracious landlord.
@Citizenpeper, a Twitter user, said he “ventured into Yahoo Yahoo” and bought automobiles using money from his benefactor’s account.
The accused is seen kneeling between two cars in a video that has gone viral, pleading for mercy.
Someone in the video tells Hammed that he isn’t sorry for what he did, but only apologised because he was caught.
Friends of the accused have stated that he will give his side of the story soon.
