A gang of thieves posed as famous rappers to scam more than $100,000 from luxury hotels in the US south, prosecutors say.
The group rode around in a Rolls-Royce Phantom telling hotel workers they were with entertainment firm Roc Nation, according to a complaint filed in the US District Court in Atlanta. First they targeted the Georgian Terrace Hotel, where cast members from Gone With The Wind stayed during the film's Atlanta premiere. The hotel was left with a $45,000 bill.
The Hyatt Regency Atlanta was left $39,000 out of pocket, and two Atlanta recording studios reported a loss of $17,000 . Even the company that rented the Rolls Royce to the group was scammed: A-National Limousine said it lost almost $60,000 .The group of rap impostors are alleged to have used one credit card that was fake and another that was stolen.But their spree came to an end after they came up against suspicious staff at Fairfield Inn & Suites in Augusta, Georgia.
