September 7, 2019 by Dave Gibson   

MILVILLE, NJ (NJ.com) – A New Jersey man has been charged in a $2.1 million online dating scheme that duped people into sending money to supposed U.S. soldiers serving overseas, federal authorities said Wednesday.

One of the victims committed suicide after sending more than $93,000, according to investigators.

Rubbin Sarpong, 35, of Millville, is charged with a single count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and will have a first court appearance on Wednesday afternoon, the U.S. Attorney’s office reported.
