The 29-years-old was accused of tricking an unnamed Chicago-based company of transferring about $15.3million to him.

He was arraigned on charges bordering on wire fraud conspiracy at a US District Court in Illinois.

However, the Attorney to the US government, John Lausch had on Monday filed a motion seeking the dismissal of the case against Ponle without prejudice.
