Daejon Love
Feds Say Fake 49er’s a Flight Risk
Fake 49ers player Daejon Love‘s alleged $1.3 million romance scam could keep him behind bars … prosecutors say he’s a serious flight risk with little tying him to any community.
The government alleges Love spent years meeting women on dating apps, convincing them he was a wealthy NFL player or successful investor before allegedly getting them to hand over money for fake investments.
According to the filing, prosecutors say Love and alleged accomplice Taylor Jamie Chan received roughly $1.3 million from victims, with 26 women identified so far. The FBI believes there could be additional victims.
The filing additionally paints Love as “nomadic,” claiming he traveled through six states in the weeks before his arrest and routinely bounced from hotel to hotel without a permanent address. Prosecutors also say he has no known legitimate employment or meaningful community ties to Idaho, where he was arrested.
