Crime Stoppers is asking for your help identifying a suspect involved in a "Latin lotto" scam.

Last week, the suspects told a victim they won one million dollars from the lottery but were unable to cash it because they're not US citizens.

So, they asked the victim for $10,000 in cash to get the lottery prize and that they would split the money.

The victim gave the suspects the money, and then they took off in a black Volkswagen Jetta.

If you know anything about this crime, call Crime Stoppers.
