ROCK ISLAND COUNTY, Ill. (KWQC) – An East Moline, Ill. woman arrested earlier this year in a money laundering conspiracy has plead guilty in federal court.

Barbara Segura was charged in connection with an internet scam that convinced victims from all over the U.S. to pay money up front, so they could get government grants and receive large sums of money in return. Police say Seguara and acomplice Frederico Sausedo collected between $10,000 and $100,000 and wired it to people in Nigeria.

On Thursday, December 17, 2015, Segura plead guilty in federal court to counts of wire fraud and conspiracy. Sausedo has asked for a competency hearing and remains in federal custody.

Segura is scheduled to be sentenced at 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, April 14, 2016 in Rock Island Courtroom before Judge Sara Darrow.
