The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Oregon says Daejon Labrayae Love and Taylor Jamie Chan were charged by criminal complaint with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and wire fraud. Prosecutors allege Love pretended to be a San Francisco 49ers player or a wealthy investor and Chan posed as his financial adviser.
The complaint describes alleged losses of more than $1.3 million involving at least 26 women in Oregon, Washington, Idaho and California. Federal agents arrested the two men on 24 August 2026. The allegations are unproven; both are presumed innocent unless convicted.
