Michigan The state's marijuana regulatory agency is warning cannabis companies that fraudsters masquerading as regulators and industry executives are trying to trick employees into sending money or sharing security information about their businesses. One business lost more than $100,000 because of the scam, in which an individual impersonated a business owner and requested an employee transfer funds to an associate. Other reports involve scammers contacting employees about supposed inspections and requesting photos of their security systems, fire alarms, marijuana products, tracking numbers and exit doors. Minnesota Prosecutors dismissed charges against a Minnesota hemp farmer whose plants had elevated THC levels, claiming that they had trouble locating witnesses because of delays in the case. Fillmore County prosecutors filed felony possession charges against Luis Hummel in March 2019 after seizing his plants. They tested at 3% THC, 10 times higher than the 0.3% legal limit for THC in hemp. The case originally was set for trial in April 2020 but was postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic.
