UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. CAMERON HARRISON, aka Kilobit, Defendant-Appellant.
ORDER

MEMORANDUM*
Defendant Cameron Harrison appeals the imposition of 115 months' imprisonment following his conviction on two counts under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act and one count of producing and transferring false identification in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1028(a)(1). We affirm.
1. The district court did not plainly err by applying a 22-level enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2B1.1(b)(1)(L)1 on the ground that the loss was more than $20 million. Defendant participated widely in the criminal enterprise, so it was not obvious that his joint undertaking encompassed less than the full amount lost during the period of his participation.
2. The district court did not plainly err by applying a two-level enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2B1.1(b)(4) on the ground that Defendant was in the business of receiving and selling stolen property. The district court accepted the factual assertions in the presentence report, to which neither party objected. Although those assertions primarily concerned Defendant's receipt of stolen property, some assertions concerned the sale of property that likely was stolen. Any error in applying this enhancement was not plain.
3. The district court did not plainly err by applying a six-level enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2B1.1(b)(2)(C) on the ground that the crimes “involved 250 or more victims.” See id. cmt. n.4(E).
4. Because the far-below-Guidelines sentence was reasonable, the district court did not abuse its discretion in selecting the sentence.
AFFIRMED.
