   MEMORANDUM

Abdrahman Gamudi appeals his sentence imposed following a guilty plea to a multi-count indictment charging him with an unlawful kickback scheme and money laundering. Gamudi claims that the district court erred in imposing a two-level vulnerable victim enhancement. We affirm.

DISCUSSION

A district court’s factual findings regarding victim vulnerability are reviewed for clear error. United States v. Medrano, 241 F.3d 740, 743 (9th Cir.), cert. denied, 533 U.S. 963, 121 S.Ct. 2622, 150 L.Ed.2d 775 (2001). There was no clear error. The record fully supports the district court’s findings that two of the victims were particularly vulnerable due to financial pressures and their recent entry into the job market. Gamudi created a work environment in which he not only demanded kickbacks, but threatened to tarnish the victims’ reputations so as to render them unemployable by anyone. The district court appropriately examined all of the circumstances in applying the enhancement.

AFFIRMED.
