Robbing from an Autistic Child

100 dollar charge for a four year old autistic boy

Maimonides Medical Center, behemoth hospital , sent us a bill for an emergency room visit for our son, $91 and $840 and then said there was a $100.00 copay. Medicaid and Fidelis covered the balance but how can you charge a 4 year old Autistic boy $100.00. That is disgusting and greedy. Shame on this greedy company.

Leave it to our President elect, a true businessman. When it comes to his pressing needs, he will do everything in his power and by now, he has a lot of power. He can and will do anything that is convenient for his life and business. The NY Daily news reports that Trump's son, Eric, petitioned with the labor department for six H-2B workers to work the Trump vineyard in Virginia. Amazing...See story here...http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/trump-vineyard-requests-visas-foreign-workers-article-1.2920769

Fake Degree Scandal

faces of Axact scandal

If you thought Trump University was bad, you got read this story...now I used to do immigration law and Pakistanis can come up with passports in any name, and now they can come up with any degree...

till the feds came knocking at their door....

"Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Philip R. Bartlett, Inspector-in-Charge of the New York Office of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service (“USPIS”), and William F. Sweeney Jr., the Assistant Director-in-Charge of the New York Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”), announced today the filing of a criminal Complaint charging UMAIR HAMID, a/k/a “Shah Khan,” a/k/a the “Shah,” with wire fraud, conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and aggravated identity theft in connection with a worldwide “diploma mill” scheme that collected at least approximately $140 million from tens of thousands of consumers.  As alleged, HAMID and his co-conspirators made false and fraudulent representations to consumers on websites and over the phone to trick them into enrolling in purported colleges and high schools, and issued fake diplomas upon receipt of upfront fees from consumers.  HAMID was arrested on December 19, 2016, and was presented yesterday in federal court in Fort Mitchell, Kentucky.

Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said:  “As alleged, while promising the rewards of a higher education, Umair Hamid was actually just peddling diplomas and certifications from fake schools.  Hamid allegedly took hefty upfront fees from young men and women seeking an education, leaving them with little more than useless pieces of paper.”

USPIS Inspector-in-Charge Philip R. Bartlett said:  “Mr. Hamid took advantage of the aspirations and dreams of thousands wanting a college education by devising a scheme to issue college coursework, degrees and certifications not worth the paper they were printed on. Postal Inspectors and their law enforcement partners will spare no resource to bring these scammers to justice, protecting those striving for higher education and opportunities.”

FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge William F. Sweeney Jr. said:  “Thousands of people’s hopes were crushed as this alleged diploma mill scheme came crashing down.  Victims took at face value the lies Hamid and his co-conspirators are alleged to have sold them.  Today, we’re rewriting the lesson plan.”           

According to the allegations contained in the Complaint filed today in Manhattan federal court[1]:

The Axact Scheme

HAMID, using the aliases “Shah Khan” and the “Shah,” and others operated a massive education “diploma mill” through the Pakistani company “Axact,” which has held itself out as one of the world’s leading information technology (“IT”) providers.  Working on behalf of Axact, HAMID and others made misrepresentations to individuals across the world, including throughout the United States and in the Southern District of New York, in order to dupe these individuals into enrolling in supposed high schools, colleges, and other educational institutions.  Consumers paid upfront fees to HAMID and his co-conspirators, believing that in return they would be enrolled in real educational courses and, eventually, receive legitimate degrees.  Instead, after paying the upfront fees, consumers did not receive any legitimate instruction and were provided fake and worthless diplomas.              

Axact promoted and claimed to have an affiliation with approximately 350 fictitious high schools and universities, which Axact advertised online to consumers as genuine schools.  During certain time periods since 2014, Axact received approximately 5,000 phone calls per day from individuals seeking to purchase Axact products or enroll in educational institutions supposedly affiliated with Axact.  At least some of those consumers appeared to believe that they were calling phone numbers associated with the respective schools.  When consumers asked where the schools were located, sales representatives were instructed to give fictitious addresses. 

Once a consumer paid for a school certificate or diploma that falsely reflected a completed course of study, Axact sales agents were trained to use sales techniques to convince the consumer that the consumer should also purchase additional “accreditation” or “certifications” for such certificates or diplomas in order to make them appear more legitimate.  Axact, through HAMID and his co-conspirators, falsely “accredited” purported colleges and other educational institutions by arranging to have diplomas from these phony educational institutions affixed with fake stamps supposedly bearing the seal and signature of the U.S. Secretary of State, as well as various states and state agencies and federal and state officials. 

HAMID’s Role in the Scheme

HAMID served as Axact’s “Assistant Vice President of International Relations.”  While based in Pakistan, HAMID was involved in managing and operating online companies that falsely held themselves out to consumers over the Internet as educational institutions.  Among other things, HAMID made various false and fraudulent representations to consumers in order to sell fake diplomas.  At HAMID’s direction, the websites of purported “schools” (1) falsely represented that consumers who “enrolled” with the schools by paying tuition fees would receive online instruction and coursework, (2) sold bogus academic “accreditations” in exchange for additional fees, (3) falsely represented that the schools had been certified or accredited by various educational organizations, and (4) falsely represented that the schools’ degrees were valid and accepted by employers, including in the United States. 

As a further part of the scheme, HAMID and a co-conspirator (1) opened bank accounts in the United States in the names of shell entities, effectively controlled by HAMID, which received funds transferred by consumers in exchange for fake diplomas, (2) transferred funds from those bank accounts to bank accounts associated with other entities located elsewhere in the United States, the United Arab Emirates, and Canada, at the direction of HAMID, and (3) opened and operated an account with Paypal, the online payment service provider, to collect and distribute consumer funds obtained in connection with their fraudulent scheme.

In or about May 2015, Axact was shut down by Pakistani law enforcement, and certain individuals associated with Axact were prosecuted in Pakistan.  Nevertheless, after May 2015, HAMID resumed his fraudulent business of selling fake diplomas to consumers in the United States for upfront fees based upon false and fraudulent representations.  Most recently, HAMID traveled to the United States in order to open a bank account that he has used to collect money from consumers he defrauded. 

*                *                *

HAMID, 30, of Karachi, Pakistan, is charged with one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and two counts of wire fraud, each of which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison; and one count of aggravated identity theft, which carries a mandatory minimum sentence of two years in prison.  The maximum potential sentences are prescribed by Congress and are provided here for informational purposes only, as any sentencing of the defendant will be determined by the judge.

Mr. Bharara praised the investigative work of the FBI and Postal Inspection Service.  Mr. Bharara noted that the investigation remains ongoing.

Oilpro.com founder pleads guilty

According to the feds...."Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and William F. Sweeney Jr., Assistant Director-in-Charge of the New York Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”), announced today that DAVID W. KENT, the founder of professional networking website Oilpro.com (“Oilpro”), pled guilty this morning before U.S. District Judge Denise L. Cote in Manhattan federal court to a superseding Information, which charged him with one count of intentionally accessing a protected computer without authorization.  The charge stemmed from KENT’s role in repeatedly hacking into a competitor’s database to steal customer information and attempting to sell Oilpro to the same company whose database KENT had hacked.

Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said:  “David Kent has admitted to his role in hacking into a competitor’s network and stealing client data in order to boost the value of Oilpro, a company he founded.  Kent then attempted to sell Oilpro to the very company he hacked.  Using cyber hacking to gain advantage over a competitor is not only an unfair business practice, but is a federal crime for which Kent has now pled guilty.”           

FBI Assistant Director William F. Sweeney said:  "Today, David Kent pled guilty to intentionally accessing a protected computer without authorization. This is a stern reminder to others that unauthorized access to a computer is a federal crime with severe penalties; even just a quick look at the data on the computer can lead to a prison sentence and that never leads to a leg up in business.”

According to the superseding Information, the previously filed Complaint, and statements made at public court proceedings:

In or about March 2000, KENT founded a website (“Website-1”) that provides, among other things, networking services to professionals working in the oil and gas industry.  Website-1 allows its members to create profiles, which includes personal and professional information.  As part of their profiles, members can also upload their resumes.  The profiles are contained in a database maintained by Website-1 (the “Members Database”).  Members are assigned login credentials (i.e., usernames and passwords) when they create their profiles.  Members use these login credentials to access their profiles.

In or around August 2010, KENT sold Website-1 for approximately $51 million to a publicly traded company headquartered in New York, NY (“Company-1”).  KENT entered into an employment agreement with Company-1 and agreed to continue to serve as the president of Website-1 after the acquisition.  However, KENT left Website-1 in September 2011 and launched Oilpro in October 2013.  Like Website-1, Oilpro provides networking services to professionals working in the oil and gas industry.  Oilpro is headquartered in Houston, Texas.

Between October 2013 and February 2016, KENT conspired to access information belonging to Website-1 without authorization and to defraud Company-1.  KENT accessed the Website-1 Members Database without authorization and stole customer information, including information from over 700,000 customer accounts.  KENT then exploited this information by inviting Website-1’s members to join Oilpro.  Similarly, one of Kent’s employees at Oilpro who previously worked for Website-1 (“CC-1”) accessed information in Website-1’s Google Analytics account without authorization and forwarded the information to KENT.  In the meantime, KENT attempted to defraud Company-1 by misrepresenting during discussions about a potential acquisition of Oilpro by Company-1 that Oilpro had increased its membership through standard marketing methods.

Orthodox Jewish Real estate developers charged in voter registration scam

Shalom Lamm , Real Estate Developer

anti semite rears her ugly face against Hasidic Jew 

According to the feds..."Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and William F. Sweeney Jr., the Assistant Director-in-Charge of the New York Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”), today announced the unsealing of an Indictment charging SHALOM LAMM, KENNETH NAKDIMEN, and VOLVY SMILOWITZ, a/k/a “Zev Smilowitz,” with conspiracy to corrupt the electoral process, in connection with an election in Bloomingburg, New York.   Bharara also today announced the guilty plea of HAROLD BAIRD, a former Town Supervisor of Mamakating, New York, to conspiracy to submit false voter registrations, charged in a one-count Information unsealed today.   

Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara stated:  “In pursuit of millions of dollars in profits from a real estate development project, the defendants allegedly hatched a cynical ploy to corrupt the electoral process in Bloomingburg.  As alleged, to get public officials supportive of their development project elected to local government, the defendants concocted a scheme to falsely register voters who did not live in Bloomingburg, including some who had never even set foot there.  And to cover up their voter fraud scheme, the defendants allegedly back-dated fake leases and even placed toothpaste and toothbrushes in empty apartments to make them appear occupied by the falsely registered voters.  Profit-driven corruption of democracy cannot be allowed to stand no matter who does it or where it happens.”

FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge William F. Sweeney Jr. stated:  “Today’s charges allege the defendants corruptly advanced their own personal real estate projects in Bloomingburg, New York, at the expense of honest citizens who expect and deserve a fair election system.  In their scheme to promote their own real estate development projects, the defendants violated federal law as they schemed to put themselves first.  This type of behavior simply won’t be tolerated.”  

As alleged in the Indictment unsealed today in White Plains federal court[1]:

SHALOM LAMM, KENNETH NAKDIMEN, and VOLVY SMILOWITZ, a/k/a “Zev Smilowitz,” the defendants, were real estate developers who, starting in or about 2006, sought to build and sell real estate in Bloomingburg, New York.  From these real estate development projects, the defendants hoped for and anticipated making hundreds of millions of dollars.  But by late 2013, the first of their real estate developments had met local opposition, and still remained under construction and uninhabitable.  When met with resistance, rather than seek to advance their real estate development project through legitimate means, the defendants instead decided to corrupt the democratic electoral process in Bloomingburg by falsely registering voters and paying bribes for voters who would help elect public officials favorable to their project.

Specifically, in advance of an election in March 2014 for Mayor of Bloomingburg and other local officials, LAMM, NAKDIMEN, and SMILOWITZ, the defendants, and others working on their behalf, developed and worked on a plan to falsely register numerous people who were not entitled to register and vote in Bloomingburg, because they actually lived elsewhere.  People the defendants falsely sought to register to vote in Bloomingburg included those who never intended to live in Bloomingburg, those who had never kept a home in Bloomingburg, and indeed, some who had never even set foot in Bloomingburg in their lives.  The defendants took steps to cover up their scheme to register voters who did not actually live in Bloomingburg by, among other things, creating and back-dating false leases and placing items like toothbrushes and toothpaste in unoccupied apartments to make it seem as if the falsely registered voters lived there.

LAMM, NAKDIMEN, and SMILOWITZ, the defendants, also bribed potential voters by offering payments, subsidies, and other items of value to get non-residents of Bloomingburg to unlawfully register and vote there.  LAMM, for example, agreed to pay an individual $500 for every voter that the individual procured, and LAMM and NAKDIMEN’s real estate company ultimately paid the individual more than $30,000 per month for his efforts.

As alleged in a separate Information unsealed today in White Plains federal court:

From in or about January 2014 through in or about March 2014, BAIRD conspired with others to submit false voter registrations so that he could run for political office and vote in Bloomingburg.  In fact, however, BAIRD did not live in Bloomingburg, and his voter registrations were false. 

*                      *                     *

LAMM, NAKDIMEN, and SMILOWITZ were arrested this morning and will be arraigned today on the charges in the Indictment before United States Magistrate Judge Judith C. McCarthy in the White Plains federal courthouse.                                     

LAMM, 57, of Bloomingburg, NAKDIMEN, 64, of Monsey, New York, and SMILOWITZ, 28, of Monroe, New York, are each charged with one count of conspiracy to commit an offense against the United States, in particular to corrupt the electoral process by submitting false voter registrations, buying voter registrations, and offering bribes for voter registrations and votes.  The offense carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

BAIRD, 60, of Sullivan County, New York, pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to submit false voter registrations, which carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.  The defendant will be sentenced at a future date.  The case is assigned to United States District Judge Cathy Seibel.

The statutory maximum penalties are prescribed by Congress and are provided here for informational purposes only, as any sentencings of the defendants would be determined by the judge.

Mr. Bharara praised the outstanding investigative work of the FBI-Hudson Valley White Collar Crime Task Force, the Sullivan County District Attorney’s Office, the Sullivan County Sherriff’s Office, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, the Orange County District Attorney’s Office, the Internal Revenue Service, and the United States Postal Inspection Service.  Mr. Bharara also thanked the Department of Justice’s Public Integrity Section, Election Crimes Branch, for its assistance in the case.

The Bloomingburg story has been going on for years. A lot of hatred of orthodox jews shows it's ugly face in upstate New York. If they face prison time, I hope they end up in Otisville CAMP, which caters to Orthodox Jews .  To read my story, go here...https://www.amazon.com/PRISON-expect-Federal-Bureau-Prisons-ebook/dp/B011GTWLOG

Jewish hackers arrested by USA

According to the feds..".Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, William F. Sweeney Jr., Assistant Director-in-Charge of the New York Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”), and David E. Beach, Special Agent in Charge of the U.S. Secret Service New York Field Office (“USSS”), announced that JOSHUA SAMUEL AARON, a/k/a “Mike Shields,” was arrested earlier today at John F. Kennedy International Airport.  AARON, along with defendant Gery Shalon, a/k/a “Garri Shalelashvili,” a/k/a “Gabriel,” a/k/a “Gabi,” a/k/a “Phillipe Mousset,” a/k/a “Christopher Engeham,” is charged with crimes arising out of Shalon’s and AARON’s orchestration of massive computer hacking crimes against U.S. financial institutions, brokerage firms, and financial news publishers, including the largest theft of customer data from a U.S. financial institution in history.  Shalon and AARON are charged with committing these crimes in furtherance of securities market manipulation schemes that Shalon and AARON perpetrated with defendant Ziv Orenstein, a/k/a “Aviv Stein,” a/k/a “John Avery.”  AARON will be presented this afternoon in Manhattan federal court before U.S. Magistrate Judge James C. Francis IV.  AARON is expected to appear before United States District Judge Laura Taylor Swain tomorrow at 10:30 a.m.  The charges against AARON, Shalon, and Orenstein were made public on November 10, 2015.  (To read the November 10, 2015, press release, click here.)

Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said: “Joshua Samuel Aaron allegedly worked to hack into the networks of dozens of American companies, ultimately leading to the largest theft of personal information from U.S. financial institutions ever.  For pursuing what we have called ‘hacking as a business model,’ and thanks to the efforts of the FBI and the U.S. Secret Service, Aaron will now join his co-defendants to face justice in a Manhattan federal courtroom.”

FBI Assistant Director William F. Sweeney Jr. said:  “Today, Josh Aaron was taken into the custody of the FBI to face charges filed against him more than a year and a half ago for his alleged role orchestrating a massive computer hack into U.S. financial institutions, brokerage firms, and financial news publishers and for his role in a multimillion-dollar stock manipulation scheme.”

U.S. Secret Service Special Agent in Charge David E. Beach said:  “The arrest of this alleged transnational cybercriminal illustrates the dedication of the Secret Service and reach of the U.S. Government in the disruption and dismantling of global criminal networks.  The precedent set by this successful United States deportation should serve as a warning to criminals that the Secret Service will relentlessly investigate, detect, and defend the Nation’s financial infrastructure both domestically and internationally.”

Shalon and Orenstein were arrested by Israeli authorities in July 2015, and were extradited from Israel in June 2016."

My only hope for these guys is that they regret what they did and if they have to spend time, they should end up in Otisville camp so they can be with Jewish people and have a sabbath and temple to pray.

Tax Preparer gets a break in 30 months imprisonment

According to the feds, "Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, announced that CHRISTOPHER AHERN was sentenced today to 30 months in prison for preparing and filing false and fraudulent tax returns that claimed more than $4.7 million in credits and expenses.  AHERN pled guilty on July 5, 2016, before United States District Judge Deborah A. Batts, who imposed today’s sentence.

Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said:  “Christopher Ahern used his clients’ tax returns to bilk the IRS of more than $3 million in fraudulent credits, pocketing more than a million dollars in fees.  But because of the investigative efforts of the IRS, Ahern’s dishonest business is closed.”

According to the allegations in the Information to which AHERN pled guilty, other documents filed in Manhattan federal court, and statements made in court proceedings:

AHERN, owned and operated a tax preparation business called Get My Refund Fast, located in the Bronx, New York.  From 2012 through 2013, AHERN’s business prepared and submitted to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) nearly 5,000 tax returns.  These tax returns were false and fraudulent in that they claimed education credits to which the clients were not entitled.  The IRS issued approximately $3 million pursuant to the false and fraudulent returns AHERN filed.  AHERN received more than $1.5 million in fees from his clients for preparing and filing the fraudulent returns. 

*                *                *

In addition to his prison term, AHERN, 40, of Little Neck, New York, was sentenced to three years of supervised release and ordered to pay $3 million in restitution."

People get a lot more time for the amount of money he stole for the government. I got 5 five years for 2.5 million dollar fraud. The guy should be thankful.

CFO gets two years prison term

According to the feds, "Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, announced that NORMAN D’SOUZA, the former chief financial officer and vice president of finance of a New Jersey-based furniture wholesaler and retailer (“Company-1”) and an Indiana-based furniture manufacturer affiliated with Company-1 (“Company-2”) (collectively, the “Companies”), was sentenced yesterday to two years in prison for orchestrating a fraudulent scheme to obtain $17 million in loans from a commercial bank based in New York, New York (the “Bank”), and $1 million in municipal loans from Gas City, Indiana (the “City”).  D’SOUZA and his co-conspirators obtained this financing by making false statements and providing false and fraudulent documents concerning the Companies’ financial condition.  D’SOUZA pled guilty on April 1, 2016, before U.S. District Judge Ronnie Abrams, who imposed yesterday’s sentence.  

Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said:  “Norman D’Souza repeatedly misrepresented the financial condition of two companies to deceive a bank and a municipality into lending the companies millions of dollars.  He will now spend time in a federal prison for his crimes.”

According to the allegations contained in the criminal information to which D’SOUZA pled guilty, other documents filed in Manhattan federal court, and statements made in court proceedings:

From 2011 until September 2014, Company-1, through D’SOUZA and others, fraudulently induced the Bank into lending Company-1 millions of dollars by repeatedly making false and misleading statements about Company-1’s financial condition.  D’SOUZA falsely inflated Company-1’s sales and accounts receivable on “borrowing base certificates” and in financial statements that D’SOUZA provided to the Bank pursuant to loan agreements.  D’SOUZA used those falsely inflated sales and accounts receivable to mislead the Bank about Company-1’s true financial performance, which enabled Company-1 to secure and draw down a $17 million revolving credit facility from the Bank.  Company-1 ultimately defaulted on the loans issued by the Bank in September 2014.  At that time, the outstanding balance of the loans was approximately $16.99 million.

Separately, in 2012, the City offered loans and other financial incentives to Company-2 in return for Company-2’s agreement to operate a furniture factory in the City and employ local residents.  To secure this arrangement, among other things, D’SOUZA falsely inflated Company-2’s sales figures in financial statements provided to the City.  The false financial statements misled the City about Company-2’s true financial performance and enabled Company-2 to secure and draw down more than $1 million in loans from the City.  Company-2 ultimately defaulted on the loans issued by the City in September 2014, causing approximately 60 City residents to lose their jobs.  At that time, the outstanding balance of the loans was $1 million.

*                *                *

In addition to his prison term, D’SOUZA, 50, of Monmouth Junction, New Jersey, was sentenced to two years of supervised release, and ordered to pay forfeiture and restitution, both in the amount of $12,256,871.48."

I think for the amount of money he stole on behalf of the company, he is lucky he did not get 20 years.
My forfeiture is 2.5 million and I got five year sentence. There is a lot of sentencing disparity. To see what he can expect in federal prison, go here...https://www.amazon.com/PRISON-expect-Federal-Bureau-Prisons-ebook/dp/B011GTWLOG

Indians get busted in bribery kickback scheme

According to the feds, "Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and Philip R. Bartlett, Inspector-in-Charge of the New York Office of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service (“USPIS”), announced the unsealing of charges today against NIMESH PATEL, a former information technology employee at a large national nonprofit organization (the “Society”) and DILIP VADLAMUDI, the owner of an information technology outsourcing company located in Indiana, for engaging in a bribery and kickback scheme.  PATEL was arrested this morning in New Jersey, and was presented today before United States Magistrate Judge Katharine H. Parker.  VADLAMUDI was arrested this morning in Indiana, and was expected to be presented US v. Patel and Vadlamudi indictment.pdftoday before a Magistrate Judge in Indianapolis. 

U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said:  “As alleged, the defendants conspired to defraud a national nonprofit organization.  Patel allegedly abused his position at the nonprofit to funnel millions in fees to Vadlamudi’s company in exchange for hundreds of thousands in kickbacks.  Thanks to the investigative work of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, the defendants’ alleged fraud scheme has been put to an end.”

USPIS Inspector-in-Charge Philip R. Bartlett said:  “These individuals took advantage of their business relationship by devising a scheme to ‘fatten their wallets,’ while having no regard for the victimized nonprofit organization.  Postal Inspectors will always be on the forefront of bringing criminals to justice for their greedy misdeeds against the American public.”

As alleged in the Indictment unsealed today in Manhattan federal court:[1]           

The Society is a large nonprofit health care organization with national headquarters in Westchester, New York.  PATEL was employed as a senior director in the information technology group at the Society.  During the time PATEL worked at the Society, he signed acknowledgements of its conflict-of-interest policy, which prohibited employees from soliciting or accepting payments from any individual or organization that had business with the Society.  VADLAMUDI owned a company headquartered in Indiana (“VADLAMUDI Company-1”) that, among other things, acted as a temporary staffing company for information technology (“IT”) professionals.  VADLAMUDI Company-1 had a contract with the Society pursuant to which Society employees, including PATEL, were authorized to hire temporary employees on behalf of the Society from VADLAMUDI Company-1.

From in or about October 2012 through in or about September 2014, PATEL hired numerous temporary IT employees from VADLAMUDI Company-1, which caused the Society to pay VADLAMUDI Company-1 millions of dollars in fees.  During that same time period, VADLAMUDI paid PATEL approximately $274,000 in kickbacks.  PATEL and VADLAMUDI exchanged emails regarding this kickback scheme.  For instance, on a regular basis PATEL and VADLAMUDI exchanged spreadsheets listing the names of VADLAMUDI Company-1 temporary IT employees hired by the Society, along with a kickback amount calculated per employee.

In order to make payments to PATEL, VADLAMUDI used a bank account associated with a different company he controlled to transfer approximately $274,000 to the bank account for a shell corporation set up by PATEL.  PATEL used that money for his personal expenses, including $80,000 toward a down payment on his residence and over $100,000 transferred into his personal bank account.

When the Society conducted an investigation into allegations of bribery and kickbacks in the IT department in the fall of 2014, PATEL falsely denied receiving money from VADLAMUDI.

*                      *                      *

PATEL, 45, of Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey, and VADLAMUDI, 45, of Carmel, Indiana, are both charged in three counts: one count of conspiracy to commit honest services wire fraud; one count of conspiring to violate the Travel Act; and one count of conspiring to commit money laundering.  Counts One and Three each carry a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.  Count Two carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison.  The maximum potential sentences in this case are prescribed by Congress and are provided here for informational purposes only, as any sentencing of the defendants will be determined by the judge."

In a story that is hard to believe, a fake US Embassy was shut down in Ghana. See story here in AL Jazeerahttp://www.aljazeera.com/news/2016/12/fake-embassy-ghana-shut-161204134951457.html

I wonder if the people arrested will be extradited to the United States.

Man in a bird cage

Busted Man and his parrot

According to the NY Post, a mugshot with a bird went viral when an owner of a bird got arrested and his bird flew the coop, landing 40 feet up in a tree. The cops took the arrested man to bring the tropical macau back to safety. But for the fun of it, they took a mug shot of the man and his bird. The man will now be going to the bird cage and hopefully the parrot will be set free.

Greek Doctor charged with Oxycodone distribution in Manhattan

Dr. Emmanuel Lambrakis, criminally charged in a federal case

According to the feds..."Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, James J. Hunt, Special Agent in Charge of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s New York Division (“DEA”), James P. O’Neill, the Commissioner of the New York City Police Department (“NYPD”), and Maria T. Vullo, Superintendent of the New York State Department of Financial Services, announced the arrest of Dr. EMMANUEL LAMBRAKIS, a state licensed doctor who wrote thousands of medically unnecessary prescriptions for oxycodone, totaling nearly 2.4 million pills, over a five-year period.  LAMBRAKIS was arrested yesterday in connection with the charge and is expected to be presented before U.S. Magistrate Judge James L. Cott later today.  

U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said:  “Although licensed as a doctor, as alleged, Emmanuel Lambrakis was a prolific and dangerous drug dealer.  He allegedly pumped medically unnecessary oxycodone pills into our communities, feeding the addiction of countless people.  This arrest is a critical part of our overall fight against the devastating opioid abuse epidemic.”

Special Agent in Charge James C. Hunt said:  “Drug dealers selling scripts for money give doctors a bad name.  The dismantling of a modern day opium den masquerading as a medical clinic in the heart of Queens shows the result of law enforcement collaboration.  The investigation identified that Emmanuel Lambrakis allegedly diverted oxycodone pills to New York City streets enabling the one thing law enforcement, communities, and health professionals are trying to avoid – opioid addiction and overdose deaths.”     

Superintendent Maria T. Vullo said:  “New York is a safer place because law enforcement authorities worked together to shut down the criminal activities this defendant pursued to enrich himself while endangering the public.  The Department of Financial Services appreciates the opportunity to have worked on this case with the office of U.S. Attorney Bharara and the Drug Enforcement Administration.”

The following allegations are based on the Complaint and other documents filed in Manhattan federal court[1]:

Oxycodone is a highly addictive, narcotic opioid that is used to treat severe and chronic pain conditions.  Oxycodone prescriptions are in high demand and have significant cash value to drug dealers.  In fact, oxycodone tablets can be resold on the street for thousands of dollars.  For example, 30-milligram oxycodone tablets have a current street value of approximately $20 to $30 per tablet in New York City, with street prices even higher in other parts of the country.  A single prescription for 120 30-milligram tablets of oxycodone can net an illicit distributor $2,400 in cash or more.

From at least approximately January 2011 until December 2016, EMMANUEL LAMBRAKIS operated two medical clinics in Queens, New York, where LAMBRAKIS wrote thousands upon thousands of prescriptions for large quantities of oxycodone in exchange for cash payments.  LAMBRAKIS typically charged $150 in cash for “patient visits,” and these visits often involved numerous “patients” being seen by LAMBRAKIS at the same time in the same examination room.  During these “patient visits,” LAMBRAKIS would perform simple, perfunctory body manipulations (such as rotating the patient’s arm or leg) and engage in little or no conversation with the alleged “patient.”  Nonetheless, LAMBRAKIS would then cause the patient to receive a prescription for a large quantity of oxycodone, most often 120 30-milligram tablets or more.

Between January 2011 and the present, LAMBRAKIS wrote approximately 17,000 oxycodone prescriptions at one of his clinics, resulting in the distribution of nearly 2.4 million oxycodone tablets, which have a street value of at least $48 million.  On over 200 occasions, LAMBRAKIS wrote 30 or more prescriptions for 30-milligram oxycodone pills in a single day. As a result of LAMBRAKIS’s actions, it is estimated that LAMBRAKIS collected at least $2.5 million in fees from his “patients.”

*               *               *

LAMBRAKIS, 69, of Manhattan, is charged with one count of conspiring to distribute and possess with intent to distribute oxycodone.  This offense carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.  The maximum potential sentence is prescribed by Congress and is provided here for informational purposes only, as any sentencing of the defendant will be determined by the judge."

In my opinion, Lambrakis , if he pleads guilty may get up to five years prison as the feds hit me with a 2.5 forfeiture and I got five years imprisonment. I also feel prison is too harsh a punishment for a 69 year old man.  There will be no sipping of wine in federal prison. The most he can get is grape juice for religious ceremonies.

five persons charged in mortgage fraud

According to the feds. "Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, William F. Sweeney Jr., the Assistant Director-in-Charge of the New York Field Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”), and Christina Scaringi, the Special Agent-in-Charge of the Northeast Region of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”), today announced the unsealing of an Indictment charging five defendants with conspiracy to commit bank fraud, wire fraud, and mail fraud in connection with a debt-elimination scheme to defraud homeowners and banks.

Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara stated:  “The defendants allegedly preyed on vulnerable homeowners struggling with their mortgage payments and, with their greed, victimized them further.  When the defendants were done with the victims, after falsely promising to reduce or even eliminate their mortgage debt for fees, these homeowners were left much worse off, in even greater debt.  With the charges today, and thanks to the investigative work of the FBI and HUD, the defendants now face federal fraud charges.”

FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge William F. Sweeney stated:  “As charged, the defendants exploited a program designed to help cost-burdened individuals enjoy the privilege of affordable housing.  Crimes of this nature not only hurt their victims financially, but often force upon them other forms of anguish while harming the financial integrity of the very programs established to help them. We urge everyone to protect themselves against this type of fraud and abuse.  If something doesn’t sound right, trust your instincts and do some checking. If you think you may be or have been a victim of mortgage fraud, we urge you to contact your nearest FBI office.”

HUD-OIG Special Agent-in-Charge Christina Scaringi stated:  “HUD’s reverse mortgage program was created to help our senior citizens find greater financial security through FHA-insured loans.  The defendants’ alleged scheme to unjustly enrich themselves through the victimization of our senior citizens is a shameful act that will not be tolerated by the HUD OIG.  We will continue to aggressively pursue those who would prey on America’s senior citizens and encourage anyone having knowledge of such schemes to contact our HUD hotline.”

As alleged in the Indictment unsealed today in White Plains federal court[1]:

In at least 2011 and 2012, BRUCE LEWIS, 65, JACQUELINE GRAHAM, 47, and an unindicted co-conspirator were partners in a business that they called the Pillow Foundation or the Terra Foundation (collectively, “Terra”).  Terra held itself out as a business that would investigate and eliminate mortgage debt in exchange for a fee.  Terra solicited clients who were having difficulties making their mortgage payments.

ANTHONY VIGNA, 59, was a lawyer who worked in-house at Terra and provided legal services to it and its clients.  ROCCO CERMELE, 54, was Terra’s director of operations who recruited clients, among other duties.  PAULA GUADAGNO, 58, was a real estate title professional who performed real estate title work for Terra.

LEWIS, GRAHAM, VIGNA, CERMELE, GUADAGNO, and others at Terra told potential clients that Terra could eliminate their mortgage debt in exchange for a fee.  In reality, Terra filed fraudulent discharges of mortgages at local county clerk’s offices in Westchester and Putnam Counties and in Connecticut.  These fraudulent documents made it appear as if Terra’s clients’ mortgages had been discharged, when in fact they had not. 

To profit from their scheme, Terra and the defendants charged monthly fees that they said covered, among other things, audits of the clients’ properties that they often failed to perform.  Terra and the defendants also encouraged their clients to take out second or reverse mortgages on the properties for which Terra had claimed to have discharged the first mortgages.  Once the clients had taken out these second or reverse mortgages, Terra and the defendants retained substantial portions of the proceeds.  Some of these second or reverse mortgages were made under HUD’s Home Equity Conversion Mortgage Program.

In total, Terra and the defendants filed nearly 60 fraudulent discharges in Westchester and Putnam Counties in New York and in Connecticut.  The fraudulent discharges claimed to discharge mortgages with a total loan principal of over $33 million.  In reality, the Terra clients for whom the fraudulent discharges were filed were often left with both a second or reverse mortgage and their original mortgage that had not actually been discharged.

*                      *                     *

VIGNA, CERMELE, and GUADAGNO were taken into federal custody this morning and were presented in White Plains federal court this afternoon before U.S. Magistrate Judge Judith C. McCarthy.  LEWIS and GRAHAM remain at large.                                   

Each defendant is charged with one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, bank fraud, and mail fraud, which carries a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison and a $1 million fine.  The statutory maximum penalties are prescribed by Congress and are provided here for informational purposes only, as any sentencings of the defendants would be determined by the judge.

Mr. Bharara praised the outstanding investigative work of the FBI and HUD-OIG.  Mr. Bharara also thanked the Westchester and Putnam County District Attorney’s Offices and the Cheshire Police Department in Cheshire, Connecticut, for their ongoing assistance in the case.

This case is being handled by the Office’s White Plains Division.  Assistant United States Attorneys Jennifer Beidel, Michael Maimin, and James McMahon are in charge of the prosecutions.

US v. Bruce Lewis et al. Indictment.pdfUS v. Bruce Lewis et al. Indictment.pdfThe charges contained in the Indictment are merely accusations, and the defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty."

I went through the same nonsense in federal prison when one thief used my name to discharge a mortgage to steal a house. I fought vigorously and eventually the title insurance paid out on the fraudulent mortgage.

It is hard to believe that a lawyer was involved in this fraud but the problem is that money as a bribe blinds people. He will pay dearly for his crime and will have a lot of regret.  I assume the govt found out about this crime when people complained about their mortgages not being paid off.

Debt relief fraudster hit with 70 months imprisonment

According to the feds, "Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, announced that MAURICE SESSUM, the co-owner, chief financial officer, and chief operating officer of a Buffalo, New York-based debt collection company (the “Company”), pled guilty yesterday before Judge Katherine Polk Failla to orchestrating a scheme to coerce thousands of victims across the country, through false threats and representations, into paying a total of more than $31 million to the Company to resolve debts these victims purportedly owed.  In addition, earlier today before Judge Faila, JIMMY STOKES, a Company manager, pled guilty, and TACOBY THOMAS, another Company manager, was sentenced to 70 months in prison for their respective roles in the scheme.  All 14 defendants who were charged for their participation in this fraud have now pled guilty.

U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said:  “Now that all of the 14 defendants behind the largest debt collection scheme ever prosecuted have admitted their guilt, the process of restitution to the thousands of victims across the country can begin.  Thanks to the dedicated work of our Office’s criminal investigators and the Federal Trade Commission, this so-called ‘business’ is no longer able to victimize consumers.”

According to the allegations contained in the Indictment and statements made during the plea proceedings and THOMAS’s sentencing proceeding:

Between 2010 and February 2015, SESSUM was the co-owner, chief financial officer, and chief operating officer of the Company.  In that capacity, SESSUM, together with his co-defendant and co-owner, Travell Thomas, oversaw four debt collection offices operated by the Company in Buffalo and a team of managers and debt collectors.  As part of the scheme, SESSUM and Travell Thomas falsely inflated the balances of debts owed by consumers in the Company’s debt collection software so that debt collectors could collect more money from the victims than the victims actually owed.   

SESSUM approved debt collection scripts that contained a variety of misrepresentations and instructed his collectors to make those misrepresentations to consumers over the telephone.  The Company’s debt collectors, in turn, attempted to trick and coerce thousands of victims throughout the United States into paying millions of dollars in consumer debts through a variety of false statements and false threats.  Among other things, STOKES misrepresented to victims that he would have a bench warrant issued for their arrest, would contact the “county” to initiate legal proceedings, and was not calling from a collection agency.  Among other things, THOMAS misrepresented to victims that he was a “process server” from “U.S. Couriers” with “legal documents” to serve on victims, that victims had committed “check fraud,” and that THOMAS was calling from an “arbitration firm.”

In total, from about January 2010 through November 2014, the Company collected over $31 million from thousands of victims across the United States.  Of the money that the Company took in from victims, approximately $1.5 million was paid in cash to SESSUM and Travell Thomas, approximately $1.4 million was withdrawn from banks and ATMs, and tens of thousands of dollars were used to pay for SESSUM’s personal expenses.

*                *                *

SESSUM, 40, of Buffalo, New York, and STOKES, 39, of Charlotte, North Carolina, each pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and one count of wire fraud, each of which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison and three years of supervised release.  The maximum potential sentences in this case are prescribed by Congress and provided here for informational purposes only, as any sentencing of the defendants will be determined by the judge.  SESSUM is scheduled to be sentenced by Judge Failla on March 1, 2017, at 3:00 p.m.   STOKES is scheduled to be sentenced by Judge Failla on May 18, 2017.

In addition to his prison term, THOMAS, 34, of Buffalo, New York, was sentenced to three years of supervised release, and ordered to pay forfeiture in the amount of $896,605.03.

In total, 14 individuals associated with the Company have pled guilty to defrauding consumers as part of this debt collection scheme.  In addition to SESSUM, STOKES, and THOMAS, co-owner and chief executive officer Travell Thomas, former Company mangers Heather Gasta, Mark Lavin, and John Salatino, and debt collectors Jessica Mann, Charles Starks, William Clark, Anthony Caba, Columbus Simmons, Michael Calandra, and Jennifer Sherk, each pled guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud.

Starks, Clark, Calandra, and Mann were sentenced by Judge Failla to prison terms of 37 months, 30 months, 15 months, and one year and one day, respectively.  The sentencing of the other defendants who have pled guilty is pending. "

NY Pharmacist gets 4 year prison sentence

Pharmacy of  Convicted Pharmacist

According to the feds...Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, announced that LILIAN JAKACKI, a/k/a/ “Lilian Wieckowski,” was sentenced today by U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff to four years in prison for illegally distributing 100,000 tablets of oxycodone, Medicare fraud, and money laundering.  JAKACKI pled guilty on July 28, 2016, before Judge Rakoff.

Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said:  “Through her pharmacies in Queens and Brooklyn, Lilian Jakacki dumped 100,000 illegally diverted oxycodone pills into the City’s streets.  Driven by greed, Jakacki abused her pharmacy license, helping to fuel the opioid abuse epidemic that is ravaging too many of our communities.  For her crimes, Jakacki will spend four years in prison and forfeit her ill-gotten gains.”           

According to the allegations in the Indictment and the civil Complaint, and other information in the public record:

Between in or about March 2010 and October 2015, JACKACKI owned and operated two pharmacies in Queens and Brooklyn doing business as “Chopin Chemists.”  During that time period, at these pharmacies, JACKACKI knowingly distributed approximately 100,000 tablets of oxycodone based on fraudulent prescriptions, including prescriptions made out in the names of famous luxury brands, such as Coach and Chanel.  In addition, JACKACKI used the proceeds of that illegal narcotics trade to help finance the purchase of a multimillion-dollar home.  Finally, JACKACKI deliberately overbilled Medicare by more than $500,000, submitting reimbursement claims for medication that she never actually distributed to patients. 

In addition to the prison term, JACKACKI was also directed to forfeit $800,000 and to pay restitution of $520,000.  " 

What was this person thinking , that she would never get caught? Obviously, her money was her drug and she was blinded by it. She will now pay a heavy price for breaking American law.

Will she end up in a camp? Depends on her security level and record of violence, if any. Most likely, she will do her time in a camp.
