Five Chinese nationals arrested by feds for 'massive' elder fraud scheme

Post by antinet »

Five Chinese nationals allegedly involved in a “massive” multinational scheme with ties to India that defrauded more than 2,000 seniors have been arrested in Southern California and Nevada.

According to the Department of Justice, the men and unnamed co-conspirators operated a ring that successfully bilked elderly Americans out of more than $27 million from 2021 to 2023.

Four of the defendants — Zhao Wang of Henderson, Nevada, and California residents Jiandong Chen, Jun Li and Xin Wang — were arrested on Wednesday in an operation involving 60 officials from federal, state and local agencies. Youfei Gong, the fifth defendant, was arrested in April at his home in San Gabriel, California.

According to court documents, the operation targeted victims with emails, phone calls and pop-up ads in order to get them to contact scam call centers in India.
You have to be another level of piece of shit to target elderly people. Good work shutting down these sub-humans.
