Millions of United States of America citizens aged 65 and over need Medicare health insurance coverage for the health needs of their golden years. Thus, when a criminal like Armen Kazarian preys upon the weak and vulnerable with a Medicare scam, the scale of outrage is tremendous. The newest York Post reports that the Armenian gangster vor (godfather) is allegedly responsible for the largest Medicare health insurance fraud case in United States of America history.
Coast to coast operation run by Armen Kazarian
More than $ 160 million in fake Medicare invoices were generated from 118 fake medical clinics in 25 states under Armen Kazarian’s watch, said United States of America Attorney Preet Bharara. Rented mailboxes and addresses were used for the designed clinics for most of the invoices. Kazarian’s men generated a ton of fake bills which were from an auto-body business in Brooklyn, N.Y. This meant over $ 35 million went to that fake office. This is something that makes people need short term cash. The fixed income leads it there.
Disembowelment had been mixed with money laundering and Extortion
In California, Georgia, New Mexico and Ohio there are defendants being charged. The Post accounts that you will find 73 total defendants. 35 year old Robert Terdjanian of Brooklyn is one of the defendants. He had been allegedly the East Coast ringleader of Armen Kazarian’s gang, and charges against him include threatening to disembowel one of his extortion victims. The Kazarian group is being charged with the illegal sell of untaxed cigarettes, Viagra and narcotics which had been led by Davit Mirzoyan of Los Angeles also. Also, strippers were employed by Aron Chervin to file automotive insurance claims that were not actually true. Various suspects are accused of cash laundering via the purchase of LV casino chips.
What occurred with the tape
Armen Kazarian, who’s 46, confronted Medicare patients who were not paying fake medical bills, based on federal authorities. He had been the first ever charged with racketeering the U.S.. Attorneys for the accused have indicated that their Armenian clients plan to plead not guilty on all charges.
