“紅通人員”徐進劉芳移民欺詐細節曝光
美方已就此展開調查
今年4月，美國FBI突擊搜查了位於美國聖蓋博穀地區的加州投資移民基金，從中牽涉出中國“百名紅通”第13號徐進以及第66號的劉芳。兩人均涉嫌移民欺詐。
美國聯邦探員對這家投資移民事務所進行突襲，源於一項長達5年多的秘密跟蹤調查。根據法庭文件，這家移民事務所涉嫌開設虛假投資移民項目騙取資金，涉案金額逾5000萬美元。
據了解，已被FBI調查的陳瑩瑩(Victoria Chan)、陳達(Tat Chan)、曾芳(Zeng Fang)三人，二陳係父女，曾芳係陳達情婦。陳達和曾芳在廣州開辦了大九洲移民公司，而加州投資移民基金法人就是陳瑩瑩。
根據有關司法部門公布的情況，徐進、劉芳兩人正是為了逃避中國法律製裁，編造虛假收入證明和虛假身份證明，向美國申報虛假投資項目，通過大九州移民公司辦理了投資移民，從而獲得美國臨時綠卡。中國司法部門的一份調查報告顯示，大九州移民公司不具備辦理移民資質。
大九州移民公司員工在接受中國司法部門詢問時稱，劉芳當時提供了在湖北南順儲油有限公司股東、經理的身份資料，並出示了納稅、年度收入和分紅的證明資料。而當時劉芳的真實身份是中國人民財產險股份有限公司湖北省分公司的一名經理。該公司出示的一份免職通知顯示，2007年8月28日，劉芳才被該公司解聘。但她2007年8月8日正式提交給大九州移民公司的資料中，她竟搖身一變成了湖北南順儲油有限公司的經理。
湖北南順儲油有限公司法人呂某（已被另案處理）向司法部門供認，為使移民手續順利獲批，徐進要求他提供了劉芳的虛假任職證明和收入證明。“但實際上劉芳從來沒有在湖北南順儲油有限公司任職，也沒有在公司獲得任何利潤，這些信息隻要查看公司報表就能很輕易得知。”呂某交代，他除了幫助提供虛假身份資料，同時向徐進行賄了巨額美金給其妻子劉芳，用於辦理投資移民所需所有款項。
移民美國後，劉芳EB-5申報的投資美國LF公司Waldorf語言學校項目，經美國司法部門反饋，並未實際執行。FBI探員發現，劉芳和另一人員提供的創造10個相關就業是重合的，這不符合美國移民法律規定。
星島環球網曾報道稱，據美方統計，近年來人們對EB-5投資移民簽證的興趣大漲。2005年該簽證隻發放了350份，2015年增至9500份，其中85%發放給了中國人。與此同時，這些年來自中國的資金大量湧入洛杉磯聖蓋博穀地區，導致該地區房價上升，高端餐飲業也隨之行情大漲。
《洛杉磯時報》今年1月11日曾報道了美沒收“紅通”貪官喬建軍前妻趙世蘭在美房產案。綜合《洛杉磯時報》與美國《僑報》網站消息，趙世蘭申報EB-5項目投資移民案，情形與徐進、劉芳的移民欺詐，無論從手法還是細節上都如出一轍。
今年7月、8月，美國司法部駐華法律顧問與湖北武漢司法機關就徐進、劉芳案件的中美司法合作事項進行兩輪磋商。相關人員介紹了徐進、劉芳移民欺詐的細節，中美雙方就共同打擊腐敗以及移民欺詐證據的交換達成一致意見。
美國司法部長訪華接受中國媒體采訪時曾表示，其實美國不歡迎任何腐敗分子，不歡迎任何實施了公共腐敗行為的人員留在美國。
中方代表說，徐進、劉芳實施了公共腐敗行為，移民過程中身份造假的證據和辦理移民的犯罪資金已經被完全掌握，目前正在加快整理，以期盡快提交美方，方便美方就徐進、劉芳移民欺詐一事展開充分調查。
Exposure of Details on Immigration Fraud by Xu Jin and Liu Fang in “Red Notice”
For this purpose, the U.S. side has launched an investigation
In April 2017, the FBI raided the California Investment Immigration Fund in San Gabriel Valley, USA, from which Xu Jin and Liu Fang listed as number 13 and number 66 respectively on China’s 100 most wanted list were exposed. They are both alleged immigration fraud.
Raiding this Investment Immigration Firm by the FBI agents followed the secret tracking and investigation for more than 5 years. The court documents allege that this Immigration Firm involves defrauding money of more than USD 50 million by exploiting the investment immigration program.
It is known that Victoria Chan (陳瑩瑩), Tat Chan(陳達) and Zeng Fang(曾芳) have been investigated. Victoria Chan is Tat Chan’s daughter, while Zeng Fang is Tat Chan’s mistress. Tat Chan and Zeng Fang established the Great Nation Group in Guangzhou, while Victoria Chan is the legal person of the California Investment Immigration Fund.
According to the information published by the relevant judicial authority, Xu Jin and Liu Fang applied for the U.S. immigration program for the purpose of escaping the legal punishment of China, for which the false proofs of income and identification were provided, and obtained the U.S. Conditional Green Card through the Great Nation Group. According to an investigation report from the China’s judicial authority, the Great Nation Group is not qualified for investment immigration.
The employee(s) of the Great Nation Group inquired by the China’s judicial authority said that Liu Fang then provided the identity materials of a shareholder and manager of Hubei Nanshun Oil Storage Co., Ltd. as well as the proof of tax payment, annual income and participation in profit. However, Liu Fang, as a matter fact, then acted as a manager in Hubei Branch of PICC Property and Casualty Company Limited. The notice of dismissal provided such this Branch shows that Liu Fang was dismissed on August 28, 2007. However, the materials furnished to the Great Nation Group on August 8, 2007 show that she was a manager of the Hubei Nanshun Oil Storage Co., Ltd..
Mr. Lv, the legal person of Hubei Nanshun Oil Storage Co., Ltd. (whose case is handled separately) confessed to the judicial authority that Xu Jin required him to provide the false certificate of incumbency and income for Liu Fang for the purpose of facilitating the immigration procedures. “Actually, Liu Fang neither held a post, nor participated in the profit sharing in Hubei Nanshun Oil Storage Co., Ltd. All information is readily available in the company reports.” Mr. Lv further confessed that he offered Liu Fang enormous sum of bribes, except for provision of the false identity, which was used for all of the payment for the investment immigration.
After immigration to the USA, An investment to be made in the Waldorf language school program of LF Company, USA in accordance with the EB-5 of Liu Fang was not realized according to the feedback of the U.S. Department of Justice. The FBI agents found that 10 new American jobs created by Liu Fang and someone else as required in the EB-5 are same, which is not consistent with the U.S. investment immigration laws and regulations.
stnn.cc reported that according to the American statistics, more and more people have keen interest in the EB-5 investment immigration visa in recent years. In 2005, only 350 visas were approved and issued, and increased to 9,500 in 2015, 85% of which were issued to the Chinese. Meanwhile, the housing price rose with a lot of money from China flowing to the San Gabriel Valley, L.A., which promoted the high-end catering industry.
