Thanks for the info - see post 19.
Re Hsu, have a question for you because of your locale.
Is it difficult to find out when and where Hsu registered this company as a business in the state of New York? The reason for this is simple - if it’s a fresh new company (not even a corporation) with little track record, then most likely nobody in their right mind would even think to invest millions in it, and thus it’s been set up deliberately for express purpose of laundering money.
I found at least 2 different addresses for Hsu’s “Components Ltd” (aka “Next Components Ltd”, aka “Components Limited”, aka “Because Components”, aka “Consultants Ltd”, aka “Because Men’s”), but both with the same phone number - (212) 221-6969:
Components Ltd, 1411 Broadway, New York, NY, 10012
Components Ltd, 561 7th Ave., New York, NY, 10012
This phone number also belongs (or previously belonged) to :
James Stone Limited Holding, 110 West 40th Street, New York, NY 10018 ... Interestingly, Hsu’s “Because Men’s” is also located in 10018 ZIP, but that’s all I could find, so don’t know if it’s the same business.
From Hsu campaign donation records at http://www.newsmeat.com/fec/bystate_detail.php?last=Hsu&first=Norman -
first reference to “Components Ltd” show only that it started on October 22, 2004 ($2000 to Barack Obama for Senate), but used a different ZIP code then - 10016, and continued until June 28, 2007 (shortly before the “trouble” started).
