Tech Execs Indicted for H-1B Visa Fraud
Breitbart.com ^ | 28 Mar 2017 | John Binder

A pair of tech executives have been indicted for allegedly using false documents to bring in help through the H-1B guest worker program.

Dynasoft Synergy’s Chief Executive Officer Jayavel Murugan, 46, and 40-year-old Syed Nawaz are accused in an unsealed federal grand jury indictment of trying to apply for H-1B visa workers using fraudulent documents and then hiring them out to tech firms, according to Mercury News.

Dynasoft operates as an “employment firm” that essentially leases foreign workers. The company also has an office in India.

According to prosecutors, Murugan and Nawaz used the false documents to replace American workers at Stanford University, Cisco, and Brocade. Nonetheless, the employers were not looking to use the H-1B workers, despite being named in the false documents allegedly produced by the two men.

Murugan and Nawaz are charged with 26 counts including H-1B visa fraud, using fraudulent documents, mail fraud, identity theft, and conspiracy to commit visa fraud.

The federal indictments point to a much bigger problem with the H-1B visa program, where millions of American workers have been ousted to make way for cheaper, foreign workers.

"Jayavel Murugan, 46, and 40-year-old Syed Nawaz"

Doesn't appear that they came over on the Mayflower. Scammers? Does not surprise me one bit. But hey, they bring "diversity" … for all that's worth …

“Jayavel Murugan, 46, and 40-year-old Syed Nawaz”

Oh this is good. And I thought it’d be a low winning day.

I’ve seen and had to fight off scammers like these two in numerous instances.

It amazes me how gullible and greedy managers and business owners are when someone waves ludicrous figures under their noses. ‘200% reduction in IT costs’ etc.

These are the same managers and owners who have spent X dollars when they should have spent at least Y dollars and wonder why their projects are moving slowly. NOW they want to bring in untrained mystery workers with a poor or no command of the English language? How slowly do they think their project will move after the H1B pidgin speakers are put on the job?

Throw them under the jail.

Die, corporate scum.

There are dozens in Silicon Valley (er...Little India) deserving of the same fate.

If not hundreds.

This is article contains great news, as the H-1B program is rife with fraud. However, it applies to 85,000 people each year, no way near millions, even if every visa recipient disappeared into the woodwork every year.

The US issues something like 10 million non-immigrant visas each year. I don’t believe anyone verifies that these visa-holders have left when their visas expire.

Their are also at least one million immigrants accepted into the US each year.

Same here.

For those of you in the tech field, here is one scam I’ve seen a lot of lately. Headhunter (nearly always a foreigner. Why are all the headhunters foreigners?) calls up, tells you about a job, you start talking and then HE ASKS FOR YOUR SS NUMBER.

Sometimes it’s the person from the hiring company that asks. There is NO NEED to get my SS before you hire me. Especially when I haven’t met you in person or seen your brick and mortar place of business.
