Irving comments: WHY post this story on
our website?
Well, it is a victimless
crime, in a sense: it was all within the
family. And it combines two areas where
Jews feel they are stereotyped, as
fraudsters and porn-merchants.
If they put their house
in order, it will prevent us from
highlighting such stories. |
U.S. authorities
charge 2 Israeli citizens with fraud By Nathan Guttman,
Haaretz Correspondent in the U.S. WASHINGTON -- American federal
authorities over the weekend filed indictments
against two Israeli citizens suspected of
defrauding the owners of several companies of $40
million. Daniel Nishri and his brother
Avner,
former
Israelis who now live in Belgium, were arrested on
Thursday and charged with seven counts of fraud,
which carry a maximum penalty of 35 years in
prison. Most of the acts of fraud were committed against
Ami and Sarit Shafrir, residents of
Los Angeles and the owners of a number of
successful companies for phone sex as well as
internet dating sites, including the popular Jewish
dating site J-Date. The brothers in 1999 met Sarit Shafrir, who was
at the time in the process of divorcing her
husband. Daniel Nishri impersonated a banker and
lawyer and persuaded Shafrir to invest in
fictitious companies, as he gradually gained
control of the assets of five companies owned by
the Shafrirs. According to the indictment, the
brothers transferred the assets from the
Shafrir-owned companies to their fictitious
ventures, filing around 100 legal suits against
Shafrir, with the aim of obtaining all of her
assets.
