I'm glad America is waking up to the Jeet threat. We need to be doing
way more deportations of these "college students." They're literally leeches sucking the retirement savings out of our elderly.
Indian national arrested in scam targeting elderly Delaware County man
Venkateswara Chagamreddy, 27, of Austin, Texas, is charged in Delaware County District Court in Jay with conspiracy, extortion by means not amounting to robbery, and second-degree forgery, all felonies.
Online court records show he is held in the Delaware County jail on a $200,000 bond.
The elderly man who lives in rural Afton told investigators he was contacted by what he believed to be someone from Microsoft on Aug. 11, saying his computer was being used for criminal activity, according to an arrest warrant.
The caller told the alleged victim he needed to surrender to the federal government.
Later, the elderly man was contacted by telephone from a person who identified himself as “Federal Officer David J Morgan,” saying the Delaware County man was a victim of identity theft and he was being investigated because his personal computer was used for child porn, weapons dealings, drugs, and the “dark web.”
The elderly man was warned that he would face additional charges if he spoke to anyone about being under investigation, the affidavit states. After being “sworn to secrecy,” he was told to transfer $64,331.58 from his bank account to gold. The affidavit states that an “officer” would come by his residence the following day to pick up the gold.
The Delaware County man told investigators that after liquidating his bank account and purchasing the gold, he was required to validate his possession of the gold through text messages and photographs.
On Aug. 22, a “medium-colored” African American man arrived at his residence in a dark-colored Tundra truck arrived at his residence. The man partially rolled down his window and provided the elderly man with a passcode, prompting the man to turn over the package containing the gold pieces.
Over the next several days, the “officer” contacted the Delaware County man and eventually learned he had approximately $1 million in his retirement accounts. The elderly man was allegedly instructed to speak to his financial advisor and ask for $200,000 to $300,000 for hotels in Hong Kong. The demand was later raised to $500,000, the affidavit states.
The elderly man told investigators he was afraid and eventually contacted his financial advisor and son, who contacted law enforcement.
Delaware County investigators set up a “sting” operation to intercept the pickup of a package intended to contain $177,500 at the man’s residence. On Aug. 27, a silver car pulled into the alleged victim’s driveway, past the porch to the side of the house, and was met by investigators. They surrounded the suspect’s vehicle and took Chagamreddy into custody, the affidavit states.
Investigators seized 23 one-ounce gold pieces, a marijuana grinder, rolling papers, ground marijuana, five $100 bills, two cell phones, multiple documents containing air flights, travel patterns, and interstate travel, and “multiple items of Dominion and Control,” the affidavit states.
Chagamreddy told investigators he was at risk of deportation due to a recent suspension from college. He had flown to North Carolina to enroll in a college, but he had left his vehicle parked at the Austin airport. When he returned from his flight, he had just “found” the gold in his car and didn’t know where it came from.
He told investigators he was taking the gold pieces to his friend’s house in Kansas because “Rio” knew what to do with them. He made a wrong turn and ended up at the elderly man’s residence by accident, and he “was not there for any reason, and was just using the driveway to turn around” because “Rio” was helping him find his way, the affidavit states.
Chagamreddy’s cell phone showed photographs of the alleged victim, his property, county road signs, and the “dummy package.” Videos showed Chagamreddy opening and audibly inventorying packages of gold, including the package he advised “showed up” in his vehicle.
The elderly man’s residential address was the last destination searched and was visible on the vehicle’s navigation screen.
