《盐湖城论坛报》今天报道说恶性资金操作中间人杰里米·约翰逊被告隐藏5140万美元，“其中主要是来自操作在线扑克资金支付手续”。
联邦商务委员会早在2010年就起诉过约翰逊，“指控其以最低的手续费在线销售商品，然后从客户的信用卡及储蓄卡上收取巨额未经验证的费用，吸金3亿5000万美元。”
约翰逊在周五的时候否认了这项指控，目前案件还在进行中。
Jeremy Johnson accused of hiding $51.4 million
In an effort to conceal $51.4 million earned mostly by processing online poker payments, St. George businessman and philanthropist Jeremy Johnson moved funds and gold coins and bars back and forth through dozens of shell companies, according to a court-appointed receiver.
Johnson tried to hide the funds and gold after the Federal Trade Commission sued other companies like his and then sent him a letter telling him to preserve all his assets as part of its investigation into his I Works operations, according to a report filed as part of a lawsuit in Las Vegas.
Johnson on Friday denied the allegations, portraying the receiver as out of control and greedy, grabbing for funds it is not entitled to through the lawsuit in which the FTC has sued Johnson and nine former officers and employees.
That $51.4 million is in addition to the nearly $50.4 million in profits Johnson paid himself through I Works companies that sold products online to hundreds of thousands of U.S. consumers, according to court records.
The FTC sued Johnson and nine others in 2010 in federal court in Las Vegas alleging that he sold products online for a minimal handling fee and then charged large unauthorized amounts on consumers’ credit or debit cards, taking in some $350 million.
A U.S. District Court judge appointed Robb Evans & Associates as receiver to take over all the companies and Johnson’s assets in order to preserve them while awaiting the case’s outcome.
In a recent report to the court, the receiver said that in examining records from 35 financial institutions and 25 other businesses, as well as those of 115 known affiliated companies, investigators uncovered 65 previously unknown entities that were “involved in moving funds and concealing” assets.
“A majority of these entities do not appear to have generated any business income and were used as conduits to reroute funds and to commingle and hide funds,” the report said.
