Un om din Florida condamnat pentru frauda
Diego L. Siman, de 37 de ani, din Miami, Florida, a fost condamnat la 7 ani de inchisoare pentru frauda.
Siman a convins pontentiali investitori ca poate sa ii ajute ca sa cumpere proprietati preluate de banci la preturi sub cele de pe piata, pretinzand ca are informatii confidentiale de la un angajat al bancii. Astfel a fraierit apriximativ 15 persoane carora le-a luat 3,6 milioane de dolari.
Vice presedinte de banca a cauzat o paguba de 5,5 milioane de dolari
Fostul vice-presedinte de la Elmwood Park Bank din metropola Chicago a pledat vinovat pentru acuzatiile de frauda care i s-au adus, prin care banca la care lucra a pierdut 5,5 milioane de dolari. Acesta a facut modificari la cel putin 100 de imprumuturi bancare la un numar de 50 de clienti cauzand prejudiciul amintit.
Acesta a alterat documentele astfel incat sa para ca respectivi clienti erau la zi cu plata ratelor, impiedicand astfel banca sa poata lua masurile legale de colectare a fondurilor de la clienti.
Gonsiewski, in varsta de 56 de ani, din Wood Dale, a pledat vinovat pentru unul din capetele de acuzare urmand ca sentinta sa fie data in 3 decembrie, 2010.
Acesta risca sa ia 30 de ani de inchisoare si 1 milion de dolari amenda. Tinand cont de varsta si faptul ca a cooperat cu autoritatile judiciare, acesta poate sa primeasca pana la 6 ani jumate de inchisoare si obligativitatea de a restitui suma pagubita.
JOHN R. THOMPSON pus sub acuzare pentru frauda bancara
Un avocat georgian pe nume JOHN R. THOMPSON a fost gasit vinovat de catre un grup de jurati, pentru fraude cu imprumuturi bancare.
In 2007, THOMPSON, impreuna cu alti doi complici si-au vandut intre ei, in mod fraudulos o proprietate imobiliara. Acestia au falsificat actele care le-au folosit pentru a lua imprumutul de la Bank of America, in valoare de peste 400,000 de dolari.
THOMPSON si complici lui au impartit intre ei banii iar imediat dupa ce au vandut proprietatea n-au mai platit ratele la banca.
Acesta se pare ca a mai comis impruna cu complici sai si alte fraude intre 2005 si 2008.
