S Thomas Scamming Indian Community Elizabeth, New Jersey

Mr. George has a long history of financial fraud and deceit. He originally came to America after facing a criminal charge against him in the Mancherry First Class Magistrate Court of Kerala, India. He was exonerated after offering bribes to local police and obtained a passport to leave the country thereafter. While in America, he engaged in various plans to embezzle money. One of his primary schemes included borrowing funds from friends and family with no intent to repay. Mr. George has victimized many people of the Indian community, most of whom have suffered significant losses. He eventually filed bankruptcy in New Jersey and was able to have the courts forgive his debt obligations.
 
Mr. George moved to Florida, believing he could erase his history while continuing his fraudulent behavior.  The bankruptcy that he filed in New Jersey greatly damaged his credit, prohibiting him from qualifying for loans from companies. Therefore, he began an importing business and used that entity as a cover to solicit more private loans from members at his church and other friends and relatives. Although his importing business was a failure, he continued to borrow money. After consulting with other victims, I was able to find out that he defaulted on more than $250,000 in loans. Most of what he received was not used for his business, but instead his personal use. In the sixteen years that Mr. George has been living in America, he has lived a life of fraud. Since the creation of his first business, he has created multiple other businesses (Fishnet, Alpha International Trading Llc, Jas Communications, Mist Trading Co Inc, Divine Imports, Global Charitable Foundation), under multiple aliases and phone numbers. He has manipulated many people in the Indian community by living off of their loans. He exhibits the conduct of a professional con artist. Mr. George has found himself in trouble again and he resorted to filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy in the state of Florida. In order to secure his assets, all of his property had been transferred to his wifes and mothers names. Mr. George tried to evade the law again through bankruptcy fraud and succeeded. The courts forgave his debt in July 2011. Given his past history, there is little doubt in my mind that he will continue to take advantage of other people.
