0:00 So, you guys are fans of Nick Shirley, right? My favorite influencer of all time. Well, he's coming after the Asians now. How do you feel about that? >> It depends on which Asian. >> Koreans and Chinese. >> Oh, okay. >> Every race scams. >> Would you like to cut this ribbon for the opening ceremony at a >> Thank you. >> I think though Chinese is usually like, "Duh." Right? But then like when he did the Koreans, I was like, "Hmm, okay." >> I knew that there was going to be like he was eventually going to get to them because we know that their rackets are, you know, the And and they're very organized to where the triads are running it and they just have a bunch of peons doing things they don't even know why they're doing them. But I just thought they would have better covers than this. When they're confronted and they're being asked about these things, their answers are so bad. It's like you should have seen this coming after the Somalians were getting in, the Armenians

0:50 and everybody. You should have at least put a game plan together, but >> That means it's just been going on for so long, huh? >> They're too relaxed. >> All right. So, here's the first one we're going to look at. It's Korean senior daycare in New York and they made 12.9 million in 1 year by fraudulently claiming that they had 7,899 people there. >> [laughter] >> So greedy. >> Yeah, it's freaking extreme, right? Oh, damn. I can't reach the button for the thing. Hold on. >> Well, maybe you're a technological idiot then. >> Damn it. ████ button. Oh, look at the >> who's dumb at Look who's a buffoon now. >> How fast do you >> receive the most amount of money here in Flushing, Queens? >> We have a lot of members. >> How many members do you guys have? >> Uh I don't know. >> Cuz here it says you guys have 7,899. >> information? >> Oh, it's actually from the public databases of CMS and the HHS. >> Do I have to tell you the

1:41 >> But this place doesn't look like it can hold 7,000 people. Uh Well, this is public information cuz it's public tax dollars that you guys are receiving. Yeah, but do you guys have 7,000 members for for instance? >> [laughter] >> Okay, well, that's what you get says you have 7,899 in 2024. And then so that's not true. >> 7,000? >> Yeah, so you guys you guys over billing then? Cuz you guys are getting paid per patient [snorts and clears throat] 1,600 >> [laughter] >> dollars and that's how you guys got 12.9 million dollars in 2024. >> I don't know I don't know how they calculate. But I don't remember I don't I don't remember all the numbers. >> But did you have 7,000? I think you'd remember if you had them. >> No, I don't I don't we don't have 7,000

2:32 members. >> Mhm. So >> Damn, he's straight up saying we don't >> [laughter] >> Well, you like 12.9 million dollars on 7,000 patients and you say there's not 7,000 patients. Are you committing fraud? Like do you are these numbers wrong? 12.9 million dollars? That's a lot of money. >> Get out of here. Dude. It's sucks because I I doubt that dude is even high up enough on the chain. >> Probably some guy that's supposed to manage the ████ staff. >> And he goes there's a somebody a investigator or something coming over here. I don't know. Some kind of journalist but he looks like he's a 12 YEARS OLD. >> [laughter] >> HEY, SOMEBODY GET THIS A TEENAGER OUT OF HERE. >> And there's a ton of these Asian adult daycares. Like even in Monterey Park

3:23 where the old studio was. There's a there's a few of those. >> At the very least at least they had some people that like look like their clients there. >> Yeah, it looked like it was cracking. Yeah, they're not completely like empty. >> Yeah, versus the Somalian ████ was crazy. >> And they're not like stopping you from coming inside with a freaking yeah. >> You can't hear an echo while he's talking. >> Like somebody just got woken up because they knocked on the door. Like what are you doing here? >> Yeah, or it's like not even a business like apartment. >> I haven't really looked into this actual racket but one of claims I saw was that they were paying the people to be there. >> Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cuz they asked that one lady, they were like, AND SHE GOES, "YEAH." And she goes, "Are you paid to be here?" Yeah. >> [laughter] >> Yeah, you got me. YEAH. >> I LIKE WHEN THEY ask protesters that too, and they're like, "Oh yeah, we get like 60 bucks a day. It's pretty sweet." >> Paid protesters. Here's Here's another

4:14 one. I don't know if this is It's another one in New York. They were billing 8,000 patients, but this This went This went even worse with them trying to like lie. I don't know if they're Korean or Chinese, you let me know. >> Okay. >> I couldn't tell at the time. >> Tell immediately by their accent. >> How many patients do you see here do you think per day? >> That's per day? >> Yes. >> Per day? >> Yes. >> Uh we have the register already, but uh um >> Sounds Chinese. >> I have a phone call, sorry. >> Well, just give me a quick >> Yeah, look at that red ass thing in the back. >> Um today I'm not sure because uh You need uh >> Just on average. >> Yeah, yeah, average. Actually 15. 50. We have the two shifts. Yeah, 50 per shift. >> Would it even be possible for you guys to have 8,000 different patients? >> 8,000? >> Yes. >> 8,000 patients?

5:05 >> Yes. >> Actually, I have no idea for that number. >> Would it be possible to have 8,000 [clears throat] patients here? >> 8,000 patients here when? I have no idea for that. >> Throughout the year. Last year. >> Last year? Actually, I don't know. I don't I have no idea for that. >> Would it be possible for you guys to run this daycare to handle 8,000 different patients in one year? Theoretically. >> Who owns the business? >> Um the boss there is the two owners. He I I'm not sure. >> This guy's like a lawyer. >> You must know who owns the business. >> We just have the managers and the owners. >> Have you ever met the owners? >> No, not yet. >> Who's that guy? >> Who's managing the business? >> Um the is the like the the ladies. Yeah, but I really don't know about the others. >> You don't know who employs you?

5:55 >> No, no. I just hired in last week last month. >> Who hired you? >> The managers, too. >> And how long have you all been working here? >> A month. A month. >> All a month? What happened to the people who were here before last month? >> Uh, I've no idea. >> They all left? >> Yeah. >> [laughter] >> Why would everybody leave in in 1 month? >> You know You mean >> So there's stories that everyone the whole place cleared out of employees a month ago. >> They were good until they said we all just started. >> And they're all and they're all new. THEY WERE GOOD >> [laughter] >> I UNDERSTAND THAT ████ that that problem with Chinese language and stuff, too, right? Like at that point I feel like they're just in a panic to just say yes or no to anything that gets people to leave and not thinking anything's being documented, not You know what I

6:45 mean? They're just like, "Yeah." >> What a lot of the time >> Asians know more English, but when they're on the spot, they play the "Oh, sorry. I no English today." >> I think he's playing up the I don't really understand the question type ████ >> Yeah, yeah, that's the move, right? >> Yeah, of course. So easy to do. >> Although he started off like a lawyer. They're like, "Who who owns the place?" He's like, "The owners." >> [laughter] >> If you go into ████ I don't know, Popeyes right here. You think they're going to know? >> What? Know who the owners are? >> Yeah, just go to the guy on the register and be like, "Who Like who owns this spot?" The owner? Like that's a legit Where they ████ up is I don't We all started just like 2 weeks ago. >> [laughter] >> Well, that's the thing where I'm like it's it's like yes, like Steve is actually completely right. Every race

7:35 does fraud, but the Asian frauds, I expected them to have better organization than not give them a dialogue when they get confronted? Like nothing? They don't got a cover? >> So the Asian rackets, they hire their people, bring them over on a work visa, temporarily working, they know a little bit of English, and they're just doing a job and they don't know it's a scam. >> Yeah, they honestly have no idea. >> Yeah, but that's why like if you do have an idea and you're the boss and you don't want your scam to get found out, shouldn't you at least have one thing to say? >> Why would you let them know? You wouldn't let them know. >> No, you don't have to let them know, but you just got to give them a a script. Something to be like if they come in, do this, say this. >> Isn't the whole point of of getting away

8:26 with this kind of scam like you get to sit on a beach somewhere with a laptop? I don't think they even want to be around it. >> What do you mean? The boss? >> Yeah, the boss. >> Oh no, that's what I'm saying. Like what if you like get get better at crime? >> Yeah. >> Like give them a ████ thing to to say or do so that it at least filibusters it instead of like nothing at all. Like they're just like >> I don't think anyone um suspects that a teenage white kid is going to come in and start recording and asking them questions. >> Now they should. >> They think a cop will, you know, like if they see like a boomer white guy come in in a suit, then they're like, "Oh ████ Oh s███." >> That's a boomer white guy in a suit. >> But what does it change for like what you're supposed to say? Like it can't you just like >> I forgot about that. >> I think honestly >> that's literally one of those moments where it's like if you don't have the answer, you like you give them a different number, you like you got to

9:16 speak to this person. I don't know. I got to get back to work. If you're not here as a patient, like this is this is who you got to talk to. That's not my my business. >> That just looks like this branch of the syndicate just is sloppy. You know what I mean? Like >> Yeah. >> Dude running it, why would you even run a children's daycare ever again? This ████ is so lucrative with the adult daycare ████ >> What? Yeah, adult daycare. Well, Well, also because I think for Asians a lot of Asians use adult daycare. So, it's like really I'm not every culture has that as much of a >> Also, imagine this though. You're like a Chinese person, you come in here, you do this scam, you get >> [clears throat] >> $15 in like out after taxes, whatever, you got a couple mil, you bounce. You don't care if it gets caught, you don't care if it goes >> They never bounce though, dude. >> They never bounce.

10:06 >> These guys don't even sound like they live in America. They They sound like they're visiting. >> Well, the bosses? >> The bosses, the owners. >> how I know. Here's how I know. Cuz they have 8,000 patients. You know they started in like 200. Okay. Oh, woah. Okay. And then 1,000. And like, oh, nobody's nobody noticed. Okay. And that's how they get to 8,000. They just kept escalating and getting greedier. >> But then for a lot of these like triads and and uh and organizations, they that's the goal from the start. They know they're going to make these like fake-ass things. And they And they do that with all the businesses. So, it's it's kind of like a weird thing. >> Which also means that they know that a couple of them are going to be caught. And when a couple of them do get caught like those drug busts in movies and ████ too, right? It's like, this one went down, so all the other ones get shifted or moved or something happens. If it's a larger, broader scheme or scam.

10:56 >> Yeah, that's the thing that it's like people Some people visualize that there's a boss, like a singular guy that just has all this money. >> You mean on a beach with a laptop? >> [laughter] >> Yeah, but it's more like it's an organization and by that point the money the money's just all over the place. It's like not even like they're they're better with with finances than that. Like it's not one guy just in the one account. >> shut this place down, but they won't stop like where the money all like already got spent. >> can just open another one. It's like It's like smog shop scams. Like they just rotate them. And then they put the put in the name of their aunt or uncle or whatever, and they just keep going. >> It's like smog shops in general. Just a complete ████ scam. >> Yeah, it's like imagine another layer of scam. >> [laughter] >> It's like scam scam. That's how it is in Huntington Park. That my neighbor ran one of those and then they had a five of them and they were like they were all star certified smog shops and then they knew they were

11:47 going to get caught sooner or later for one of them. So when that happens this one moves to that location and they switch them like that. They just rotate all five shops ownerships because then it's like a okay, we're closing it now it's a new owner. So they'll just they'll just keep rotating the ones I get in trouble. Cuz they're going to get in trouble eventually for you know, people just pay to have their car pass but nowadays you have to pay like sometimes like 600 to 800 bucks now to illegally pass your car depending on because now you have to pull more fraud because there's so much of an electronic footprint for cars now. So let's say like my like someone's got like a 2023 BMW or something or you put all these mods on it and ████ You have to pretty much you got to fraudulently claim that that's a different car entirely sometimes. It's not just like writing a check mark anymore and signing your name. >> Dude, I I have a Honda Civic Hybrid. I

12:39 get smogged every year they make me smog it. >> The fact you have to even hybrid it's a hybrid and you have to smog it's ridiculous. >> Just cuz it's a scam. >> that's Vegas, right? >> a Vegas scam. Yeah, it's a Vegas mafia scam. >> That's what they'd say. That everyone says that the mafia moved on from like the hospitality and now they have like different scams. Government scams? >> It's definitely that. Yeah. >> Makes sense. Of course because that's that's how the mafia works, right? They take infrastructure and they they usurp it and then now it's theirs. >> Yeah, and it's absurd. The thing takes like 5 seconds. They just get in my car, they turn it on and then they're like yeah, you're good. >> Yeah. >> It's the best. >> And they're like yeah, we just auto send it to the DMV and you're like all right. >> Yep. >> [laughter] >> Yeah. >> It's 80 bucks. It's like all right, see you later. >> Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yep. That's a pretty that's a very good scam though. >> Great scam cuz it's a legal scam. >> Exactly. Yeah, it's a legal scam. >> And a lot of scams are linked up with legality. Like you have to buy this

13:30 ████ It's like a monopoly through the government, whatever. >> Burea- bureac- burea- bureaucracy, nailed it. >> Cuz a lot of these scams, too, they're working with the politician. >> The one white guy has the worst problem with English. >> Bureaca- bureaca- bureacacy. >> So, what do you think? Guilty or innocent Koreans? >> I mean, come on. Guilty as ████ >> Guilty as ████ >> They're coming for us. >> ████ >> Let's hope the Filipinos can do their Medicare scam long enough. >> But everybody deserves their day in court.
