Then the next app old boy wanted help with was 'arranged marriage' in countries that practice that where it was more of a bride auction marketplace. So now straight human trafficking? Again pass.
He finally settled on a project where he and his son arrange for people overseas to come study in the USA. What? How do you go from human trafficking to something harmless like that? They have to live/stay on his properties so he was directing money straight to himself, and after they got to the USA his 'associates' coerced them into signing contracts to work for his companies for X years. So basically human trafficking again, and sanctioned and sponsored by these peoples home country (whom he had connections within and who was paying for these people to study overseas). Now that I'm thinking about this I should probably look into if there is a way to report this.
Smart dude with lots of money but he just couldn't not be shady AF. He thought all of these were perfectly legit things and was surprised when I didn't.
