Amazon paid a Trump fundraiser to lobby against vendors who sell counterfeit goods
Amazon tapped a lobbying firm run by an ally of President Donald Trump to push for government action against vendors selling counterfeit goods – an issue that has come under greater scrutiny during the U.S. trade battle with China. From July 2018 until March 2019, Amazon has been paying Ballard Partners up to $70,000 each quarter for, in part, lobbying on issues related to “trade and tariff policy,” according to three disclosure reports. However, people familiar with the matter said that the disclosure reports only tell part of the story.
Lear MoreWoman held with 11kg gold, Rs 1.9 crore foreign notes.
HYDERABAD: Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) sleuths caught a 50-year-old woman at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport on Tuesday and seized 11.1 kg gold worth Rs 3.63 crore and Rs 1.9 crore in foreign currency.
What caught the DRI sleuths off guard was the way the Hyderabad woman had managed to hoodwink the customs authorities when she arrived from Dubai in the early hours. The gold was arranged on the smuggler’s self in such a manner that even hand-held metal detectors could not detect it. After recovering the gold and cash, a DRI team conducted a search in a five-star hotel in Gachibowli where the accused has been staying for the last three months. The DRI team is trying to find out why the smuggler has been staying in the hotel though she hails from the city. “The gold and the foreign currency were concealed in seven specially made cloth pouches and socks. The burqa-clad smuggler pinned the pouches and socks to multiple layers of leggings she had worn,” a DRI official said. Acting on specific leads, the DRI team intercepted the woman, who opted for the green channel indicating she was not carrying any items which invite customs duty and successfully passed through customs check. However, the DRI team stopped her before she could exit the terminal and frisked her. During the search, they recovered gold biscuits weighing 11.1 kg and Rs 4.25 lakh worth Singapore dollars and UAE dirhams.

Nepal police busts fake currency racket, 3 Pak nationals arrested.
Bringing to light how Pakistani nationals use Nepal as a transit hub for smuggling counterfeit Indian currency, the Nepal Police recently busted a Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) nexus, arresting three Pakistanis and fake currency kingpin Yunus Miya Ansari from Tribhuvan International Airport here. Along with the Pakistani nationals, two people from Nepal were also arrested. They had FICN amounting to over seven crores sixty-seven lakhs in their possession when they were caught at the airport. “We have arrested Yunus Miya Ansari along with three Pakistanis and 2 Nepalese nationals from the Tribhuwan International Airport with counterfeit Indian Bank Notes. They came to Nepal from Qatar with the fake Indian currencies but their passport shows that their travel starts from Pakistan,” Bishwo Raj Pokharel, the Spokesman for the Nepal Police, told ANI on Friday. Friday’s arrest has become a subject of concern for some former intelligence and security personnel, as a few anomalies have been observed in the mode of trafficking.
Lear MoreMan Pleads Guilty to Trafficking Fake iPhones in Scheme That Cost Apple Nearly £711,000.
A Chinese national and former engineering student in the US state of Oregon pleaded guilty on Wednesday to one count of trafficking in counterfeit goods in a scheme that defrauded Apple out of roughly 1,500 iPhones. According to court records, US Customs and Border Protection opened an investigation in 2017 into a number of shipments of counterfeit iPhones that led them to Quan Jiang. Investigators said Jiang told them during an interview in December of that year that he regularly received packages from China that contained 20 to 30 inoperable iPhones, which he would then trade in for legitimate iPhones through Apple’s warranty programme by claiming they would not power on. Jiang told investigators that after trading in the fake iPhones for legitimate Apple products, either in person or online, he would ship them back to China where they were sold for hundreds of dollars. In exchange, Jiang would receive a cut of the money. Those funds were reportedly delivered to Jiang’s mother, who lives in China and would deposit the money in his account. Though Jiang used various aliases as well as the names of friends and family to carry out the scheme, Apple’s records showed that Jiang appeared to be linked to 3,069 warranty claims either with his name, mailing address, email address, or IP address, according to court documents.

Sub-inspectors suspended for smuggling seized liquor.
Two sub-inspectors were suspended on Thursday for their alleged involvement in liquor smuggling in Greater Noida. They were identified as Komal Kuntal and Vikas (known by his first name only), both deployed at Kasna police station. Vaibhav Krishna, SSP, Gautam Budh Nagar, said the police received information about the presence of illegal liquor in a house in Sector Chi 4 in Kasna. “A team immediately rushed to the spot and arrested one Sanjay Bhati with a consignment of illegal liquor. His accomplice, one Yogi, managed to flee,” he said. During interrogation, Bhati revealed that the liquor had actually been given to him by the two sub-inspectors, Kuntal and Vikas. Krishna said further investigation confirmed his statement. He said that on January 19, 2019, a truck carrying illegal liquor rammed an auto at the ATS roundabout, killing one person. The police seized the truck and found a consignment of illegal liquor inside. They brought the truck to Kasna police station and registered an FIR against its driver, who was at large. Krishna said Kuntal was investigating the matter. “We have suspended the two police officials with immediate effect,” he said.

Chinese man guilty of sending 1,500 fake iPhones to Apple in warranty fraud.
SALEM, Ore. — Over the span of two years, a Chinese national in Oregon sent devices that looked like iPhones to Apple, saying they wouldn’t turn on and should be replaced under warranty. He didn’t just submit a couple of the devices — he delivered in person or shipped to Apple around 3,000 of them. Apple responded by sending almost 1,500 replacement iPhones, each with an approximate resale value of $600. But the devices that Quan Jiang sent Apple were fake. Jiang, 30, a former engineering student at a community college in Albany, Oregon, pleaded guilty in federal court Wednesday to trafficking in counterfeit goods, the U.S. Attorney’s office in Portland announced. The presence of fake iPhones and other high-tech gadgets has become an issue in global resale markets, with some counterfeit versions operating so well it’s hard for users to tell the difference between them and the genuine products. But in the Oregon case, the makers of the thousands of fake phones apparently didn’t even have to bother with having working operating systems.
