Arthur Grigorian admitted in federal court today (September 11) that he took in $1.5 million from phony tax returns, filing them in the names of hundreds of victims.
Commonly, Grigorian and his conspirators claimed that the victims — many of them elderly — had not filed returns in years and had made tens of thousands in gambling before losing most of the loot. Grigorian and his buddies would direct the Internal Revenue Service to addresses and bank accounts under their control.
Grigorian's plea is the latest of 27 under "Operation Trillion Troubles," conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Internal Revenue Service.
