A federal visa program allowing international students to work at firms in the US after graduation appears to have been exploited by fake companies providing false employment verifications, according to an NBCNews investigation.
In fact, Findream's founder, a woman named Weiyun"Kelly" Huang,According to court documents, Findream's alleged purpose was"false verifications of employment" for Chinese F-1 visa holders seeking work employment"via the OPT program."
Huang admitted she and/or her co-conspirators submitted government forms falsely stating students were employed by the two entities. Charles Bankert, the KU official, said everything seemed legitimate — and that it was"impossible" for schools to police this. NBC News correspondent Gabe Gutierrez visiting one of several addresses linked to Findream, LLC in the Atlanta, Georgia area.According to government officials, the majority of OPT participants were only employed at Findream for a very short time, listing Findream as an employer for up to 14 days. It's likely, these officials say, that these students never worked for Findream, but may have initially listed it as their employer while they tried to obtain legitimate OPT employment.
Undercover video released by ICE in December shows several students agreeing to pay the University of Farmington to enroll after being told directly that"it’s not legal."
