Man Accused of Using the Turmoil in Venezuela to Run Massive Fraud



Federal prosecutors Monday said they nabbed a man who used his bank accounts here in South Florida to prey on the circumstances in Venezuela to and aid drug cartels--not businessmen.

The prosecutors said it was at a Bank of America in Doral where Martin Lustgarden Acherman had his South Florida accounts, and they were part of a massive money laundering scheme to the tune of $100 million.

The government says a big chunk of that was to launder money for Colombian Drug dealers and Colombian paramilitary organizations.

The violence in Caracas and other cities and a collapsed economy have left store shelves barren. The American dollar is like gold on the black market, the lifeline for businesses so they can conduct trade outside Venezuela.
