A business owner was arrested last week on charges he hired foreign workers at his IT companies, and scammed them out of the full-time salaries their H-1B visas required, NJ.com reported. Sowrabh Sharma, 31, of New York and the two IT companies he partly owns — SCM Data Inc., of New Jersey, and MMC Systems Inc., of Virginia — were charged with conspiracy to commit visa fraud and to obstruct justice, and conspiracy to harbor aliens, according to an announcement from US Attorney Paul Fishman. The companies’ head of finance, Shikha Mohta, 33, of Jersey City, also faces the same charges.
