Justice Department secures denaturalization of convicted gun trafficker and health care fraudster

The Justice Department announced Thursday that it has secured the denaturalization of two criminals “who obtained U.S. citizenship through fraud” and sued to revoke the citizenship of a third who carried out marriage fraud. 

Attorney General Pam Bondi said the actions “reflect this Department of Justice’s ongoing efforts to strip citizenship from people who conceal crimes or defraud the American people during the immigration process.”   

“American citizenship is a sacred privilege — not a cheap status that can be obtained dishonestly,” she added. 

The three individuals were identified as Ukraine native Vladimir Volgaev, Cuba native Mirelys Cabrera Diaz and Lebanon native Alec Nasreddine Kassir.

Insurance fraud involves making false or exaggerated claims to an insurance provider.

• Hard Fraud: Someone deliberately causes a loss (e.g., setting fire to a warehouse or staging a car accident) specifically to collect a payout.
• Soft Fraud: More common and often viewed as “victimless” by the perpetrator. It involves exaggerating a legitimate claim, such as overstating the value of stolen items in a home burglary to cover the deductible.
