Members of an Israeli company selling Dead Sea beauty products in shopping malls across the US have been indicted for illegally employing 140 Israeli nationals and failing to declare their salaries to the US government. The ten Israelis were arrested earlier this week and charges were filed against them at a Virginia court.

Chief among the accused is American-Israeli Omer Gur-Geiger, 36, whose company Rasko operated kiosks in several states. He is charged with illegally employing Israelis who arrived in the US on B-2 tourist visas, which do not allow for holders to work in the country. Gur-Geiger, a resident of Raleigh, North Carolina, is further accused of helping several Israelis file false applications to extend their tourist visas.

Young Israelis hawking skin care products, ostensibly made from minerals from the Dead Sea, have become a common sight in malls around the world. They grab customers passing by their kiosks and often coerce them into buying overpriced cosmetics, many in an attempt to make money as quickly as possible to fund post-army travels.
