Two 'Real Average women of NJ' celebrities billed with fraud

Two celebrities of the "Real Average women of New Jersey" were indicted Thursday on federal scams charges, charged of fueling their earnings while implementing for loans before their TV display came out during 2009, then concealing their improving performance in a individual bankruptcy processing after their first season broadcasted.

Teresa Giudice, 41, and her spouse Giuseppe "Joe" Giudice, 43, of Montville Township, were charged in a 39-count indictment with fringe movement to make mail and cable scams, bank scams, creating incorrect statements on programs and individual bankruptcy scams.

The several posted fake home loan and other programs from 2001 through 2008, a season before their display came out on Well done, creating fake claims about their employment position and incomes, the indictment said.

Prosecutors claim the Giudices obtained about $4.6 thousand in loans, distributions from house equity lines of credit and construction loans. In some instances the several registered bogus W-2s and tax profits.

Joe Giudice also did not file tax profits for the years 2004 through 2008, when he is claimed to have earned nearly $1 thousand, the govt said. During that time his earnings supposedly changed wildly; the indictment states he created $323,481 in 2005 and $26,194 in 2006.

The truth TV celebrities were planned to make their initial judge performances Wednesday.

Teresa's lawyer, Gretchen Klingeman, said she would ask not accountable. Joe's lawyer did not return a message seeking opinion.

Teresa also released her own declaration, saying it was a difficult day for her family members, that she facilitates her spouse, and that she wishes to take care of the case with the govt as quickly as possible.

"I am dedicated to my loved ones members and intend to maintain our lives in the best way possible, which includes continuing my career," she said.

A Well done spokesperson had no opinion.

Teresa is best known for tossing a table during an discussion during the show's first season, and her marked relationship with her brother's wife.

The indictment claims "the Giudices humiliated to the individual bankruptcy judge, to the IRS and to a number of banks," U.S. Attorney John Fishman said.

"Everyone has an responsibility to tell the truth when dealing with the legal courts, paying their taxation and implementing for loans or loans. That's truth," he said.

When Teresa registered for a house loan of $121,000 in 2001, she incorrectly mentioned she worked as an professional assistant, posting bogus W-2 forms and bogus paystubs as part of the trick, the indictment said. In 2004, she mentioned she was the owner of a stucco company and created $14,750 a month.

In their case for individual bankruptcy protection, started during 2009, the several disguised businesses they owned, rental earnings they obtained, and Teresa's true earnings from the "Real Average women," web page revenue and individual performances, the indictment said.

Teresa did not report TG Fabulicious, a business she created after the individual bankruptcy processing to sell products and take advantage of her popularity. Prosecutors said the several also hid their anticipated increase in earnings from the then-upcoming second season of the display, which is now in its fifth season.

Teresa created $110,677 from the truth display, web page revenue and individual performances, according to the indictment.

In their 2009 individual bankruptcy processing, the several mentioned their per month take-home pay was $16,583, but $10,000 was from "monthly assistance from family members members" and Well done earnings.

It also said they due $2.2 thousand in loans, $13,000 to Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom and nearly $12,000 to a infertility medical center. However, the several mentioned that their clothing collection was worth $3,000. Teresa was belittled for, and protected, spending $60,000 on furniture after the processing.
