It was recently revealed that Fat Joe is suing his accounting firm, saying they were running a Ponzi scheme that took funds from him, along with stealing from a few Major League Baseball players.
Documents filed by the rapper from his legal team called out BDO and Andre N. Chammas, a CPA, along with his assistant Vanessa Rodriguez. Joe says the pair defrauded him, pointing out accounting irregularities after Rodriguez was fired in July 2022. After taking a further look, the rapper noted that things weren’t adding up.
Joe pointed out an instance where his wife Lorena’s name was used to open American Express credit card accounts. The accounts allegedly made massive purchases that weren’t authorized by Fat Joe, including tuition payments for Rodriguez’s daughter, along with $40,000 in charges for Uber rides and food deliveries.
Another instance found Joe calling out the discovery of his Sneaker Addict Touring company allegedly missing large money deposits. The rapper said it was up to the amount of over $300,000. As a result of the deception, Fat Joe is suing for a large number of damages. Stay tuned for more updates.
