Chabad Rabbi Jacob Biderman (Vienna) |
The below news links from 2018/2019 describe an alleged fraud scheme that was initiated in January 2015 regarding a Real Estate portfolio in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, USA. Part of the fraud allegedly involved Chabad Rabbi Jacob Biderman making 3 wire transfers, one of which to a bank account in Chile. Jacob Biderman was operating (at least initially) through his company "Friends of LBS [Lauder Business school]". According to the articles, the scheme was orchestrated by Sarah Ginsburg who is Rabbi Biderman's sister and who has a Chabad House in Mrytle Beach.
Introduction and Background
Here are the details of Rabbi Jacob Biderman's Chabad House https://www.lubavitch.com/centers/117785
https://www.lubavitch.com/centers/1968276Rabbi Avraham Biderman is Jacob Biderman's son and both Rabbi Mordechay Segal and Rabbi Yechiel Michel Butman are married to Rabbi Jacob Biderman's daughters and are registered as Chabad Shluchim in Vienna. This is all clearly described here.

Rabbi Jacob Biderman's sister, Sara Ginsburg, runs a Chabad House in Myrtle Beach, USA: https://www.lubavitch.com/centers/117725
Another organisation called "Friends of LBS" has been set up in Myrtle Beach with the following personnel: https://www.causeiq.com/organizations/friends-of-lbs,264100821/
This clearly shows that this is a family run organisation consisting of Sara Ginsburg (Rabbi Biderman's sister) and Rabbi Biderman's son-in-law Yechiel Butman.
Furthermore, in this article requesting donations for Jacob Biderman's Lauder Chabad Business School in Vienna (LBS), he clearly asks for money to be deposited in the "Friends of LBS" bank account in Myrtle Beach.
The relationship between Rabbi Jacob Biderman and Sara Ginsburg is mentioned in this quote from an article on the Chabad colive news site...She is also survived by her siblings Mrs. Sara Ginsburg of Myrtle Beach, SC; Rabbi Yaakov [Jacob] Biderman of Vienna, Austria, and Mrs. Leah Aizenman of Myrtle Beach, SC, and her mother, Mrs. Esther Parshan of Queens, NY.
Rabbi Jacob Biderman is regarded as a professor according to this web page
In 2001, founded the "Jewish Teachers Seminary" in Vienna in cooperation with the Austrian and the Israeli ministries of education. the opening ceremony of this institution was attended by more than one hundred Rabbis from all over Europe, Austrian and Israeli government officials, as well as Mr. Romano Prodi, then the President of the European Commission. Thereafter Biderman received the title of Professor and was appointed as Dean of the institution.
This is a title which he enjoys on his school's web site
Summary of the alleged fraud and its implications
The below news links from 2018/2019 describe an alleged fraud scheme that was initiated in January 2015 regarding a Real Estate portfolio in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, USA. Part of the fraud allegedly involved Chabad Rabbi Jacob Biderman making 3 wire transfers, one of which to a bank account in Chile. Jacob Biderman was operating (at least initially) through his company "Friends of LBS". According to the articles, the scheme was orchestrated by Sarah Ginsburg, Rabbi Biderman's sister.
If it is true that Jacob Biderman knowingly participated in the fraud described in these news articles, then the following questions must be asked:
1) How can an active participant of fraud be registered as a Chabad Shliach?
2) How can the Chairman of the Lauder Business School in Vienna, a school set up to teach Torah ethics in business, be someone who has conducted his business in an allegedly fraudulent manner?
3) Will he still be advertised as one of the founder members of the RCE (Rabbinical Council of European Rabbis)?
3) How can this person still refer to himself as a Rabbi and why aren't other Rabbis demanding he give up this title?
In 2015, two of the parties mentioned in this alleged fraud entered into a fight where one of them was shot, but the attempted murder charges were later dropped. How do other Chabad Rabbis feel about one of their colleagues being mixed up with such violent activities when they are trying to promote Judaism? Is any Chabad Rabbi prepared to speak out?
Articles and Links detailing the alleged Fraud
Judge Benjamin H Culbertson ruled yesterday that Jack Isaiah Rabon’s mediation settlement with Kyle and Karon Mitchell be immediately thrown out on grounds that Rabon worked with a local lawyer to defraud the Mitchells.
The Sun News reported last Fall 2017: Court documents filed in early September allege that Jack Isaiah Rabon, Jr., along with his wife, Nicole Rabon, conspired with their attorney and with the buyers of the land to conceal hundreds of thousands of dollars in the transaction from Karon Mitchell, Jack Rabon’s sister, and Kyle Mitchell, her husband. The suit claims that at least some of that money was funnelled through a foreign bank account and then given in cash to the Rabons and their attorney, Lane Jeffries, who worked for the McNair Law Firm at that time.
Myrtle Beach Area Attorney Lane Jefferies |
The dismissal of the mediation agreement opens up opportunities for the Mitchells to sue Rabon, his attorney Lane Jeffries, the buyer of the Mitchell’s property Sarah Ginsburg and Jacob Biderman, and potentially even the city of Myrtle Beach.
As the Myrtle Beach Sun News reported last October 6th:
According to court filings, Jeffries, Jack and Nicole Rabon, Ginsburg and Biderman all told the plaintiffs that the purchase price for the combined parcels was $542,000. That’s the total amount that was listed on closing documents and the total that is available in Horry County land records.
However, the suit claims that the buyers really paid $777,000, and that the Rabons and Jeffries kept the additional $235,000 out of official records in an attempt to conceal it from Kyle and Karon Mitchell.
As a part of that arrangement, the suit says Biderman transferred $100,000 to a bank account in Chile under the name of Gabriel Yosef. That money was allegedly given to Jack and Nicole Rabon and Jeffries by Yosef after the transfer.

Myrtle Beach Lawyer Firm Named in Fraudulent Sale
“McNair Law Firm intentionally withheld material information about the September [2015] Sales from the two mortgage holders to conceal numerous assets in violation of federal and state law”
Lane Jefferies [McNair’s Lawyer] knew about and, more importantly, was concerned about Gabby’s wire. This proves he knew about the illicit funds and was an active participant in the conspiracy to defraud the banks, the Mitchells and Rabon & Rabon, Inc .
Myrtle Beach residents Karon and Kyle Mitchell filed a motion this past week in the Fifteenth Judicial Court to void the fraudulent sale of $777,000 worth of downtown Myrtle Beach real estate they previously owned.
The lawsuit claiming fraud reads: There is no issue of material fact in dispute as to whether the sale of September 3, 2015 was procured by fraud by all of the parties involved and is void and/or voidable under South Carolina law.
Sarah Ginsburg orchestrated a scheme in which $777,000.00 was paid for the two properties owned by Rabon & Rabon, Inc., with $235,000.00 of that money being paid “under the table” to Jack Rabon and others. There are actually two instances of fraud in the transaction.
The most obvious fraud lies in the specific representations of Mr. Jeffries [Lane Jeffries – McNair Law Firm Lawyer at that time] and Mr. Rabon to Plaintiffs and numerous courts that only $542,000.00 was being paid for the two properties. These allegations pertinent to the fraud directly against Plaintiffs [hereinafter the “Direct Fraud”] are verified by Michelle Cohen, (the real estate agent involved in the sale) Jack Rabon (the President and Vice President of the Corporation and primary benefactor of the illicit funds), and the Biderman Defendants (the purchasers of the properties).
The second instance of fraud was only recently uncovered in discovery and deals with fraud perpetrated by the lawyers, at the direction of the client, against the creditors of the Corporation. McNair Law Firm intentionally withheld material information about the September Sales from the two mortgage holders to conceal numerous assets in violation of federal and state law [hereinafter the “Asset Concealment Fraud”].
Jacob Biderman is a citizen of Austria who operates a Jewish educational institution in Myrtle Beach through Friends of LBS, LLC. The original written contract with Friends of LBS, LLC was for the sale of Sea Palms #3 and the Brick House for the total price of $542,000.00.
However, the actual deal was for Biderman to pay $777,000.00 for both properties, with the additional $235,000.00 to be paid to Jack Rabon and others (exclusively) via a wire transfer and cash. This payment arrangement cut owners Kyle and Karon Mitchell out of their portion of $235,000 of the proceeds of the entire sale. The lawsuit claims that not only was McNair Law firm aware of the fraud, but a lawyer and perhaps lawyers of the firm actually participated in that fraud.
The downtown Myrtle Beach properties named in the fraudulent schemes include:
All that certain piece, parcel or lot of land situate, lying and being in the City of Myrtle Beach, Dogwood Neck Township, Horry County, South Carolina, shown and designated as Lot Three (3) of Block Nineteen (19) according to a map or plat of Hotel Section of Myrtle Beach, as made in June and July if 1926, under the supervision of Stanley H.

TMS # 181-11-03-004 / PIN # 444-01-04-0043[collectively hereinafter “Sea Palms #3”]
In January 2015, Jack Rabon executed a contract with Shai David for the sale of several Rabon & Rabon, Inc. properties for $1 million. Rabon and David had a separate, unwritten agreement that David would pay Rabon an additional $735,000.00 “off the record” for the properties. Lane Jefferies [McNair Law Firm Lawyer] was present at most of the meetings while these negotiations took place and actually discussed the illicit payments in a text message exchange with Rabon on January 10, 2015.
Officially, Sea Palms #1 was sold to David for $242,000.00 in February 2015 and Sea Palms #2 was sold for $175,000.00 in March 2015. These sales took place without approval from the Probate Court or notice to the minority shareholders. The Sea Palms #2 sale resulted in cash of $128,289.57 belonging to the Corporation that was deposited directly into the McNair Law Firm Trust account. Once Plaintiffs discovered the sales, they filed suit against Rabon.
In their Answer, the McNair Firm misrepresented to the court and creditors that the money obtained from the sale of Sea Palms #2 was used “to preserve assets of the Corporation.” In fact, McNair actually held more than $120,000.00 in Rabon & Rabon, Inc. funds in its trust account at the time it made this representation. Ultimately, only $48,460.30 the $128,289.57 was spent towards expenses for the Corporation.
Michelle Cohen was the realtor involved in the deal and the primary representative of the Biderman Defendants. Ms. Cohen confirmed the conspiracy to pay the additional illicit funds via affidavit.
Jacob Biderman, Atid Properties, LLC, Friends of LBS, LLC and Sarah Ginsberg admitted in their joint answer that the additional $235,000.00 was paid for the two properties outside of the closing.
Therefore, the payment of the illicit and undisclosed $235,000.00 in funds is admitted by all of the parties directly involved. There is a dispute as to who received $50,000.00 of the illicit funds, but all parties agree that $185,000.00 went to Jack Rabon through Daisy Ridge, LLC and cash.
On August 20, 2015, Lane Jefferies made a motion in the Horry County Probate Court to sell two properties owned by Rabon & Rabon, Inc. In the motion and in direct representations to Plaintiffs, Lane Jefferies represented that Friends of LBS, LLC agreed to pay $145,000.00 to Rabon & Rabon, Inc. for the Brick House and $397,000.00 for Sea Palms #3, for a total of $542,000.00. These representations were false. Jack Rabon and Lane Jeffries knew the aforementioned representations were false at the time they were made to the Mitchells and the Probate Court.
Both the corporate resolution drafted by Jefferies and the Consent Motion signed by the Probate Court represented that only $542,000.00 was being paid for the property as opposed to the actual agreed upon price of $777,000.00. Due to the impending loss of the property to BB&T, and the false understanding that no better offer existed, the Mitchells signed the Resolution and the Consent Order on August 25, 2015.
Upon the executed Resolution and Consent Order, the final stages of the conspiracy were set into motion. Biderman formed a new LLC, Atid Properties, LLC, for the sole purpose of taking title to Sea Palms #3 and the Brick House. Jack and Nicole Rabon formed a new company, Daisy
Ridge, LLC, for the sole purpose of receiving the illicit funds via wire from Biderman. The formation of Daisy Ridge, LLC was suggested by Lane Jefferies who referred the Rabons to Robert Frenz, an attorney in Columbia, for its formation. Jefferies actually provided the fraudulent address for Rabon to use as the office for Daisy Ridge, LLC via text message.
After the LLCs were formed, the last piece of the conspiracy involved the money. The money from Biderman would be transferred through three wire transfers.
The First Wire consisted of the legitimate funds under the contracts and transferred to the Emery Law Firm Trust Account from a newly created Bank of America bank account in the name of Atid Properties, LLC. This total of $527,627.77 arrived no later than September 2, 2015.
The Second Wire in the amount of $100,000.00 was wired from Biderman’s account in Austria to a bank account in Chile in the name of Gabby Yosef, Michelle Cohen’s brother.
These funds were withdrawn in cash to be handed to Jack Rabon.
The Third Wire was in the amount of $135,000.00 and was transferred to a PNC Bank Account in the name of Daisy Ridge, LLC. Due to the anti-money laundering regulations in the U.S., the Third Wire had to go through a clearinghouse in New York and it did not arrive by September 3, 2015.
This caused a ripple in the plan, resulting in Jack Rabon demanding that additional security be paid for the illicit funds in the amount of $135,000.00. Biderman wrote three checks for $45,000.00 each that were given to Lane Jefferies as security for the illicit funds.
Lane Jefferies signed a receipt for these three checks on September 3, 2015. Jefferies asserted that these checks were for “security for the brick house,” but this is false. All funds necessary for the closing of both properties arrived in the trust account of the Emery Law Firm no later than September 2, 2018, the day before the three checks were handed to Lane Jefferies.
On September 2, 2015, Lane Jefferies engaged in a series of texts with Jack and Nicole Rabon. These texts are the proverbial “smoking gun” with regard to proving Lane Jefferies’ knowing and intentional involvement in the conspiracy.

These texts demonstrate his knowledge of both wires involving the illicit monies from Biderman. The single text that conclusively proves Lane Jefferies’ direct involvement reads as follows: “Damn. Jack, can you get Michelle on the phone and see if gabby got his wire?”
The only “gabby” involved was Gabby Yosef, the brother of Michelle Cohen. The only way Gabby Yosef was involved with any party in general, or with the real estate transaction on September 3, 2015 in particular, was through the wire of $100,000.00 to his bank account in Chile.
Lane Jefferies knew about and, more importantly, was concerned about Gabby’s wire. This proves he knew about the illicit funds and was an active participant in the conspiracy to defraud the banks, the Mitchells and Rabon & Rabon, Inc.
*EDITOR’S NOTE – The statements in this legal complaint concerning Shai David were taken as a sworn affidavit by Jack Rabon. Mr. David disputes those statements as factually untrue and not accurate.

Perjury charges filed against Supreme Court Justice’s Son-In-Law
Myrtle Beach area attorney Lane Jeffries has been sued for perjury.
The Charlotte Observer first reported on this issue last March
Allegations of secret payments and a cash-packed envelope being handed off in a parking lot were some of the “illicit” activity that occurred during the 2015 sale of an oceanfront motel.
Those two details highlight the latest filing in the ongoing lawsuit over the sale of hotels and a home near 7th Avenue in Myrtle Beach…
Today, perjury charges were filed in the case by plaintiffs Karon Mitchell, Kyle Mitchell, and Rabon & Rabon, Inc., against defendants: Attorney Lane Jeffries, McNair Law Firm, P.A., Atid Properties, Daisy Ridge, LLC, Friends of LBS, LLC, Sarah Ginsburg, Jacob Biderman, Gabriel Yosef, and Michelle Cohen.
The complaint states: There is no issue of material fact in dispute as to whether the sale of September 3, 2015 was procured by fraud and that Lane Jefferies, a member of the South Carolina Bar, was an active participant.
Lane Jefferies knowingly provided false testimony in a sworn deposition. Any additional explanation or affidavits that contradict his sworn deposition testimony must be considered a “sham affidavit” and cannot be considered by this Court in reaching its decision. Without Jefferies’ false alibis about the September Sales, he cannot mount a defense against Plaintiff’s claims, especially considering the admissions he provided in that same deposition.
Jeffries is currently the Supervising Litigation Attorney at Anastopoulo Law Firm. During the period when the event occurred Jeffries worked under the supervision of Henrietta Golding at the [then] McNair Law Firm in the Myrtle Beach office.

However, it appears tensions were mounting even back in 2015 before these court cases came to light. Here is an article from November 2017 describing the altercation between two of the men involved in the alleged fraud.
Victim charged weeks after shooting incident in Myrtle Beach
Jack Rabon |
Shai David |
MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) – Weeks after an altercation and shooting between two local business men in Myrtle Beach, the alleged shooting victim from the November 17 incident on Main Street has been charged with third-degree assault and battery for punching the man charged with shooting him.
According to Myrtle Beach Police reports, 46-year-old Jack Rabon was charged December 11. The arrest warrants state that Rabon approached the alleged shooter, 42-year-old Shai David, while he was in the doorway of his vehicle, and punched him with his fists. David suffered "minor bodily injury" as a result, and Rabon is now charged with third-degree assault and battery.
David, the alleged shooter in the case, was arrested and charged in November for attempted murder after allegedly shooting at Rabon in a parking lot on Main Street. Rabon was transported to the hospital after the shooting. Rabon's wife said Rabon was shot once in the shoulder and chest, and had a punctured lung. She also said Rabon had been previously threatened by David.
Court records indicated Rabon had recently filed a lawsuit against David.
At about 4:45 p.m. November 17, David got into a physical altercation with the shooting victim, 46-year-old Jack Isiah Rabon, in the 800 block of Main Street, and when the altercation ended, Rabon tried to leave in his vehicle, according to David's arrest warrant. David then got a handgun and started shooting at Rabon as he tried to drive off. Rabon wrecked his vehicle, exited out of the passenger side, and hid behind another vehicle.
David then walked over and searched for Rabon, the warrant states. Once he saw Rabon, David moved to get a clear firing line at him and fired another shot at him.
David has been charged with attempted murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime, based on the fact that David was not in imminent peril when he shot Rabon, the warrant states.
David's bond was set at $100,000 at a hearing, and he must surrender his passport as an additional condition of his release, due to his ties to Israel. He is also ordered not to have contact with the victim or his family. David's attorney claimed he was wearing a body camera during the shooting incident Tuesday afternoon.
David is the former owner of the Oasis Motel, located at 704 York Street in Myrtle Beach. WMBF News interviewed David in June 2014 after several Irish exchange students staying at the motel were arrested after several parties drew complaints for noise and public drunkenness.
On November 12, a lawsuit concerning real estate was filed by Rabon against David, according to online records from the Horry County Courts.
The owner of Lovely Law Firm, Justin Lovely, said he's considering moving his business elsewhere due to the ongoing violence in the Five Points area.
"Nobody wants crime in your neighborhood, let alone where you conduct business," he said.
Lovely heard the gunshots Tuesday afternoon.
"Immediately, I got up. At first, I thought it was a car backfiring. Ran outside with my associate, a couple of my staff, heard four more shots fired and then I got everybody back in here," Lovely said. "We saw a guy with a green shirt running over here saying, 'Call the police, call the police.' We knew it was gunfire at that point."
Lovely said this is the first time he's heard a shooting during business hours. He said the shootings in Five Points usually happen overnight.
It would seem that Jack Rabon has other arrests to his name according to this article https://wpde.com/news/local/myrtle-beach-man-arrested-for-trying-to-hit-teens-with-shoe-during-road-rage-incident
Then in February 2017, this is reported https://abcnews4.com/will-a-myrtle-beach-businessman-stand-trial-for-attempted-murder
Judge says local businessman will stand trial for attempted murder
Conway, S.C. (WPDE) — Myrtle Beach businessman Shai David will stand trial for attempted murder after a 2015 shooting, Judge Steven H. John ruled Friday afternoon.
John's ruling came after about a day and a half of statements and testimony during a "stand your ground" hearing, which is when a judge determines if a person had a reasonable right to defend themselves where they felt threatened, even with deadly force.
John said the request for immunity under the "stand your ground" law was denied and that Shai David will go to trail on attempted murder charges.
A date for that trial has not yet been set.
David's arrest came in November of 2015 after a shooting in the Superblock area of downtown Myrtle Beach. Police say David and another local businessmen, Jack Isaiah Rabon, had a fight, and after that fight, shots were fired and Rabon was hit while trying to leave the area in his car.
Rabon was also charged with third degree assault and battery for the fight that proceeded the shooting.
During the defense's final address to the judge Friday morning, they said that when David acted he was meeting force with force.
They argued that weapons were present during the fight so Rabon was a serious threat to David and that David had the right to fire shots and to continue to shoot until it appeared that any danger had ceased.
But the state argued that Rabon had retreated to his truck and ended the assault when David took aim and fired shots.
The state said that even if David had the right to shoot at the car at first, he kept shooting and advanced towards Rabon, meaning it was not self defense.
During testimony on Thursday, Rabon said he never threatened David with a gun. He said he only had a pocket knife on him at the time of the shooting, though he did have a gun in his car and assumed David knew that.
But the defense said since David knew Rabon had a gun, he felt threatened and had to act to protect himself.
David's attorney Fran Humphries says the ruling has no impact on the upcoming trial.
"It has no real bearing on the trial of the case, it's something that was created by statue in 2006. We took advantage of it. We weren't successful but we look forward to the trial," he said.
Humphries even said this hearing may help their case a bit.
"This motion allows us to sort of set some parameters for the case. We know now what the alleged victim will say because he didn't provide a statement of law enforcement at the time and so that gives us a little more information about how to better defend the case," he said.
According to the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division website, "stand your ground" comes from the Protection of Persons and Property Act:
The stated intent of the legislation is to codify the common law castle doctrine, which recognizes that a person’s home is his castle, and to extend the doctrine to include an occupied vehicle and the person’s place of business. This bill authorizes the lawful use of deadly force under certain circumstances against an intruder or attacker in a person’s dwelling, residence, or occupied vehicle. The bill provides that there is no duty to retreat if (1) the person is in a place where he has a right to be, including the person’s place of business, (2) the person is not engaged in an unlawful activity, and (3) the use of deadly force is necessary to prevent death, great bodily injury, or the commission of a violent crime. A person who lawfully uses deadly force is immune from criminal prosecution and civil action, unless the person against whom deadly force was used is a law enforcement officer acting in the performance of his official duties and he identifies himself in accordance with applicable law or the person using deadly force knows or reasonably should have known the person is a law enforcement officer.
Martin Spratlin, one of the prosecuting attorney's with the 15th Circuit Solicitor's Office, said the "stand your ground" part of this is an extension from a typical self-defense defense case.
"Typically in a self- defense case you have to establish that you had no other opportunity than to do what you did. You couldn't escape, you couldn't run away, you couldn't hide and get away from the situation, you were left with no other choice. What the castle doctrine does is it removes that," he said.
Part of the hearing included footage from a body camera that David had on at the time of the fight and shooting. A member of his defense team says that footage will be provided to ABC15 News next week.
