IceShark,

Russian mobsters doing the favorite fuel tax scam.

It appears you may be correct...

A search for "Boris Vax" (or "Michael Vax") in the Ft. Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel returned this item, which I didn't purchase...

TWO MEN

Published on 01/11/94, Article 1 of 1 found. (455 words)

Two men accused of being members of a Russian emigre organized crime group have been arrested in Fort Lauderdale and charged with helping to evade $1.3 million in federal diesel fuel and gasoline taxes in Georgia and Florida.

Yakov Litvak, 35, of Fort Lauderdale, and Paul Sharp, 34, of Pompano Beach, were charged in a seven-count indictment in Atlanta.


Searches in other Florida newspapers for Boris and/or Michael only resulted in the late 1998 news stories where Ivana Trump had dumped on the Tel-Com Wireless Cable TV Corp, and I think that has been reported elsewhere on this thread.
