Background check and public records


Yesterday, I spied Phandeluys declining an offer of a coffee date with a well-spoken and well-dressed African American male. Turned out he is a junior majoring in Chemistry at a nearby college whose mother is about my friend’s age … boy, was the young man flustered. If not for her nurturing style of supporting people in a way that helps them to feel secure, this situation might have revolved into something more than slightly awkward. Instead, she was able to transition them into making conversations that were agreeable, sociable and friendly, punctuated with humor. 

Anyway, I have been tunneling through Phandeluys’ journal and reading about her experience of exiting from a deceptive relationship with this psychopath Ya-Chang Robert Lin and the practical and emotional learning she gained from the involvement. 

My friend did an enormous amount of research into and amassed a lot of practical information on how to spot a liar in a deceptive relationship. She had gathered those information into an article that provide structured activities and exercises anyone can carry out that might keep them thinking rationally during the front end of a relationship. That article was published quite some time ago and is available on the Web [but if your search skills are rusty and you want a copy of that article for your library, drop me a line].

And based on that article, I ran an in-depth background check on psychopath Ya-Chang Robert Lin to supplement my friend's profile of same via the use and availability of public records. [More on that in a later post.]  

However, I was more impressed with her journaling of the emotional learning, and wished she had penned and published that as an article, too. I will not repost the entire content here but the gist is that  

When it comes to emotional learning, one of the best places to start is with a solid understanding of what my rights are as an individual. When I regard my rights as paramount, I gain a much clearer definition of who I am and what I should expect from others. 

First, I have a right to make mistakes. I also have the right to correct mistakes and move forward, putting my mistakes behind me. By the same token, I have the right to set my own goals and modify them as I move forward. I certainly have the right to reject others’ suggestions when they tell me to put aside my personal goals and aspirations altogether. 

It’s also my right to trust my intuitions and my system of values. Along those lines, I have the right to say No to situations and people who don’t seem right or circumstances that make me feel uncomfortable in any way. … 

I also have every right to expect and accept nothing less than a healthy partner. A healthy partner is one who encourages me toward my goals and doesn’t stand in my way of reaching them. … 

Finally, a healthy partner is honest. He is a man of character who believes in telling the truth. When it comes to letting me know who and what he is, he doesn’t misrepresent, fabricate, keep secret, or deny that facts of his life. A healthy partner isn’t beset with that insane level of arrogance or arrogant form of insanity that earns him the label of romantic psychopath/liar/deceiver. No, a healthy partner is secure enough in his identity and self-image that he has no need for romantic deception. 

Stay tune, and until next post, 

We dream | We believe | And we will succeed 

About this blog 

Excepting this introduction and what are—and will be—posted after March 2015, this blog mirrored a now out-of-commission blog, http://ya-chang-lin.blogspot.com, which was taken down on October 21, 2013 by its author Phandeluys Truong. 

The author's original contents and supporting documents were captured by multiple means from the above-mentioned blog while it was alive and active. There may have been a glitch here and there that prevented me from downloading the complete blog as it had existed. Thus, readers familiar with the original blog may find a few missing posts and/or comments. Those postings that I was able to grab and preserve in their entirety are reposted here under my name, however, all rights remain that of the original author. 

This series of posts documents the fraudulent, sometimes criminal, and frequent unethical/immoral activities of Ya-Chang Robert Lin, a Taiwanese native of mainland Chinese parentage, who defrauded a naturalized US citizen, Phandeluys Truong, into a marriage that had been his shield against USCIS for his intentional violations of immigration law: 

as a nonimmigrant F-1 student, he had willfully operated an international students recruiting business without prior work authorization from the then United States Immigration and Naturalization Service; 

as President of said business, he had knowingly helped both mainland Chinese and Taiwanese students to evade military drafts in their countries by facilitating their applications to study in the US and abroad; 

as President of said business, he had knowingly helped both mainland Chinese and Taiwanese students looking to enter the United States with the intention of gaining permanent US resident status under the pretense of studying; 

as President of said business, he had purposely evaded paying taxes on the commissions received from it and failed to report the earned income to the IRS by having the payments wired back to Taiwan to his mother Chang Hsueh; 

he had applied for reinstatement of his F-1 or student status and a change of status, while knowingly withheld the preceding facts on his own applications for permanent resident and citizenship in the United States. 

And those are just the tip of the iceberg. Ya-Chang Robert Lin had been employed at AAFES or The Exchange headquarter in Dallas, Texas as an information technology auditor, where he managed to steal—by downloading to CDs that he kept in his personal possession while abiding for time and opportunities to "do business" in Taiwan and/or China—thousands of his colleagues’ Social Security numbers and personnel files while working on one of its HR projects. The HR data on one of these projects became the basis for an academic paper, speaking proposal for ISACA, and a consulting business he was "collaborating with " [more like conning other people into developing and fronting for him]. 

Ya-Chang Robert Lin is a reprobate with a seared conscience. Lacking normal capacity for empathy, remorse, and reciprocation of good will, he is addicted to lying, cheating, and stealing for the pure pleasures derived from being able to get away with it. Because he is such a good liar—so charming and well versed in manipulation techniques and acting skills—it is hard to distinguish him from reprobates. 

Ya-Chang Robert Lin was able to dupe some of the smart people in federal government, higher education, and information technology auditing and security. Among his legacy: A son who refused any connection with him and wished that he were dead.
