Hannah has been assisting Sam in scamming people. She is NO innocent bystander although she would have you believe that she is. They have done the following:

Samuel J Choi and Hannah De Los Santos have been scamming people together for a very long time.

Samuel J Choi also goes by the name of Sam Choi

Sam Choi has stolen well over $3 million combined from countless victims.

He has built up an entirely fictional life in order to gain the trust of others and take advantage of the vulnerable. Hannah has helped him build up a fictional life, and has told people these lies to get them involved in the scam.

Hannah Endorses Sam's Being A Fake Veteran

Sam and Hannah were both aware that Sam was never a veteran, but used that to help manipulate people, and build their network. Whenever conversations were brought up, it was about how honest Sam was as a veteran, and a West Point grad. But a look into to military database shows that Sam never served in the military in any capacity. He will sign up for military discounts, eat free meals meant for veterans, and tell everyone that he has credibility because he's a military vet.

Besides not being a veteran, he faked his alumni status at West Point. While Sam did attend West Point for two years, he never graduated from the institution. His faux alumni status at West Point was usually his selling point for why he was trustworthy and could never “lie”, and both of them would use his status as a vet as to why everything he says is so truthful.

You can look up and see that Samuel Choi has never graduated from West Point. West Point Graduates Search.

Fake Credentials and Degree

Sam Choi tells people that he is a pHD and a Doctor of Physical Therapy.

Sam Choi faked his credentials of being a DPT in order to work closely with colleges and obtain free work for his gym via college interns. He does not hold a Doctorate in PT, but is only a certified Physical Therapist.

WHERE IT ALL STARTED

It’s pretty clear Sam Choi has a gambling addiction. His wife Hannah Choi will deny it, but this is common place for these types of broken marriages. Sam Choi has probably been a gambler for a long time, and either acts out in bursts or was biding his time for the right moment.

IT RUNS IN HIS FAMILY

Scamming seems to run in his family. Confirmed by cousins from his father’s side, Sam’s Mother has scammed the family in some sort of pyramid/ponzi scheme and while she obtained her payout, she never paid the family back. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

WATCH DEALS AND SOCIAL ENGINEERING

Sam seems to have built a lot of relationships around his lavish watch collecting hobby, this put him in a successful light and also in the right crowds where her was surrounded by well off people who had money. Sam Choi is a successful social engineer, clearly capable of building relationships and minimal trust under a fake lifestyle and identity.

PEAK STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING AS A FRONT

Sam Choi’s gym was basically a front and location where he could put himself in a place of authority that gain the confidence of followers. Victims who were formerly gym members have come forward stating that he conned them into giving money for “investments” and “deals” but never received payouts. Sam will claim that he consistently pay people back, but he operates under a “bait” and “switch” procedure that has allowed him to amass a lot of money for his gambling needs.

INVESTMENTS AND BUSINESS DEALS

Around 2018 to 2019, Sam Choi started approaching members of his circle about business investments and opportunites he had. A popular one he had was the BitCoin Payouts.

BITCOIN PAY OUT

Sam Choi promised investors that if they put in a certain amount of money, in a short time they would get their money back in double. The Bitcoin Con was said to be through his connection with his wife: Hannah De Los Santos’ family, the Tans and their immense wealth in bitcoin that they wanted to sell off in the states. Sam’s “bait” and “switch” method was used for this con, where he would soften people who put in small amounts and pay them back and then eventually take large sums from them and since then never paid them back.

FREE GYM MEMBERSHIP!!!

In order to further fuel his scamming, Sam would show his lavish lifestyle and tell the gym members about the Bitcoin payout. He convinced as many of them as possible to pay for a year upfront, and he would give them their money back in 3 months. By doing so, they would gain a free gym membership. These were members who have been part of the gym for years, and had no reason to not believe his lies.

MARIJUANA GROW DEAL

Sam Choi approached other potential investment parties and even his family members about a Marijuana Grow Deal with an consultant who was an experiment in this field. As it turned out, he conned people into thinking they were gaining shares of the Grow Deal and even went as far as conning the consultant and disappearing completely. After meeting the original consultant who worked closely with Sam on the original deal, it has been found that Sam Choi fabricated many of the stories and road blocks that occurred during the initiation of the business deal and that he had in fact disappeared with the money.

LOAN SHARKING

Sam Choi was frequently found in the Casino, so he told people that he's a Loan Shark. He lends people money at the Casino and he's not a gambler. He was telling people that he participates in low risk / high reward loans, and collects watches as collateral. They can get the deal as well, and it would just have to be through him. He was using this front to collect more gambling funds.

SAM'S GUARANTEE

Sam who has built up credibility in the community through the fake gym, and lavish spending on other people's dime has made it appear that he was very wealthy. He has faked bank statements, and told people if anything ever happened to their money, he would guarantee it. He showed fake bank statements as proof that he had the funds should anything go wrong. He is trustworthy, and would spend his entire life paying back if anything ever happened, as he's a West Point graduate, and has served in the military.

RECEIVING THE MONEY

Hannah and Sam would pull various different stories. They would say to some people the deals are "Cash Only", and to other people they would receive the wire transfers which was in the name of both Samuel J Choi and Hannah De Los Santos. This was in a joint checking account. These are sums of money that Hannah would surely know about, and which is why she is clearly complicit.

IT IMPLODES

Sam Choi somehow got ahead of himself with collecting funds, and sometime in mid 2019, his entire ponzi scheme began to implode. His debt to investors started to amass and then his lies started to get grander.

ISSUING BAD CHECKS AND REFUNDS

In an effort to show good faith, Sam and Hannah began issuing checks to people, claiming that they would be paid back within a few days. However most if not all of these checks bounced from the issuing bank. Sam and Hannah wrote bad checks purposely, likely he closed the accounts or moved the funds so there was nothing ever in them. They then acted surprised and claimed that all the funds in the bank accounts were frozen as they had too much money.

Fake bank Statements - Sam wanted to show that he had money to people, so he created fake bank statements. This lead to people holding off and waiting, or believing him and investing heavily into him.

FAKE POLICE INVESTIGATION

In order to further buy himself time, Sam claimed he was being investigated by "Investigator Park". Said it was a detective who was doing serious digging. They ended up dropping the case, but as usual the funds will take time to be disbursed.

Investigator Park was a gym member that he ripped off and didn't pay the refund to. Surprisingly when he gave her, her funds back, she decided not to pursue him further. She wasn't a big victim, and Sam was able to refund her while keeping her off his tail.

FAKING HIS PARENTS DEATH

Around July to September of 2019, Sam Choi claimed that his father had died and subsequently his mother as well. He made a big display of sharing deathbed and funeral home photos, however if you just visit his parents house located at:

11845 207th Street
Lakewood, CA 90715

You’ll find that the couple who won’t answer the door is actually Sam Choi’s parents, both alive and well – actually their alive and ashamed of their son. Probably not the mom though, because she’s a scammer. Sam also claims to have bought their home for them, but as confirmed with family – he has never done such a thing. His family is living rather poorly and just rents a simple apartment.

FAKING THE SPREADING OF THEIR ASHES

Sam Choi continued to lie about his parent’s death and claimed to be traveling to China to spread their ashes – or going to Hong Kong to get funds – or Japan for banking. He has many stories for different parties. In reality, he and Hannah De Los Santos went to Japan on vacation in September, likely with the money they conned from everyone.

THE LIE CONTINUES – FUNDS BEING FREEZED

In an effort to appease angry investors, Sam’s continued feign of innocence led to him lying about his funds being held, not available or waiting for release. This is an ongoing lie he uses, but he has been spotted recently at multiple casinos – and also at banks to pull money… for the casino.

SAM IS A COMPULSIVE GAMBLER

Sam has been spotted at Hawaiian Gardens Casino (playing two tables or whatever), and (randomly list other casinos in OC here, because fuck it he has probably been to all of them). Multiple sources have spotted him at casinos, inclusing police officers who were investigating him after he frauded his gym members.

There are no limits to their victims. The victims list goes on and on from High School children to Handicapped children. There is no limit as Sam even cheated all of his family that he was able to get ahold of. The following are only a couple of Sam's victims.

They build up a story, get people to believe and trust in them before they go scamming people in mass.

WHERE IS SAM NOW

Sam claims to be in San Diego currently working on a PPE deal with hospitals in Mexico. He claims to be going back and forth. As always he assures once the deal goes through everyone will get paid. He says he has millions in his bank account, but his assets are frozen, and as soon as they are unfrozen, he will make sure everyone gets paid, and just wants to live his life again.

His stories have so many holes in it, and he can no longer keep up with his lies. Why is he doing PPE if he has all the money? Why is he selling PPE and having the money deposited to a frozen bank account! Why doesn't he ever wanna meet with somebody and prove that his bank accounts are frozen, and that the money is in the account. He refuses to ever meet up with anybody because he knows his lies would be found out.

He would frequently make up lies that he's in Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, San Francisco, etc. People would gladly volunteer to go there the same day, and he would just stop replying to messages. The only person he communicates with regularly and replies to regularly is his loving and supportive wife Hannah De Los Santos.

Sam also claims to be running from Mexican loan sharks who are following him around everywhere. He claims that it's from real estate deals that turned sour, and they are upset they have lost money. This is another bogus claim with no merit, as he has been in Texas borrowing money.

Sam has also been said to have traveled to Texas for money and passed on his former Assistant’s James information to loan sharks and debt collectors. He has notified them that James will take care of any money that he owes. Now James Is getting harassed everyday by individuals demanding the money Sam borrowed/stole, while James cannot even locate Sam himself, and never agreed to such deals.

Hannah Is No Innocent Bystander

THEY ARE HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEARTS

Hannah and Sam have been together since High School. So when Hannah supports Sam being a veteran, she knows that he clearly did not graduate from West Point and serve in the military. People have contacted me that Sam has scammed them 10 years ago. There's no way that Hannah could not have known about all of this.

HANNAH LIES AND COVERS UP FOR SAM

When confronted during the time around Sam's "Parents' death" Hannah's responses are in line with Sam's lies. She claims that he just needs to get over his parents death, and he will surely pay everyone back.

She tells people to give him the space and time that he needs to get over this rough part of his life. These lies made people also believe that his parents died. She reassured people that he had the funds, when in fact all his statements were lies which she helped facilitate.

HANNAH HAS THE FUNDS

When Sam was actually located and confronted, he has actually claimed that Hannah has a bulk of the funds. She has kept the money despite knowing that Sam owes several people money, and Sam has stated the money was his.

HANNAH HAS NOT SERVED SAM DIVORCE PAPERS

Hannah will state several times that they are not together anymore, and she is clearly still in contact with Sam and can meet him at anytime of her choosing (unlike Sam's Victims). When Hannah is sent a text, Sam will quickly reply asking who it is. Even though he will ignore his victims for days / weeks / months. Hannah will not sign any divorce papers, or serve any papers. She is just trying to stay out of the fire even though she is clearly still involved.

HANNAH WENT TO A VACATION IN JAPAN WITH SAM

Hannah visited Japan around the same time Sam Choi lied about his parents dying and his travel to Asia to spread their ashes. Instagram posts from Hannah prove that she was with Sam Choi in Japan, likely on vacaton with the money they stole from people. They gladly went on vacation with other people's money, and had no remorse about it. She was even notified days before that Sam was a scammer, but did not care, as long as she got to spend it!

OTHER VACATIONS WHILE SAM WAS SCAMMING AWAY!

These are other photos of places she's been. Some of the earlier photos were around the time when Sam first started scamming. Please remember his scams are not something he built over a short period of time, but he built his entire life around his scams! Fake Military Vet, Fake West Point Grad, Fake PhD, Fake Green Beret + Fake Millionaire, Fake Real Estate Tycoon + More. From speaking with people he's been scamming years prior!

HANNAH CHOI

Despite Hannah's claims that she is not together, she still calls herself Hannah Choi, although her legal name has never been changed despite being married. She will refer to her name using Hannah Choi frequently. it is very suspicious for someone who is "not together", when her legal name has always been Hannah De Los Santos.

Her instagram has her as "Hannah De Los Choi", and her facebook has her as "Hannah Choi". There's no reason to keep that given that she hasn't even changed her maiden name when they got married.

She also made sure to keep all of the special photos that they have posted together.

I understand, it's not necessary to remove everything from Social Media. Social media's toxic, you don't want to be on there all the time. But she still posts pictures occasionally. She still checks her social media. If Sam is wanted by Mexican Loan Sharks and Debt Collectors, would it not make sense to remove the images? Or is she so proud of being together, that she refuses to remove it?

Sam clearly found a good Ride or Die Chick!

Are you a victim?

First I will say, please follow the law. They are well aware of what they can get away with and what they can't. File police reports, contact the FBI, report Hannah to the nursing board.

When you file a police report please make it a criminal complaint. The only reason Sam has the money is because it was swindled, he wasn't honest about the businesses he was doing. He has scammed people by making up stories.
