"She has also been slapped with an immigration warrant, according to the Department of Corrections website. A law enforcement source said Chung has overstayed her student visa. That means it's likely Chung will have to face a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement hearing after she appears in court Wednesday, immigration attorney Gadi Zohar told The Post. "It could trigger her being taken away if she had a visa that expired," Zohar speculated to The Post as to what could happen next to Chung."
"The faux influencer - mostly seen wearing designer shoes, carrying Louis Vuitton handbags and Hermes belts on her Instagram - came to the US in 2019 as a student on a scholarship to attend Brooklyn's Pratt Institute until 2021. It is not believed she has any other family members in the US. According to her Linkedin page, her last job was in 2023, when she claims she worked as a consultant for Chase bank as a Senior User Experience Designer for eight months."
Pei Chung, 34, has been jailed on theft-of-service charges after allegedly skipping bills at at least 11 high-end Brooklyn restaurants since October. Department of Corrections records show an immigration warrant and a law enforcement source said Chung overstayed her student visa. Immigration officers will likely take Chung to an ICE hearing after her upcoming court appearance. Attorney Gadi Zohar said expired visas can trigger removal and that criminal charges probably prompted the warrant. Chung arrived in the US in 2019 on a Pratt Institute scholarship and lists UX and consulting roles on LinkedIn, with rent and employment lapses reported.
