Texas YouTuber and journalist Sara Gonzales, a reporter with Blaze Media, in her latest ambush investigative journalism video targeting business owners employing H-1B workers, accused Nagarjuna Reddysakam, the shareholder and director of Great America Technologies, of having ghost offices.

Gonzales, over the past few months, has ambushed multiple Indian-origin business owners and accused them of fraudulently hiring H-1B workers in “ghost offices.” She claims that these workers.

Gonzales accessed public information to identify the company’s origins and noted that the company was first started by Ashok Reddy, a resident of Andhra Pradesh, India, and Texas resident Laxmi Chaitanya, who later removed themselves and handed over control to Reddysakam in 2024.

She alleged that the company’s address was incorrect and the contact numbers were nonworking, claiming that the company had employed close to 30 H-1B workers without even having an office.

Reddysakam responded to the allegations, claiming that he had been receiving all communications from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and argued that his company is legitimate.

The conversation turned heated as Reddysakam accused Gonzales of targeting Indians, which was countered with claims of Indians “over-abusing” the H-1B system.

The new set of allegations comes days after Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sued a North Texas company and its Chinese owner, alleging they operated fake child care businesses to fraudulently obtain H-1B visas and deceive regulators.

The lawsuit came after Gonzales visited the listed address and instead found “an empty building and a playground overgrown with vegetation.”



The petition states that an individual familiar with the property told Gonzales that the facility had not operated “for some time” and alleged that Yao “sells visas.”

According to the lawsuit, Yao owned and managed several Texas entities, including Golden Qi Holdings, that allegedly used websites to portray themselves as operational child care facilities in Allen, Texas.
