(Title 18, United States Code, Section 1001.)

The bases for my knowledge and the foregoing charges,

are, in part, as follows:

5. I have been a Special Agent at the FBI since

approximately 2010. Since 2011, I have been assigned to the
Counterintelligence Division within the New York Field Office of
the FBI. The focus of my counterintelligence efforts has been
on investigating the foreign intelligence activities of the
People's Republic of China.

6. I have learned the facts contained in this

Complaint from, among other sources, my personal participation
in this investigation, my discussions with other law enforcement
agents, searches in which I have participated, surveillance in
which I have participated, and my review of documents,
electronic recordings, and other materials. Because this
Complaint is being submitted for the limited purpose of
establishing probable cause, it does not include every fact that
I have learned during the course of this investigation.
Further, any statements related herein are described in
substance and in part only.

BACKGROUND

7. KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant,

has been an employee of the FBI since approximately 1997.
During the course of his employment, CHUN served as an
electronics technician. As a result of that position, the FBI
granted CHUN a Top Secret security clearanc~, and his duties

3
included accessing sensitive, and in some instance classified,
information. Like all FBI employees in similar positions, CHUN
was advised of FBI policy regarding reporting contacts with
foreign nationals and agents of foreign powers. CHUN was warned
by the FBI of the risk that foreign nationals and agents of
foreign powers may seek to develop relationships with him in an
effort to obtain the sensitive information to which he had
access or to develop leverage that could be used to coerce CHUN
to divulge such information.

8. However, since at least approximately 2006, KUN

SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant, and certain of his
relatives maintained relationships with one or more Chinese
nationals purporting to be affiliated with a company in China
named Zhuhai Kolion Technology Company Ltd. ("Kolion"). Through
those relationships, CHUN was asked to perform research and
consulting tasks in the United States in exchange for financial
benefits, including paid foreign travel. During this period,
CHUN had contact with at least one individual whom CHUN
understood to be affiliated with the Chinese government.

9. As recently as July 2015, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a

"Joey Chun," the defendant, met with one or more of his Chinese
associates in Europe. During the same timeframe, CHUN informed
an FBI Special Agent acting in an undercover capacity (the "UC")
that he wanted to introduce the UC to one or more of his Chinese
associates in an effort to develop a "consulting" relationship
between himself, the UC, and his Chinese associates. CHUN also
expressed a willingness to facilitate the passage of sensitive
United States Government information from the UC to one or more
of his Chinese associates, including individuals associated with
the Chinese Government.

10. The investigation of these activities revealed

that KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant, made a
series of false statements to the FBI regarding his contact with
these Chinese nationals and Kolion as part of a long-standing
and concerted effort to conceal these relationships.

11. In October 2015, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey

Chun," the defendant, told the UC during a recorded meeting, in
substance and in part, that CHUN's failure as an FBI employee to
report his foreign contacts was illegal because "[y]ou have to
report," and acknowledged to the UC "I lied, I reported certain
people [but] not everybody."

 THE DEFENDANT'S EMPLOYMENT AT THE FBI

12. KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant,

was born in G~angdong, China in approximately 1969. He entered
the United States in approximately 1980, and became a
naturalized citizen of the United States in approximately 1985.

13. KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant,

reported to the FBI that he met Joey Yan Yi Zhou in
approximately August 2011, and that he married Zhou in late
2013.

14. Since approximately 1997, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a

"Joey Chun," the defendant, has worked at the FBI's New York
Field Office as an electronics technician assigned to the
Computerized Central Monitoring Facility of the FBI's Technical
Branch. In connection with his employment, the FBI granted CHUN
a Top Secret security clearance in approximately 1998.

15. Prior to taking an international trip, FBI

employees are required to complete a form with information
regarding planned foreign travel, including the purpose of the
trip, the planned itinerary, anticipated travel companions, and
anticipated contact with foreign nationals. FBI employees are
also required to participate in debriefings regarding their
foreign travel upon returning from an international trip, which
can include a written questionnaire as well as an interview.

16. On approximately nine occasions between

approximately 2000 and the present, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey
Chun," the defendant, reported to the FBI travel to the areas of
Hong Kong and China.

17. During the same period, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a

"Joey Chun," the defendant, also reported to the FBI additional
travel to Canada, Thailand, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.

18. In connection with his international travel while

employed at the FBI, KUN BHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the
defendant, was warned regarding the need to report contacts with
foreign nationals and agents of foreign powers and the risks
associated with his travel. For example, in November 2009, CHUN
signed a document confirming that he had received a "Foreign
Travel/Hit Briefing." The briefing document included the
following warnings:

5
 a. "Foreign intelligence services are
interested in you because you are an American, you are a U.S.
Government employee, you work in the Intelligence Community, you
have access to sensitive information & you work in Law
Enforcement."

b. "Typical approaches [by Foreign intelligence

s~rvices] include: Recruitment: The attempt to establish a
clandestine relationship with a subject through his/her
voluntary cooperation."

THE DEFENDANT'S UNREPORTED AFFILIATION WITH KOLION

19. According to a publicly available website, Kolion

purports to be a China-based manufacturer of printer products
with over 100 employees.

20. Following a December 2005 trip to China by KUN

SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant, CHUN sent an email
on or about January 13, 2006, to an individual identified as
"Mr. Su," whom I believe, based on my training, experience, and
participation in this investigation, is a Chinese national
associated with Kolion. CHUN's email stated: "Just want to
take[] this opportunity to thank you for a very informative[]
introduction to your company, and [I] have learned alot about
your operation. I am very delighted that [I] met you and Mr.
Chow. I hope we will continue to work together in the future.
Below is my Skype User Name and emails. Please relate this
email to Simon Chow too." In the email, CHUN provided a Skype
account, three email addresses, a telephone number, and his
physical address, and asked that they "start communicating soon
through the internet."

21. On or about November 27, 2007, KUN SHAN CHUN,

a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant, sent an email to an individual
who identified himself as "Simon." Based on my training,
experience, and participation in this investigation, I believe
that "Simon" is the "Simon Chow" to whom CHUN referred in his
January 13, 2006 email to "Mr. Su." The email contained
passport numbers associated with CHUN, his mother, and a third
party. On or about November 30, 2007, CHUN departed on a trip
to Hong Kong and China, from which he returned on or about
December 14, 2007.

6
 22. On or about December 18, 2007, "Mr. Su" sent an
email to KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant. The
email stated that "Mr. Su" had learned a lot from their
discussions and asked CHUN to review an attachment relating to a
printer cartridge~ CHUN forwarded the message to an individual
believed to be one of CHUN's brothers ("Brother-1"). In a
subsequent message sent on or about February 27, 2008, CHUN
explained to Brother-1: "Actually those guys want[] us to help
them out to buy the device do[] all the programming, and erase
them entirely . . .. According to them, they will give us money
for the time we spend[] on this research, and they will pay us
back if they decided [to] let us . . buy the[] equipment[]."

23. KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant,

received an email on May 20, 2009, addressed to shareholders of
Kolion and signed by "Simon Zhou." Based on my training and.
experience, I believe that the name "Chow" is a Cantonese
spelling for "Zhou," and therefore that "Simon Zhou" and "Simon
Chow" are the same person.

24. On or about June 3, 2009, "Simon" sent an email

to KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant, regarding
Kolion' s five-year anniversary. CHUN responded: "me- and my mom-
congratulate you and your company's successful[] years.
Hopefully in the future I will have time to visit you and your
company." On or about November 9, 2009, CHUN sent "Simon"
passport numbers for himself and other relatives. On or about
December 6, 2009, CHUN departed on a trip to Hong Kong, China,
and Thailand, from which he returned on or about December 24,
2009.

25. On or about January 7, 2010, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a

"Joey Chun," the defendant, exchanged messages with Brother-1.
During the exchange, CHUN stated: "[I] need to get SSD [solid
state hard drive] for the people in China. they are paying
[I] want to order them and have Aunt Chun bring them back
to them, because she is leaving on the 13 . . they want to.
wire money to me, but [I] told them [I] pay for it now, and just
give money to father so he can bring it back."

26. On or about October 14, 2010, KUN SHAN CHUN,

a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant, exchanged messages with
Brother-1. During the exchange, CHUN stated: "[Y]ou know where
I can go to find companies that do remanufacturing toner
cartridges[?] [T]he company in china needs that
information quick[.]" After Brother-1 sent CHUN a link to a
website, CHUN responded: "[I] need a lot more[.] [S]o I can

7
 give them a report. . [I] think they need some market
res.earch so that if they get [sued] by [a] brand name company in
the future, they can use these data to fight back."

27. On or about September 29, 2011, "Simon" sent an

email to KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant, which
included information relating to hotels in France and Italy and
stated "Five Star Hotel the entire way." On or about September
29, 2011, CHUN responded to the email by sending full names and
passport numbers for himself and Zhou, his future wife. On or
about September 30, 2011, CHUN forwarded some of the hotel
information from "Simon" to Brother-1 and another relative with
a message that stated: "It's a short notice, [I] got invited to
a 10 day[] trip to Europe by the company in China. Joey
Zhou is travel[]ing with me, well her ticket has to pay for."
On or about October 5, 2011, CHUN and Zhou departed on a trip to
France and Italy, from which they returned on or about October
14, 2011.

28. On or about December 23, 2011, KUN SHAN CHUN,

a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant, sent "Su Guolin" a series of
photographs of CHUN and others that appear to have been taken in
-- - ----France and - Italy.

THE FBI'S 2012 SECURITY CLEARANCE REINVESTIGATION

29. In approximately 2012, the FBI conducted a

regularly scheduled reinvestigation of KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a
"Joey Chun," the defendant, in order to determine whether he
should continue to maintain a Top Secret security clearance.

30. In connection with the 2012 reinvestigation, on

or about February 27, 2012, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun,"
the defendant, completed an "Electronic Questionnaire for
Investigations Processing," which is also known as an "e-QIP."
The e-QIP included the following warnings, among others:

responded "Yes" to the statement: "I have read the instructions
and I understand that if I withhold, misrepresent, or falsify

36. On or about July 17, 2015, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a

"Joey Chun," the defendant, submitted to the FBI a "Foreign

have been taken in Europe during the trip that CHUN and Zhou

took in July 2015. Certain of the photographs depict CHUN

together with, among others, a male who is also depicted in the

photographs described above in paragraph 28, which appear to

have been taken in France and Italy in October 2011.

THE DEFENDANT'S ADMISSIONS TO THE UC

38. In or about February 2015, the FBI caused the UC

to be introduced to KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the

defendant, in connection with the investigation. The UC

purported to be a U.S. citizen born in China who was working as

a consultant to several firms, in.eluding an independent

contractor that works for, among other entities, the Department

of Defense.

10

 39. In or about March 2015, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a

"Joey Chun," the defendant, met with the UC in the vicinity of
New York City. The meeting was recorded. 2 During the meeting:

a. CHUN explained that an associate from

Zhuhai, China, had introduced CHUN to another man in Guangzhou,
China who owned a company---subsequently identified by CHUN as
Kolion---that sold parts for computer printers. CHUN's
associates in China had asked CHUN to "consult" by providing
"ideas" relating to "technology," and to ship materials from the
United States to them in China. Later in the meeting, CHUN
indicated that his Chinese associates "deal with the [Chinese]
government" and "probably have some government people."

b. CHUN stated, in sum and substance, that his

associates in China sometimes paid for prostitutes for him when
they met, that his mother owned stock. in Kolion, and that his
parents had received money from his Chinese associates.

backing," and that approximately five years prior his mother met
a "section chief" whom CHUN believed is associated with the

stated: "I know this government guy," but that he did not "want
to get involved because once I get involved then I have to
disclose that 11

b. CHUN said that his parents had "invested" in

Kolion approximately 10 years ago and also purchased property in
China.

2
The information set forth herein relating to meetings and
communications between KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the
defendant, and the UC is based on conversations with the UC,
recordings of the meetings that were obtained by the UC, which
were conducted predominantly in English, and draft .summary
transcriptions and translations of the meetings to the extent
available.

11

 c. CHUN's parents had urged him to work for or

with his Chinese associates because of their investment in
Kolion. CHUN believed his parents had informed CHUN's Chinese
associates that CHUN worked "at the U.S. Government," and that
they typically notify CHUN's Chinese associates before CHUN
travels to China.

d. CHUN stated that, when he visits his Chinese

associates they "give me a place to live and give me a hotel."

e. "[E] very time" CHUN travels to China, his

Chinese associates ask him, "'what do you have for us . . . what
do you have?,'" and if CHUN did not have anything his Chinese
associates acted "kind of like pissed off" because "[t]hey want
you to have everything."

f. CHUN explained: "My company i.e., Kolion]

always . wants me, like, 'hey, why don't you talk to
them, talk to the government officials?' I say 'no I can't do
that because . then I have to disclose that . '"

41. In or about April 2015, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a

"Joey Chun," the defendant; traveled with the UC to a casino in
Connecticut. Many of the conversations between CHUN and the UC
during the trip were recorded. During the trip:

a. CHUN said that his Chinese associates "like

to travel once a year. [a]nd they usually . ask me,
'where do you wanna go?'" CHUN stated that he did not select
the location of the meetings, but that he had "suggest[ed]
ideas" that his Chinese associates had adopted.

b. CHUN communicated with his Chinese

associates via an application called "WeChat" and tried to avoid
using the phone "[i]f it's anything.important" because "[w]ho
knows .who's listening on the other end."

c. CHUN said that he planned to travel to

Europe in or about June 2015 to meet with one or more of his
Chinese associates. CHUN told the UC that the Chinese
associates would pay half of the expenses associated with CHUN's
trip, and offered to introduce the UC to his Chinese associates
if the UC could meet with them during the trip in Europe.

12

43. In or about July 2015, the UC traveled to Hungary

and met with KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a "Joey Chun," the defendant, on
at least two occasions. The UC did not record meetings while in
.Hungary. .

a. During the first meeting, CHUN told the UC

that only one of his Chinese associates had traveled to Hungary,
and the "government guy" had not come on the trip. CHUN told
the UC that his Chinese associate would not be able to meet with
the UC because he was too busy, but that he had given CHUN 500
Euros to entertain the UC as an apology. 3 CHUN also told the UC
that his Chinese associate had partially paid for the travel of
CHUN and his wife.

b. During the second meeting, which occurred on

the following day, CHUN stated that he knew "firsthand" that the
Chinese government was actively recruiting individuals who could
provide assistance, and that the Chinese government was willing
to provide immigration benefits and other compensation in
exchange for such assistance. The UC told CHUN that he had
access to sensitive United States Government information. CHUN
responded that his Chinese associates would be interested in
that type of information, but that CHUN would have to travel to
China to arrange a deal to provide the information to them.

3
CHUN and the UC ate a meal together during the first meeting in
Hungary. The UC declined CHUN's offer to pay for the meal.

13
CHUN said that he expected a "cut" of any payment that the UC
received for providing information to the Chinese government.

44. In or about August 2015, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a

"Joey Chun," the defendant, met the UC in the vicinity of New
York City. The meeting was recorded. During the meeting:

information to which the UC purported to have access. CHUN told
the UC: "I could get you connected and then I'm going to stay
off. You know, you do your thing, you make your money, I don't
really care, but . If you make any money, just give me a
little bit . . "

b. CHUN agreed to meet with the UC in the

future in order to review the sensitive information so that CHUN
could describe it to his Chinese associates.

c. CHUN explained: "I'm already in deep shit

you know 'cause . . people that I met you know in China over
there I never disclose that, neve~. That's a fuckin' violation
right then and there you know?"

45. On or about August 29, 2015, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a

"Joey Chun," the defendant, participated in a call with the UC.
The call was recorded. During the call, CHUN was reluctant to
talk about details over the telephone, but informed the UC, in
sum and substance, that he had caused an email to be sent to one
of his Chinese associates in an effort to initiate a negotiation
about selling to them the sensitive information from the UC.

46. In or about October 2015, KUN SHAN CHUN, a/k/a

"Joey Chun," the defendant, met the UC in the vicinity of New
York City. The meeting was recorded. During the meeting:

a. CHUN explained that he had attempted

unsuccessfully to make contact with a Chinese government
official in order to facilitate the passage of sensitive
information from the UC.

b. CHUN told the UC: "I really don't care

about if . . . they i.e., the FBI] fire me but what if they
have evidence of you hanging out with. . foreign contact and
you're not reporting?" CHUN then told the UC that such a
failure to report was illegal and reiterated, "Yeah it is. For
us [FBI employees] it is. You have to report."
