A Chinese woman carrying malware in USB drive was arrested at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club over the weekend during his Florida visit.
Yujing Zhang, 32 have been charged for 2 Federal crimes: For making a false statement to Federal officers and entering the restricted property.
According to court documents, she told Secret Service agents that she was the member of the pool and she wanted to use the pool, but upon further inquiry, she said that she had traveled from Shanghai to attend a “United Nations Friendship Event” between China and the United States.
But there is no such event scheduled and she also not in the member’s list, agents said. Agent Samuel Ivanovich said she was taken off the grounds and she becomes argumentative, so she has been taken to Secret Service agents.
She carried out four cellphones, a laptop computer, an external hard drive and a thumb drive containing computer malware, but not having the swimsuit, reads APnews report.

“While the Secret Service does not determine who is permitted to enter the club, our agents and officers conduct physical screenings to ensure no prohibited items are allowed onto the property,” a U.S. Secret Service spokesperson said.
According to APnews, “Yang recently made news after it was learned she was promising Chinese business leaders that her consulting firm could get them access to Mar-a-Lago”.
