Sylvia is one of 19 immigrant victims who claim Leticia Avila robbed them out of thousands of dollars after she allegedly claimed she was an immigration attorney and promised that she could get them the visas needed to stay in this country.
Sylvia says they paid Avila $4,000.
“She just stole all our money. She was not going to do anything.”
The article didn't say how the woman got caught. If one of her victims reported her then that is just plain stupid. If that was the case then in effect the "victim' ratted herself out to immigration. I know that here in NJ this happens a lot more than one would think. In one city here about 8 years ago a Hispanic couple were posing as lawyers offering to get green cards in 6 months for $2,000. They scammed quite a few people then one day the man who was scamming landed in the emergency room with a machete wound to his stomach.
I have a hard time working up alot of indignation about this considering how many people illegal immigrant have to scam to stay in this country, how many identities they steal, how many employers take their information in good faith etc.
SO cry me a river and you can ride it back to where ever you are from my friends.
"Sylvia Flores is racing against the clock to get medical treatment for her 13 year old son with Down syndrome before she and her family are deported and sent back to Uruguay"
Would I be wrong to assume that this family,even though illegal , does have health insurance? Or is there a chance that they are receiving "taxpayer funded " insurance coverage

Good. Now they can't use that money to pay a coyote to sneak them across the border.
