Fake Document Hub in Denver Servicing Illegals

Although Washington is still making the claim that Mexico is a friend, after the huge rally in Chicago against a law in Congress to toughen our laws against illegal entry I wonder. Then I read this and I begin to think that there is something more going on that a bunch of people from third world counties wanting to come here and work.

Federal and state authorities are working to permanently close a metro Denver counterfeit documents ring allegedly masterminded by a Mexico-based crime family they believe operates in at least 33 states, churning out tens of millions of dollars worth of fake IDs.

For months, investigators and prosecutors say they have been working quietly to shut down what they say is an extensive, international fake-document network involving more than 50 people working in Denver.

In one real estate scheme alone, fake documents were used by illegal aliens to purchase more than 300 homes valued at $51 million. Authorities say that some document forgers paid "franchise fees" upwards of $15,000 a month to participate in the phony documents network.

The workers, government prosecutors allege, created one-stop shopping for everything from fake alien registration cards to Social Security cards, counterfeit drivers' licenses, birth certificates and insurance cards, said Carl Rusnock, a spokesman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

"This is a situation where they were making all sorts of fraudulent documents," Rusnock said. "If you wanted a 'green card,' drivers' licenses from any state, a Social Security number. It was absolutely phenomenal the scope and the quality of the operation."

This is too big an operation just to be spontaneous. I have to discount the assurances of friendship from our neighbor to the south. Our nation is being colonized and we are running short on time to deal with it. The number one source of cash for the Mexican economy is oil, the number two is Mexicans living in America. It's time to recognize this for what it is and have our government get busy fixing the hole in the flood gates to the south.
