Why do they have to use the excuse of "Identity Theft" to justify this raid? How about the fact that they are illegal.
Swift has already released a statement that they have done nothing wrong.
They have to bring up the identity theft because all of these illegal workers claimed to have a social security or tax ID, wink wink, and the employers say good, that's what we needed, wink wink. The illegals either make up a number or steal someone's number. It should be easy enough to verify if a SSN or tax ID is genuine but the employers really don't want to look that hard as long as they are not getting in any trouble.
