"Police said they later found a sophisticated counterfeiting operation at Perfecto Cruz's home, where they allege he produced fake green cards, driver's licenses and Social Security cards." Did he change his name to match his ocupation or was that his birth name and his family raise and teach him to be what he is?

YOWZA! What a read!

How come they all start out in Santa Monica?

Pedro Castorena and Manuel Leija-Sanchez operated out of a Chinese laundry in Chicago, where hundreds of documents were sold every day, Suad said. The men, along with other family members, would count the earnings daily.

"One thousand, two thousand and sometimes five thousand dollars,'' she said.

Suad recalled how her family went from poverty to riches in only a few years.

There is also money to be made by pretending that the false document is passable.

I guess the point is: we have to have a good way of making businesses hang their butts out if they don't check, and we have to have a way for them to cover their butts if they check.

A web page isn't enough. It is too easy to change the address that you check in the human resources department, and "someone" in the human resources department would be amply paid to make the switch.

Suad Leija, thank you.

[butternut_squash_bisque]

Fraud is rampant anyway. Too much money to be made by hiring illegal aliens.

.....”Now WHY would ‘poor mexicans’ need phony “hazardous materials licenses” to mow lawns in the USA ??”.....

They are not just mowing lawns, they are providing chemical liquid services that involve fertilizer and pesticide application. This is much more lucrative than just mowing and weedeating.
