Authorities said two men posed as DHS Agents and falsely promised they could provide lawful immigration documents and legal status for immigrants. In addition, they claimed to be able to stop deportation proceedings. Authorities contend they took about $6 million in fees from some 150 victims in the U.S. and Mexico.
