The defense lawyer for the rights of migrants, Omar Silva, alerted the general population not to be victims of fraud, after the government of Canada detected that with false documentation they are supposedly recruiting workers to take them to work in that country, which has been denied, because the existing program does not work that way.
However, they denounced that the letterhead used is not adequate, the logo does not correspond to the current administration, but they are details that people do not notice. In addition, according to the lawyer, the authority that is really in charge is the Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare together with the National Employment Service, “they are the only authorities in charge of this program of temporary agricultural workers to Canada, but it does not regulate what related to H2A visas, which are those granted to temporary workers to the United States ”, he specified.
Silva pointed out that this information was released by the Canadian government itself and had been sent to him to be published on the official website of the organizations he works with.

Rosa described the hook that two abusive women use to steal financial support aged 65 and over. His first victim in Guanajuato, registered in León, is Mrs. Rosa Elena.
The trap Rosa fell into was offered to her by two young women – whose names are not known and physical features are not remembered. On the afternoon of September 3, at the closing of the magazine and newspaper booth, the scammers approached Rosa, the owner, and asked her about her neighbor: “the old woman who lives alone in the area”, but Rosa did not know who they were talking about. .
