> Scam ALERT – US Citizenship through phony Indian tribe
Phony Tribe Scams Illegals
Byline/Source: Corinna Spencer-Scheurich/STCRP
Saturday, 14 July 2007
Throughout South Texas, a group calling itself the “Kaweah Indian
Nation” has been selling “citizenship” into the tribe to
undocumented immigrants. Representatives have claimed that these
documents will eventually lead to U.S. citizenship allow the owner
to travel freely in the country and into and out of the country.
They are approaching pastors of small rural churches, a place of
deep faith and trust for immigrant families, and convincing them to
sign up their congregations. The federal government does not
recognize the Kaweah Indian Nation; in fact, its application was
denied in the 1980s. Only one recognized tribe, the Kickapoo near
Eagle Pass, has the right to dual citizenship in United States and
Mexico because of the location of its historic tribal lands. This
scam has spread across the United States and Mexico. We have had
calls from Houston and as far away as Georgia and California. I am
working hard to spread the word that families should not buy these
papers and should not present these papers to government officials
as proof of any right to be in the United States. Below is an
article from the Rio Grande Valley newspaper.
