LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) – Two suspects were arrested in Chicago in connection to a fraud scheme that drew hundreds of job seekers.
On Jan. 31, a crowd gathered outside a Sunset and Pecos business after an online ad was posted, looking for third-party Amazon drivers. The opportunity spread through the Cuban community by word-of-mouth, FOX5 learned.
They would later learn that the opportunities did not exist after they handed over money and sensitive information.
