Really wish this existed in the 90's when my family moved to the US from eastern europe. A non-exhaustive list of scams my parents fell for:
- Investing money in a friend's company - this was the most painful as it was perpetuated by our family members who lived here for a while that we trusted
- Rainbow vacuum cleaner
- Aqualife water filter
- Hiring someone to take us to another city to buy a car to "help get a good deal" - turned out he was working for the seller, and it was not a good deal at all
- A summer job for me selling Vector cutlery
Unfortunately it's easy to scam new immigrants, this happened for hundred years and still happening now.
