D.A. warning paisanos on nationalization scams

By Ray Gomez

The Webb County District Attorney in conjunction with numerous law enforcement agencies and the Mexican consulate are teaming up to bring awareness to Paisanos.
In recent years so-called nationalization vendors have been taking advantage of Paisanos.
They ask for thousands of dollars to nationalize a vehicle and say you don't have to
"What it amounts at the end of the day is fraud and theft and what we need people to do is to stay more alert and be careful when these individuals approach you at a gas station." Webb County District Attorney Isidro “Chilo” Alaniz told Pro 8 News.
The 72-hour period cannot be avoided.
If a paisano crosses the border and has fraudulent documents they will lose their vehicle and can be sent to jail in Mexico.
