I did.

Live and learn.

What do you think?

Answer 1

That has got to be one of the lamest,lowest,dirtiest scams I have ever heard tell of.

For $50.00 you can claim to be a Native American of a now defunct tribe- oh boy- it's just like the circus came to town isn't it?

I guess that tribe doesn't take their heritage too seriously.

Answer 2

Bothered by Illegal Mexicans?? Consider Profiteering like the Native Americans are. Just a little payback for Mexicans trying to takeover the 4 corners (Native American Holy Land) where Colorado, Arizona, Utah, and New Mexico meet.

Maybe Illegals need to rethink WHY Mexicans speak SPANISH and take a good long look at themselves before claiming ANY original land in USA.

Answer 3

This is disgraceful behavior. I hope that perps get the maximum possible sentence for this crime. Not all immigrants come to the US to work, some are criminals who prey on American citizens. Shame on these Native Americans!

Answer 4

I'm afraid of a real Tribe might try this. I think Casino's might prevent some of them because they don't want to share the profits, but there are alot of poor tribes in bad locations.

Answer 5

I think they have been had........ I have a bridge for sale over the Chesapeake Bay, any one interested?

Slew, good point - wonder if an Indian nation could grant citizenship?

Answer 6

Some people don't realize that there are people here just waiting for some suckers to arrive so they can cheat them out of their money.

Answer 7

I had no idea something like this existed. I hope ICE goes back and investigates everyone of their deals and prosecutes them all.

Answer 8

its sad that American Indians are taking advantage of ppl. Doens't speak very highly of them now does it!?!?

Illegals immigrants do break laws by being here, but they shouldn't be taken advantage of that way.
