People would try anything just to see what they could get away with. Lol. No point sugarcoating with excuses or trying to defend a scam because the person behind it is a friend or a countryman. I think the people speaking against the deportation are wrong. It would have been worse. They might have been locked up, especially since what they did was illegal.
Thanks for this honest reply, we need to stop covering up for bad deeds, instead kick against it.
