Homeland Security Investigations and Customs and Border Protection have credible information that an individual in the Baja California border region (the “Recruiter”) has placed help wanted advertisements on Facebook seeking persons to transport currency across the border. Credible information indicates at least some individuals who responded to the ads and drove vehicles across the border were not told they were instead smuggling aliens into the United States. Based on the investigation, there are a few common characteristics linked to the Recruiter: 􀁸 After a person responds to one of the advertisements, they typically encounter a person that identifies him- or herself as “Javier,” “Javier Alberto,” “Alberto,” “Sandra,” “Sarahi,” or “Omar.” 􀁸 The Recruiter uses a few common telephone numbers, each with a 664-area code, to communicate with drivers. 􀁸 The Recruiter instructs drivers to meet at a convenience store on Boulevard Padre Kino in Tijuana before the drivers cross the border. 􀁸 The amount the Recruiter pays drivers varies but is often between $500 and $1000 per crossing.
