Scammers deceive three people in Salina seeking US citizenship to send over $7,000.
According to the Salina Police Department (SPD) on Monday afternoon, three people seeking US citizenship visited the Salina Police station regarding a scam.
Reportedly back in January 2025, they were contacted via email by scammers claiming to be 'immigration lawyers.' These scammers advised they could 'assist them with their immigration status.'
Furthermore, the victims received various phone calls, followed by requests of money for filing fees and other reasons since the first initial contact in January.
The victims were listed as two 49-year old females, who lost $2,180 and a 34-year old male, losing $5,550.
SPD told Salina Post, they want to inform the community to be aware of scams, such as this crime.
