$75 dollars for a Green Card
Thats the going rate for a very good fake I was told by someone in the know this morning. Arizona is trying to cut down on the fakes circulating by targeting the makers of the fakes. Good luck!.

Many years ago my brother lived in NYC. He was legal, hated it here and had no intention of staying but he was offered GC's all the time. The going rate then was about $500. Amazing how much it's been devalued over the years. :cool:

He's talking Arizona --- you're talking NYC Two years ago I believe the going rate in DC was over $500 according to one poster who got caught at the Can/Am border with it. Can even buy the social security card. |

According to some Mexicans that I know, the going rate in Mexico is $100 for social security cards, $300 for a state drivers liscense and $500 for a (new style) green card. There are also some crappy fakes available for less, that might fool some people but not many.
A premium package is also available, usually from a former legal immigrant who has returned to Mexico or has 'lost' his wallet- where in you get his/her actual greencard, a valid SS number and liscense. Of course you have to look similar to the person. This costs $2-3000, and is the best was, as most employers check the social security number to validate it and the name if the person applying. Fake SS cards don't. |

I have to agree with you there. The old pink green cards looked pretty easy to forge but I recently renewed mine and boy has it got boats loads of stuff on it. I just can't see anyone trying to forge them. A lot of work has gone into redesigning it. I guess now its a Magnolia card or beige card. :) |
