Rafael Paez Guerrero/Venezuela/Credit Card Fraud

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Rafael Paez Guerrero, a criminal illegal alien from Venezuela, in Canton, Georgia, on charges of fraudulent use of credit cards.

Credit card fraud involves the unauthorized use of another person’s financial information to obtain goods or services. Under Georgia law, fraudulent use of credit cards is a serious criminal offense that can carry felony penalties depending on the amounts involved and the number of victims. Criminal illegal aliens convicted of financial fraud are subject to both state criminal penalties and federal removal proceedings.

ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations officers apprehended Paez Guerrero in Canton. He currently remains in federal immigration custody and faces removal proceedings before a Department of Justice immigration judge, with potential deportation back to Venezuela.
