Detriot Detectives Bust Job Scam Ring In Williamson Building

They lured men from across the city with promised ranch work in Nevada and other states, collecting wages before disappearing. Investigators say the operation drew laborers from various neighborhoods. Authorities described the venture as a large, deceptive employment push with staged client ads and fake offices.
