Fake Immigration Attorney In Tysons Area Charged By Police
Fairfax County Police alleged the woman provided legal services she wasn't licensed to perform to vulnerable populations.
TYSONS, VA — Fairfax County Police have charged a woman who they say falsely posed as an attorney and took money for legal assistance related to immigration.
Earlier in 2021, detectives became aware of Americanos for America Party Incorporated, which victims paid for legal services related to immigration. Police say victims met Jasmine Moawad, 45, of Gainesville, in Tysons office space and paid for legal services she was not licensed to provide.
Fairfax County Police arrested Moawad Wednesday with assistance from Virginia State Police and Prince William County Police. She was charged with two felony counts of larceny by false pretenses, taken to the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center and released on an $8,000 unsecured bond.
