weeeird, just got a Border Patrol hiring ad in YouTube, and when I went to block it, the advertiser name was in Cyrillic. "Сити Билд Пропъртис". Took a screenshot and translated it, and it just says "City Build Properties". Like, literally just a phonetic transcription.
Looking this up, it turns out to be a Bulgarian real estate company.
wtf is going on here?

@alltherum@freeradical.zone It's probably a variant of the old "US green card lottery" con, where firms would ask $100 to apply for entry to the US green card lottery, which the US government offered for free.
