Jeanett Moskito has two companies - Link4Staff and Berderald Consulting - that she uses to scam migrant workers.

Philippines consulates in Israel and Canada both warn people from using her services and she’s still posting on the Job Bank.

A months-long investigation reveals she is one of the Ontario Ministry of Labour’s most notorious repeat offenders, caught 35 times taking payments from dozens of foreign workers in exchange for finding them jobs — which is illegal across Canada.

So far, Moskito’s punishment has been to pay back the money she took illegally — a total of about $200,000 — along with paying a handful of ministry-imposed $250 fines.

In the article: rotten story from a young dad who’s now living in a homeless shelter; the CEO of Hoco Hotels in Stratford, Ont claims ignorance and says he’s “not happy”; and comments from 2 Filipino Canadian immigration lawyers, the MoL (bland “changes are coming” “we won’t tolerate bad actors”) and Migrante Ontario.

    Stop right there. Repeat offenders are a symptom of a legal system that doesn’t work.

    We issued a few $250 fines, which is a tiny risk worth taking for these criminals making hundreds of thousands of dollars through their illegal activities.

    If we gave long prison sentences, she wouldn’t be able to victimize 35 times!

    And if her actions resulting in someone being homeless, skip prison and let her live on the street for a few years as a learning experience.

    Also, why isn’t this being seen as human-trafficking? The UN quite literally defines human trafficking as the “… recruitment, transportation, transfer, harbouring or receipt of people through force, fraud or deception, with the aim of exploiting them for profit.”.

    That’s exactly what she did, and only got a small fine for it???

    Edit: grammar
