The President of the Dominican Lawyers Association (CARD), Julio Cesar Terrero Carvajal, says that there are around 3,000 fake lawyers conning investors out of money, most of whom are active in the eastern part of the DR. Terrero says that the results were discovered after CARD's books were researched, revealing that many lawyers had received their certification in an illegal fashion. Terrero is asking judges to ask lawyers to present their CARD identification card when carrying out any legal work. Terrero also explained that CARD has received more than 800 complaints and have returned more than RD$55 million in cash and goods to people who have been conned.
