Border cartels use TikTok, social media to recruit American teens to smuggle migrants for cash

Cartels at the southern border are targeting American teenagers on social media to get them to do their dirty work of smuggling illegal immigrants into the U.S. — the latest sign of the escalating chaos at the border.

Images obtained by Fox News shows the ads cartels are using on social media apps like TikTok, where they offer more than $3,000 a ride for teens and young adults to come drive smuggled migrants into the U.S. when they reach the border.

“Need 2 or 3 drivers to go through a checkpoint,” one says.

“Got another 6 left, already crossed. Lemme know ASAP for that easy cash,” another says.

If they take it, their job is to get migrants through checkpoints and then to a drop-off location like a store parking lot, where the migrants are then picked up by someone trusted by the cartel and transferred to stash houses scattered along the border.

There were 172,000 migrant encounters in March alone, but authorities have estimated there are more than 1,000 “gotaways” – people who got into the U.S. by sneaking past Border Patrol – every single day.

  1. It’s saving lives from climate crisis and a few successful Mexican entrepreneurs are paying them. Even using software company’s owned by Asians. Totally racist to not support this.
