The following is summarized from this Breitbart article:
Abdullah Khan, an undercover reporter for Bild Magazine who worked for four months at a migrant reception center has revealed tactics that migrants use to exploit Germany’s immigration system, saying that 80% of those seeking asylum have no papers and many lie to quality for as many taxpayer-funded benefits as possible.
Following are points he had mentioned:
— “Many pose as minors traveling alone, because word has spread that they will qualify for more benefits. … To lie about their age, many people use false passports and other identity documents.”
— He reported that the majority claim to have lost their documents “while fleeing,” and claim to be Syrian because it gives them the best chance of receiving refugee status. Ninety-six percent of migrants claiming to be Syrian were awarded refugee status in 2015.
— In the four months he was working undercover, he found that many asylum applications from people claiming to be from Syria were accepted without even an interview. Applicants just had to say they were from Syria and sign a form.
— Many migrants use a variety of tactics to avoid having there fingerprints being taken, such as using grease, acid, or superglue on their fingers, while other grind their fingertips until smooth. He said “Some want to avoid the fact that [their data] is recognized on the crime register. Or that it is noted that they have already been registered in another country.”
— He mentions a case where a man who appeared to be 65 said he was 30.
— He recalls thinking “Am I being lied to by economic migrants, who do not qualify for asylum, but just hope for a better life in Germany? Or is an ISIS sympathiser sitting in front of me?”
— He concluded: “On all these issues I have no answers. All I know is that currently there are far too many people living in Germany, and we do not know where they really come from, what they really intend and why they are really here.”
— The article mentions that the migrant who recently pledged allegiance to the Islamic State before launching into an axe attack on a German train was thought to have been a Pakistani who claimed he was an Afghan in order to receive asylum in Germany.
