Thank you so so much for saving those poor animals.... I can't imagine how people can be so cruel to put unharmed little lives into that horrible bags and boxes and transfer to another country. I'm so grateful for what border officers have done!!!! Thank you millions❤❤❤

I used to manage a small pet store owned by a veterinarian: we were always very careful about any imported reptiles/amphibians, and would only buy domestically bred species, which are usually more expensive. At the time it was common knowledge in that type of business that of 100 illegally imported animals for resale, 90 will die in transit. It's a hideous situation.
How could that guy Mark think they would believe he was born in, and went to school in Australia with such poor command of English and he doesn't remember his high school? Scammer.
That Mark guy was NOT born in Australia, listen to him speak 🗣 also, who forgets the name of their High School?? I hated High School, but I never forgot it’s name😂
On the one hand, I wish he had gotten away with it unless he was working for the UFWD or something, but on the other hand, how is the penalty for obtaining a passport fraudulently just deportation and a three-year exclusion? If his English were better and he had a little more charisma, I think he could have talked his way out of it, though
I could produce a much better Aussie accent myself but I would never, ever fantasize of convincing anybody that I am Australian. Not the brightest bulb in the room.
you know , smuggling drugs , fake documents , screaming passengers , i understand. But to hurt an animal by confine them and starve them in the process , that act I don't forgive .
That's exactly what I was thinking while watching. Dude was absolutely terrified and shame on these officers for not being properly trained. Hope Jeff is doing well
I am Autistic and people constantly perceive me as strange because I am not a neurotypical and march the beat of my own drum (I play several instruments so that is pun-intended)
They do have training that’s why they stopped him. It’s nothing personal against him. They deal with people that act the same but not because of autism. They try to swallow drugs and they act very similar they are just doing their jobs. If you actually watch this show you’ll see a ton of people acting like Jeff but then they get worse and worse. Jeff didn’t get worse but they have to do there jobs that they are trained to do. Also when he starts being stand offish it’s also something criminals do. Not blaming Jeff at all. It super sucks for him but he has the mannerisms of criminals they deal with daily. If they let everyone acting like Jeff through because of potential autism they wouldnt catch many criminals. You should have more understanding. You have no idea what they are trained for or what the job they have to do is like. You just want to choose your outrage instead of looking at the bigger picture.
The poor trafficked lizards!! So cruel. I also wasn’t a huge fan of the staff at the zoo chatting away by the car about the animals when they got them rather than rushing to get them out of those inhumane bags. Then saying they’re putting them in another bag in quarantine. Soooo sad😢
Mark could said something like he doesn’t raised in Australia, living in overseas for many years 😂 but officers would definitely checked all the documents in system to verify his identity , you can’t escape it 😅
He would have had a tough time since they didn't have a record of him ever having an Australian passport before the one he was using. And I get how he could have done it with a single fraudulent birth certificate copy. Before 1986, Australia had jus soli birthright citizenship, so just being born in Australia was sufficient. Just with a birth certificate he could have established his entire identity, although anyone whose primary language was English would have found his story nearly impossible given that English wasn't exactly fluent and he sounded like someone who learned English in a Chinese-speaking country.
@@neale3871 Think about the guy just spend our tax money for 5 months. I reckon should send him back to where him depart straight away and permanent suspended to Aus.
Did "Mark" really think that with that thick foreign accent of his that customs would believe for one microsecond that he was a native-born Australian? 😂
What was the chinese guy thinking? you can't claim that you were educated in australia (and born) and sound like that. That would be the first red flag that almost anyone can pick out.
I've heard people who learned English in China and who never left the country whose English was better. But even then they often would have the typical plural form and she/he confusion.
Oddball Jeff in the green top looks like he could be an older brother to the actor Vince Vaughn. As Vaughn his movements and facial expressions favor Jeff. I'm so glad those animals were rescued.
Very unsympathetic, bobble gum chewing, customs officer. Once I traveled for 2 days, crammed conditions in 6 Aeroplanes, I could barely keep my balance and feet were locking up due to a lack of movement. "What did I eat on the airplanes?" Something. Was it over the Atlantic, or was it from Bruxelles to Copenhagen? It might have been. I was tired! Would I like to sit down? No, I wanted to do the opposite - move about. Sitting too much was the problem.
Mark is obviously not Australian born... I mean, it's the most obvious thing ever. The instant he said he doesn't know his high school's name (and when he actually just started talking) was a RED FLAG moment.
Ever saw The Killing Fields? It was apparently from a real-life plan where they altered a British passport (from a friend who had a spare) and the very Cambodian Dith Pran was practicing saying his new name (in his thick accent) in order to get out of Cambodia. Now that was wild. That was back when photos were glued to the photo page and they were hoping that they might not notice there was no embossing. But apparently the photo they used faded and he was refused. However, his purported birthdate was when Australia still had jus soli (right of the soil) citizenship, so a forged birth certificate alone might have been adequate to establish an identity as an Australian citizen.
Hao got away very lightly, should have spent atleast a few years in Australian prison and then should have been deported to China with a permanent ban on entering Australia.
20 years ago it wasn't so well known among the general population... people would just think, "Oh he's strange." Lot more awareness of it now, thankfully.
It would be so easy to prove where you're from. Jobs, teachers' names, street names, school events. If you were innocent, you would argue until you changed the custom officer's mind.
Imagine getting pissy with someone and knowing they are going on vacay and calling customs or the airport and lying and saying they are a drug smuggler
It made me sick to see those poor animals. The ones who do it, should be treated as beasts and jailed for life. We live in semi rural NSW, to our trees comes all types of birds and of course other animals, so nice to see them. Like a music hall, magpies, cockatoo, kookaburras. eaglesand others.....
A language isn't the same thing as a country, though. They might only speak Chinese (or are more fluent and comfortable answering questions in it), but live in Australia. I assume the card says $10,000AUD. Again, best bet is to declare it, even if you're not sure. If you're carrying a large sum of cash (that guy had $7,000USD), he should have declared.
How would they normally do that. They don't issue visas and these days there may even be electronic travel authority visas granted where there's no interview. I suppose it might be possible to have some sort of preclearance. I know that the United States does that at airports in Canada and Ireland. It even allows for some international flights to go to airports that don't have customs.
He has a fraud passport and other docs obtained through fraud. Was isn't ehe being criminally charged and not just refused. Who/how was the passport issued
He was criminally charged and convicted. It says he got a suspended sentence. They deported him rather than make him serve a jail sentence. It seems pretty simple. He obtained a fake birth certificate, or possibly used a real stolen birth certificate, although that seems less likely if they couldn't find another Mark Lau with the same date of birth. With a birthdate of 1979, that would have been when Australia had jus soli citizenship without regard to parental status. So he could have been able to use that to establish identity including his Medicare card and passport.
Sure. I've met several Australians of Chinese ancestry who were born and raised in Australia. Even if their parents spoke Mandarin or Cantonese with them at home, they always sounded Australian. That guy didn't even have a hint of an Aussie accent.
To be honest I would not have thought about the money having to be in Australian rates not American... especially if it doesn't specify that on the card. That's not as good of a gotcha question as you think. The American embassy can debunk that pretty easily. They'll tell you without specification... we just don't think that way. And a lot of people ARE dumb enough to still carry large amounts of cash overseas. Maybe another country that would be a valid gotcha question but not for Americans. They don't teach us this stuff. It's why I think you should have to pass an intelligence test to leave the U.S. Lol
Every country has laws. These officers work for the government in the service of upholding their laws. They have to be strict. Strictly adhering to the letter of the law as they have been hired and trained to do. These folks seem to have a lot of experience and have been witness to many types of offenders.
It’s wild how some of you treat animals better than humans. 1000 years for trafficking an ANIMAL? & I bet you’d try to excuse a child molester or a racist.

I've heard of people who were born in a country, then went back to the place of origin of the parents, and then back to where they were born. Bruce Lee would be a prime example. The actor James Hong was born in the United States, went to Hong Kong, and came back to the United States for high school. But even today he speaks English with a noticeable Cantonese accent. But someone claiming to have been born and raised in Australia whose English is that poor? Does not compute. His accent speaking English didn't even remotely sound Australian. It sounded exactly like someone who took English lessons in China and who still has issues with grammar, plural, he/she, etc.

I Agree That The 3 Year Exclusion Is To Short And Needs To Be Increased Or Even Doubled.
For some of these people it needs to be a PERMANENT BAN!!!
It shouldn't be any exclusion time, it should be forever.
I wonder how those Animal Smugglers would like being stuffed in a bag, packed in a box a get shipped to Japan, too bad that their Punishments cannot be like their Crimes, stuffed in a box, tumbled about for a few days but in their case the boxes should then be forgotten, now that would be Justice.
They'll get back Karma somehow or other, today repercussions are intense!
