'SCAM' HITS HOME FOR VICTIMS By GEORGETT ROBERTS and CYNTHIA R. FAGEN April 27, 2003 -- Dozens of mostly working-class immigrants who say they were swindled in an investment scam marched outside the Brooklyn home of the company's founders yesterday and demanded their money back. "These people have no conscience," said Jean Nelson, 67, a hotel housekeeper, who said she lost her life savings of $12,700 in an alleged scam run by Alfred Mills and Ann Alvarez, who operate A&A Global Resources. Investors said they grew suspicious after they failed to see any return on their investments and did not even receive the quarterly statements they were promised. "I feel angry and worried," said a woman who invested $14,000 for her daughter's college tuition. "Now I don't know where to turn." She asked that her name not be used because, "I am so embarrassed." The rally in front of the house at 78 Hemlock Ave. in the Highland Park section of Brooklyn was complete with chants and placards, including one that read, "Ann and Al make Saddam look like a saint."
