Estrella Andres Funeral Donation Scam Downey, California

Estrella Andres stole 4,000 dollars in funeral donations, claiming the amount as compensation for taking care of a terminal cancer patient.  At first Andres claimed her entitlement came to 10,000 dollars, then inflated the amount to 12,000.  However, there is no evidence to support that she ever provided care to the deceased.  Further allegations have been made regarding blackmail and extortion in her involvement with the family of the deceased.

There have been speculations whether Andres has learned these methods from inmates of the prison facility where she works as a Registered Nurse.  It has been further speculated whether Andres herself belongs behind bars.   Andres has been accused of social security fraud and numerous loan schemes carried out against friends and family, offering jewelry or other personal effects in place of loan payments.  Her debt has grown so overwhelming that her previous home was repossessed as the result of a lifestyle beyond her economic resources.

This has had considerable impact on her family.  Andres' two daughters Marissa and Sharon were raised in an abusive environment where they witnessed domestic violence and spousal abuse at the hands of their father Mario.   Following the apparent example set by their mother, the sisters have reportedly demanded financial support from numerous partners.  Andres may seem approachable at first, but should be considered untrustworthy and regarded with extreme caution.
