The pageant bio for 2008 Mrs. Pakistan World beauty queen winner and former South Bay realtor Saman Hasnain describes her as a happily married mother with “almond shaped eyes, flawless skin and full beautiful lips.” But prosecutors are calling her and her husband, Jawad, something else: scam artists.Add: The Santa Clara County DA’s office has charged them with ripping off 17 people, which the Mercury News’ Tracey Kaplan says may be only a fraction of the 80 to 100 folks they are believed to have defrauded as part of a phony loan modification scheme. Says one alleged victim:
"She was really pretty. She wore a skirt suit, high heels, nylons -- like a real good-looking professional lady."Add: Prosecuting the couple may be tough, though. They’ve gone to Pakistan, which has no extradition treaty with the U. S.
