Forex Trading Scams

This is when scammers set up websites and offices that make it seem as if they are organizations that help people with getting Visa’s from the payments that they receive is how they receive income. They do not help you get a visa and making money as well as identity theft is their main motive.

How does this scam work?

Scammers set up structures, offices, websites as well as social media accounts that bring out the picture that they can get Visa’s for people who want to go to specific countries that they pick as their cover up. These are usually countries that attract people such as the United Kingdom United States of America, Australia, and the likes. They set up these structures with their target markets being underdeveloped countries which have many people who will be seeking better pastures outside boundaries. They seem legit and they are usually well-spoken as well as design their structures in a way that makes it look legitimate, i.e., what they claim they do. The reason behind setting up these structures is either to steal your identity (Identity theft) when you provide information to them, or it is to gain financially when they ask you to make payments which facilitate processing of your visa. Either way, you are scammed, and this is prevalent in many countries.
