Canadian government has issued a fraud alert on Monday and rejected rumours circulating online of Canadian Visa lottery for Pakistan.
Canadian High Commission to Pakistan on its official Twitter account stated “Fraud alert: Rumours circulating online of Canadian visa lottery for Pakistanis and others are false,”
Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) also issued a warning on its official website against fake Canadian visa lottery schemes.
“Guaranteed visas and jobs in Canada, work permits, free scholarships,” such have been offers from fraudulent consultants on their websites in order to tempt innocent people.
“You do not need to hire an immigration representative to apply for a visa or for Canadian citizenship,” read a notice issued on official website.
“Immigration representatives do not have special connections with Canadian government officials and cannot guarantee you a visa.”
“Beware of internet scams and false websites,” it advised.
