I Need An Urgent Help To Identify Canadian Visa Scam Pls! by Gerarduq(m): 2:20pm On Jun 18, 2021
I received a call yesterday, Thursday, from a Canadian embassy representative interinterviewing me. The representative asked me questions about my application, language skills, work experience, and other immigration questions where she scored me high. Now, the problem is this, the Canadian embassy representative interviewed me via phone and asked me to submit my Atm card details. She also said she will debit my atm card of $850,000 so I'll use it for work education (fee for processing my application with my potential employers included). Can Canadian embassy representatives ask one to submit his or her atm details via phone call and ask that person to pay immediately? How can I contact Canadian government about verifying the number that called me? I didn't pay because I don't have money and I should pay today!

Thank you guys. I don't know what this world is turning into seriously. cry

I'm processing this via my agent who was my coursemate (Political Science) in unn, and he's quite trustworthy. But my family members are skeptical about everything. Hope to hear from you all, thanks.

This is a scam and the call is not from Canadian embassy or representative

What is the number that called you?

The call you receive is for Canadian Visa assessment to see the category of visa you might qualify for. You must have filled one of those assessment form from those "Canadian immigrant consultant websites". Those immigration consultant websites are shady and outright scam. The people behind it don't even live in Canada. They have similar websites for US, UK and Australia too.

Those assessments, although not technically fake, do not help your visa process.
And you can take an assessment online for free by going to www.cic.gc.ca

I'd recommend you change your card details. Because they will charge that card or keep trying to charge your card for several months.

Bless you so much boss. Is it possible that the agent who gave me that link to fill could also be a scammer?

They will never ask you for this kind of information over the phone. It's a scam.

No it isn't. That money is gone. What you paid for is assessment. You paid money for them to tell you IF you should apply for a visa or not.

It's like paying money for someone to tell you if the food you want to eat is good or not.

Canadianvisaexpert.com is a scam website. Their address is a virtual address they paid for online to receive mails. Their phone number isn't genuine. They're not even based in Canada

They also operate other websites like usafis.org which gives fake US visa and greencard promises, immigrationpro.au (not sure) which is the fake Australian immigrant ion website. They also have another for I'm that I don't remember right now.

Stay away from such websitea, they're only after your money and card details. You're not paying for a visa service, you're paying those huge amount for visa assessment.

If you need genuine info, go to the correct government website of the country you have in mind regarding visa and immigration process.
