UK Visa Scam Fight Intensifies: Punjab, Haryana Targeted

The British High Commission is expanding its anti-visa fraud campaign, “Visa Fraud Ton Bacho,” to Punjab and Haryana, effective immediately. This crucial initiative aims to safeguard residents from escalating visa scams.

A new, user-friendly WhatsApp chatbot, available in Punjabi, has been launched. Access is simple via a readily available QR code.

The chatbot offers clear, concise guidance on the UK visa application process. This aims to prevent individuals from falling prey to fraudulent agents.

The campaign’s expansion reflects growing concerns about visa fraud targeting Punjab and Haryana. The High Commission hopes to drastically reduce the number of victims.

This initiative holds significant importance for aspiring migrants from these states. Protecting their hard-earned savings and ensuring safe, legal travel to the UK is paramount.
