The United States Mission to Nigeria has warned Nigerians
against a fraudulent visa report being circulated on social media.
The fraudulent visa press release had claimed that the US
was issuing a new type of work visa to Nigerians.
But the US Mission on Friday in a visa fraud alert urged
Nigerians to disregard information stating that a new work visa has been
created.
The statement read, “The U.S. Mission to Nigeria is drawing
the general public’s attention to a fake “press release” claiming to offer a
new type of work visa to Nigerians.
“Scammers and
fraudsters circulate this phoney information that the new work visa applies to
Nigerian citizens aged 40-55.
The U.S. Embassy in Abuja and Consulate in Lagos is warning
Nigerians not to fall victims to the scam. It is the same old scam, but in
fresh packaging – don’t become a victim!
“If you have questions about whether visa information is
legitimate, please refer only to official sources: travel.state.gov,
ng.usembassy.gov/visas, and www.ustraveldocs.com/ng.”
