The Fake Visa Agent scam targets individuals seeking visas, residence permits, work permits, or embassy appointments in Belarus.

HOW DO SCAMMERS OPERATE IN BELARUS? These scammers may contact potential victims through social media, email, or even in person, promising a fast track to the visa process. They often create a sense of urgency, suggesting that limited slots or deadlines are approaching.

The targeted groups include visa applicants, students looking to study in Belarus, workers seeking employment, and families wishing to reunite.
