⚠️ Canada IRCC Issues Scam Advisory for International Students
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has warned international students about a rise in visa-related scams. Fraudsters are reportedly making false promises about study permits, admissions, work authorization, and even permanent residence in exchange for money.
📌 Key warnings:
• Offers without a valid acceptance letter are usually scams.
• No one can guarantee visas, jobs, or PR for a fee.
• Misrepresentation or false details can lead to visa refusal or a 5-year ban.
Always verify with your institution and official IRCC sources — protection starts with awareness.
