Subject · Forged invitation letters

The invitation from a company that never sent it.

Letters of invitation produced on real-looking letterhead — sometimes from companies that exist, sometimes from companies that don't. In both cases, the issuer never authorised the letter.

Direct finding

Invitation letters are routinely cloned because they are the visa-document Pakistani applicants most often see — and the document scammers find easiest to manufacture.

Mechanics of the scam
  1. 01.
    Broker takes a real Ukrainian company's letterhead from a public source.
  2. 02.
    Generates an 'invitation' for the applicant, with a fabricated signatory.
  3. 03.
    Charges the applicant USD 2,500–6,000 for the letter.
  4. 04.
    Consular officers cross-check by contacting the real company.
  5. 05.
    Real company denies issuing the letter — visa refused, applicant flagged.
