Immigration Fraud Alert: Chandigarh Case Highlights Rising Risks

Hence, the recent case from Chandigarh has again popularized the dangers of fraudulent immigration practices. A man was defrauded of ₹32.37 lakh by an unregistered firm that assured him of a job abroad. The frauds came to light when the victim realized that no genuine process had been initiated on his behalf.
