Visa Scam Exposed: 15-Day Appointment Promise

A scam ring promising guaranteed visa appointments within 15 days has been exposed through WhatsApp conversations. These conversations revealed that bot accounts were used to guarantee visa appointments within this timeframe. The suspects transferred 17,000 liras to a company account for visa procedures and 500,000 liras to a personal account with the description 'visa fee'. It was discovered that an agency system was set up using the company's phone line, and multiple transactions were made through this system. The company claimed to have software that could secure a visa appointment within 15 days, with a 100% guarantee in case of rejection. Applicants were asked to provide images of their passport fronts, which were then recorded in the 'Visa Appointment Management System'. This system contained 201 application records. In a conversation with another customer, it was found that despite the 15-day guarantee, no appointment was provided even after approximately 2.5 months. It was also found that a large portion of the payments were made to the suspect's personal account rather than the company account.
