Dubai Police arrest gang selling fake pilgrimage visas

Dubai Police have arrested a group of scammers who were promoting fake Hajj and Umrah visa services on social media. The gang advertised low prices and easy payment options to attract victims. They pretended to be official agents and promised quick visa approvals. Once victims sent their money, the scammers blocked them and disappeared. This left many people without visas and in difficult situations. Authorities are warning residents to only use licensed agencies in the UAE for pilgrimage visas. Dubai Police emphasized the importance of being cautious, especially during busy pilgrimage times. They reminded everyone to be aware of online offers that seem too good to be true. The police also encouraged people to report any suspicious activities or ads through official channels, like the e-crime platform at www.ecrime.ae. This will help stop further scams.
