DV 2015 Selectees from Ghana

Scammed? How?
Click to expand...


This agent entered a free to enter lottery for you. Well with the same surname at least. Different forenames and different date of birth.

Then he approached you and told you that you had won and for the low price of only 2000 cedis he would supply you with the winning details (as you confirmed in this post - http://forums.immigration.com/threads/dv-2015-selectees-from-ghana.320670/page-53#post-2366779)

Are you seriously telling me that you don't think you were scammed?

Scratch - so you don't know how he got your photo (in other words the photo is probably not you)
Your name is incorrect.
Your Date of birth is incorrect.

I know you think God has a plan about all this - but maybe the plan is that you realize that you are too easy to scam.

On the "you have been selected" letter - is the address correct?
 
@scratch now I'm beginning you have serious doubts about this whole charade you're putting up here. You're soo inconsistent. If the moderators and even laymen like us are able to figure out you told several lies here why can't a trained CO figure it out and deny you?? I hope you get the visa tho but honestly your chances are very slim with this level of inconsistency.
 
You never entered a lottery (I purposed) yet someone contacted you on a social network that you've won and you also bought that garbage?? Those guys are just like the agent in Bangladesh. He registers thousands of people at random with stolen passport pictures from the internet, social media, phonebook then he calls the numbers who win and tell them to pay exorbitant fees. If this is not scam then what it is???

entry and passport names the same, right? You will be fine


Agree with mom. The names are right even if they are not exactly in the right boxes. You'll be fine.

it shouldnt...relax...once that name is on your birth cert and in your passport you should be safe. i had a similar issue where my middle name was never used in any school document but was on my birth cert and passport. in submitting an entry for the DV, I introduced the middle name and did an affidavit to cover me.
it did not raise any eye brows and that is not why i was put on AP. the AP was for a different thing. i had lived outside Ghana for over a year and i needed to present a police report from that country where i stayed. the 2.5months of being on AP was to check my police records with that country's police and also with the US embassy there.
Dont be deceived...they check everything...they are really serious...
that way when they grant you the visa they wil have no regrets. i guess so.

sincerely, i do not know what to say. masa, it would have been better you never came out with your truth because I do not think anyone here can trust anything else you say.

Am I been forloned here?[/QUOTE

If you feel forlorned then so be it. As forum mates it is our duty to hope for a 100% success. No one told you to come and cook up lies in here. I don't think anyone is being harsh on you, is the reality you have to face. But like I said early on, I still wish you well. Hope a miracle happens and you get the visa

no bro. do you think you have enough documents to back you claim? what i think is this and i may be wrong, the CO is interested to see your passport, High school cert and any other documents which has your names written on them which conforms with the names on EDV and DS-260.

@Britsimon the name used for dv entry was EMMANUEL ADJEI FRIMPONG by my good friend and with my correct DOB. the name on my passport is EMMANUEL FRIMPONG ADJEI so when filling the DS- 260 the right position as on the passport was used. Will the surname and middle name interchange in the initial entry cause problems during the interview? note: I ask him to apply for me since I was hospitalised by then

Britsimon said:
The case will have been red flagged because the switching of the name is a common (but not very smart) fraud technique. So, you can expect some questioning about that and they will have searched the other combinations of your name, or might put you on AP while they do that.

do you think i need an affidavit for this reason?
 
scratch said:
I have that that conforms to DS260 and not EDV. Wanna swear affidavit to back it. Some people are targeting me to much just bcos they have theirs. Please we are all Ghanaians and should be each others keeper, ok? U can't predict the future. U can't

just take it cool but as i said, saying the truth now makes me or some of us wonder why this long time. anyway ask yourself what you wanna do now. it is your decision that matters
 
scratch said:
I had reason but found out it wasn't tangible. I apologize for that. Please, ok? I throw it at you. Just imagine you being in my shoes. What steps would have taken? Just imagine it's you. Two heads are better than one.

"Some people are targeting me too much just bcos they have theirs" Are you serious?? targeting you ?? For what??? If I was that selfish I don't think I will even be commenting on this forum anymore since "I have mine" Your utterances sums you up. Lies Lies Lies and eventually the blame game. But guess what ? even though I still wish you get your visa from the bottom of my heart, I'm done talking/commenting about your case trust me. Goodluck bro

Do you have the entry confirmation number? Were you able to open your account to fill and submit DS 260 form? Or they told you that they had submitted DS 260 for you? What informations do you have at hand?

Hi forum members. Sorry I lied to u people. Never paid any money to anyone. Was facebukn when a guy messaged me I have won. I knew it wasn't true but he insisted. He is from the USA. He gave me a number to call and get my passport ready. I went to the guy. He was hiding the confirmation number from me when entering. He entered and voilà there it was. That part wasn't a scam cause I know the DoS website. There was a negotiation. I won't pay anything till am granted the visa. The amount was 13000 cedis. I agreed. I processed my passport and started DS 260. Now waiting for 2nl. One part was that I will foot the bill for the processing or they will and add 1000 usd to the amount. I took the first option but now I will call and tell them I choose the second option. If he says no I will stop. But am optimistic that I will get visa this year. I don't know how. God knows best. Thank you.
