Gulf Job Scammer Arrested: Woman Charged with Defrauding Hopeful Migrants
Friday 29 November 2019, by
The one called Lhajja was brought before the Attorney General last Sunday for her alleged involvement in several fraud and scam cases. This woman is a dream breaker demanding up to 15,000 dirhams in exchange for a promise of a job contract in certain Gulf countries.
The accused had no difficulty convincing her victims to advance the sum of 3,000 dirhams as a deposit. They also had to give her their passport as well as a copy of their ID card and criminal record.
For the victims, the dream was beginning to take shape, especially since the woman had promised to undertake the visa application formalities.
But complaints began to pile up with the police, following the sudden disappearance of the accused, who no longer showed any sign of life, until her arrest.
Two days after her arrest in Azzemour, the suspect was brought before the Attorney General for her alleged involvement in several fraud and scam cases.
