Hello All,

Anyone that is selling you a visa to come to Kuwait, for a job, is most likely 9/10 times TRICKING YOU.

Have a read here, a story of one young man brought from Ghana to Kuwait.

Gist of the story is; he was a teacher working in Ghana, was promised to be a security guard earning USD 1,000 per month, he came to Kuwait to find that he was no security guard, but a shepherd, in the middle of no where, paid a measly USD 350.

This is not an isolated incident; there are plenty of similar stories where people came to Kuwait under false pretenses only to find themselves locked away.

Please, be careful when accepting offers such as those that ask you to pay them money to get you a job in Kuwait.

PS the source is very reliable and well reputed in Kuwait.

Can you share with us your experience?

If everything you're promised to get and do before you paid the money and moved to Kuwait was in fact what you ended up doing or was it a scam as well?

Sharing your story would help people who are negotiating with agents back at their home country now get a clear understanding of what they're getting into .
