I payed 40 euros to submit my participation to green card lottery - FIRST ERROR, dont do that!

I've been called on the phone to pay 629 dollars more, because with my high level profile I am a VIP - highly eligible for green card lottery. After that payment, USAFIS would send me some products, like Natively V.I.P immigration package.

This has nothing to do with USCIS.ORG

However I find something filth in the fact that USAFIS publishes his advertisements in some big portals like msn.com and no one tell us the truth: they cannot give you no green card. And youll find nothing about USAFIS in USCIS. This smells like robbery.

i thank you for your comment. it is useful in helping me determine the authenticity of this USAFIS organisation. i was recenty told i won the green card lottery and to fill out forms and post to kentucky consular center. the USAFIS organisation also continues to email me to say i have won and to contact lawyers DC Law Offices in New York city to pay them to help me through the green card lottery process. i really thought i was a winner, so bummed. Why is there no contact number for KCC to ask someone if the DV lottery account no. given by USAFIS is legitimate or not? concerned from Australia.

USA Green Card Lottery System is a program that makes 50000 immigrant visas available through a lottery. So, no one can guarantee of getting a green card. One can apply for Green Card (Diversity Lottery Program) for free. But when it comes to applying for the Green Card Lottery Program it is very important that application is filled correctly. There has been some shocking news that out of ten million application forms that have been handed in that over 3 million of the application forms were disqualified. Getting help to assist you is a great way to reduce stress for the applicant and the family of the applicant. USAFIS is one such organization which has helped hundreds and thousands of applicants in making successful submission of DV lottery application form.
No, we do not guarantee green card for you, but we certainly guarantee that our services will help you qualify for the Diversity Visa Lottery Program. We charge for our service.

To saunderscolin1:

A bit pricey service. So, if you are that well informed, please explain us how do you use that 629 dollars, to do what service exactly?
You're also ignoring the complaint about all the fake informations you give thru your ads on the web.

It clearly states on their website "The Usafis Organization provides an easy and convenient registration service for the annual Green Card Lottery program. We will ***ensure your application is registered in time and ***without errors. Each application is checked and you will be contacted if corrections or additional submissions are required in order for your application to be valid. Each year approximately 25% of all entries are disqualified, many for formal reasons".

I paid a lot of money for this service. My application for the green card was filled out incorrectly with the wrong birthdate which means I will be disqualified. They state that they will register my application without errors and they didnt.

I also paid extra money for a VIP membership. I was meant to recieve 9 language cd's which I havent. So what have I actually paid $US593.00 for?
They are meant to provide a service to assist me and they havent. I called to get a refund on my payment made but was denied any refunds. I was questioned why it took me so long to phone in regards to not recieving the discs...that is irrelevant. Everything I have paid for I have not recieved a single thing for...not even a correct entry into the lottery.

I was told I was not allowed a refund because my entry has already gone through. Even though I have been disqualified because they didnt fill it out properly. I will be taking this further so if anyone is in a similar situation please email me. This is a total sham and they need to be stopped.

Hi all out there - I can also confirm that USAFIS is a scam company, legally using MSN and other wedsites. VISA and Mastercard also approve of these scammers - Should these "reputable" companies allow the unsuspecting public to be ripped off. Why does the US government allow these faudsters to operate in and from their counrty in the first place?

I also agree to the fact the USAFIS is a scam company. Why is it that they can process payments immediately and cannot cancel that same payment at the request of the client? What system dothey use that cannot reverse an entry made? Can someone explain this please?

They claim to be a reputable compay and yet all over the world people are complaining of being robbed of their money. I intend to take this matter with the FBI as I have also been victim of USAFIS this morning. I have taken up with the local police my credit card company and the US Conular in my country. This has to b stopped immediately

I am another victim if these people. I put my details into the website but never completed my application. The next morning they called me and mislead me into giving my credit card details. They implied they were the only way to enter the lottery, and never said that by simply visiting the website you therefore agree to all terms and conditions saying they will not refund you. I attempted to contact them within 2 hours of the phonecall and the telephone numbers do not work. I emailed and they have got back to me saying I cannot have a refund due to them beginning my application process, but then offered me more language software and help to gain immigration into australia instead, or to transfer my application to another person (everything except a refund of the money)
I have done some further research on this organization. They charge different amounts to different people, they mislead you on the phone by not stating clearly what their service is (or isn't). In my case they don't tell you to enter the lottery is free, and they charge for a service, they told me I was paying to enter the lottery, not for them to review my application.
I am also taking this to my credit card company, as I feel they are not legitamate. You only need to look at all the complaints against them.
