NIGERIANS BUYING EXPENSIVE CARIBBEAN CBI PASSPORTS, DENIED THE U.S. VISA THEIR INVESTMENT MIGRATION VENDOR PROMISED THEM, DEMAND A REFUND PLUS MONEY DAMAGES FOR THEIR PLIGHT

The word is out in Nigeria, amongst the wealthy individuals who forked out hefty fees to obtain a Citizenship by Investment (CBI) passport from vendors selling SAINT KITTS & NEVIS citizenships. When they go to a U.S. Consulate abroad to secure that American visa, which was promised to them by their passport sales consultancy, they find out SKN passport holders are now redlined, and they comes home empty handed. plus, those Nigerians who have already received U.S. visas in the past, now find that they have been revoked, or not renewed.

We are hearing that the Nigerian clients of many of Dubai's principal investment migration companies are demanding full refunds, as well as money damages. The reason for the money damages, say their attorneys, is because they purchased their passports at illegal discounts, and this incriminating detail surfaces when they applied (unsuccessfully) for a US visa; that's Passport Fraud, and now they are barred from forever getting an American visa in any other way. Whether the person who sold you that Caribbean passport at an illegal discount has exposed himself to American criminal charges is beyond the scope of this article, but I understand the U.S. is examining that issue.Lucious Gab-Umoden, LU GOLD CEO, may want to look into that.

So, consider this a warning to a Nigerian holders of Saint Kitts AND Saint Lucia CBI passports; do NOT go to an American Consulate, seeking to get a U.S. visa, as you may end up biting off more than you can chew. I many wonder how many Dubai-based consultancies, like HENG SHENG, close up, only to reopen virtually under another corporate name, with new bank accounts but the same client base.
