Scam warning

5 warning signs of a non-transparent programme

If you notice any of the signs below – even if the person contacting you claims to be KPV staff – stop and verify through official channels.

SIGN 01Taking money before a contract is signed

Demanding a deposit or a fee to “hold a place” before there is a contract, a receipt and a clear cost schedule.

SIGN 02Guaranteeing a visa or high income

No organisation can guarantee a visa – the decision rests with the competent authorities of the host country.

SIGN 03Unable to show a licence

Unable to name the licensed organisation, the licence number or the programme’s documents.

SIGN 04Contact through unofficial channels

Personal social media accounts, unfamiliar phone numbers, requests to transfer money to a personal account.

SIGN 05Pressure to decide quickly

“Today only”, “places running out” – no time given to read the contract or consult your family.

FAQ

Questions about verification & costs

All questions
01How are programme costs published?

Each programme has its own cost table on its details page: item name, amount, when it is payable and whether it is refundable. KPV does not collect any payment outside the published table; every payment is covered by a contract and a receipt.
