“ 如果你付了钱给这伙人，那你绝对是上当了。这些诈骗团体给你的护照，上面盖的签证或是永久居民印章是无效的，也没有任何法律效力。 ”

” 新西兰移民局才是国内发放签证和永久居民许可唯一的合法机构。 “

议员 Sio 先生收到举报说，昨晚在曼鲁瑞瓦毛利会堂的一次有上百人参加的太平洋岛民集会上，有人向一个团体支付了 500 多纽币，以换取对方颁发的签证和永久居民签。与会者多数是来自奥克兰及其他地区的萨摩亚和汤加人。

” 结果，他们买到的是护照上的假签证和假的永久居民签。 “Su’a William Sio 说。

“ 这些恶棍敲诈那些走投无路的人 --- 真是卑鄙无耻。 ”

曼格里的这位议员表示，他希望有听说过这类集会，或者有同这些诈骗犯进行过交易的人与他的选举办公室取得联系。

Warning to beware of passport scam

Mangere MP Su’a William Sio is warning people to beware of passport scammers in New Zealand charging people more than 0 for fake visas.

“If anyone has paid money over to this rogue group, you have been fooled. It’s a complete and utter sham. Any visa or residency stamps in your passport from this group are worthless and have no legal status whatsoever.

“The New Zealand Immigration Service is the only legitimate body in this country which can issue visas and permanent residency.

Mr Sio received reports of a meeting held last night at a Manurewa marae at which hundreds of Pacific people, mainly Samoans and Tongans, from Auckland and other regions, say they paid over 0 to a group claiming to have the authority to issue visas and permanent residency.

“In return, they received a fake visa or permanent residency stamp on their passport,” says Su’a William Sio.

“ The actions of these rascals are despicable. Shame on them for preying on desperate people.

The Mangere MP says if anyone has heard of these meeting, or paid for the services of these scammers, he’d like them to contact his electorate office.
