EU GREEN CARD LOTTERY SCAM

We receive thousands of inquires about an EU Green Card Lottery every month. By this statement we want to confirm that there is NO EU Green Card Lottery. It does not exist and never will. Only the United States of America has a Green Card Lottery (officially called the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program). Any company or organization claiming that there is an EU Green Card Lottery where applicants can win a green card to the European Union is wrong.
Please do not contact us about any EU Green Card Lottery as no reply will be provided.
