The Goa CM recently warning people looking out for jobs in the Gulf and other regions to be wary about fake agents and agencies, as there have been cases reported where aspirants for Gulf jobs have been cheated.
These fraud agencies lure prospective customers, take them to the Gulf and leave them in dire straits. It also becomes difficult for those who go to the Gulf countries to come back to India.
The police should take 'stringent and punitive' action against such overseas recruitment firms cheating people. The public should also be wary of such overseas recruitment agencies that are eyeing to dupe people by promising jobs abroad.
The public should contact the offices of Protector of Emigrants (PoE) at Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), before accepting offers of overseas employment from agencies.
