Warning on Diversity Visa Fraud
Diversity Visa Program: There have been
instances of fraudulent websites posting as official U.S. Government
sites. Some companies posting as the U.S. Government have sought money
in order to "complete" lottery entry forms. To learn more, please see
the Federal Trade Commission Warning. Applicants selected in the
Diversity Visa random drawing are notified by the Department of State,
Kentucky Consular Center, and provided instructions on how to proceed to
the next step in the process. No other organization or company is
authorized by the Department of State to notify Diversity Visa lottery
applicants of their winning entry.
