Scamming - Fraud
The Canadian Visas and Immigration advice website www.ovcanada.com is not legitimate. The website looks authentic, but on the registration page, the security seal "TRUST ME, verified site" is a fake. This fake security seal was created to trick users of the website into believing the website has been verified by an authentic security website such as Geo-Trust.
This fake security seal is not clickable and was not generated by an authentic security website. This fake seal was generated by the same website using the internet programming JavaScript.
A website security seal should allow a website user to click on it, so that the user can be taken to a website to verify it. But this fake seal does not, and there is no way to determine who the owner of it is.
The website www.ovcanada.com should not be trusted and do not submit your personal or financial information on this bogus Canadian visas and immigration advice website.

Hi,I'm one of the victim of OVCanada, I found this website on my FB. After 1 weeks of my registration I received a call from Josef Samson Immigration Agent, He said I haven't finished the registration. After a long conversation he than ask for a payment of $249 euro fee for my submission, in short I deed make that payment after I make that payment he pass me to the immigration department lady Ms Grace(Gem Collin) and than she repeat the same question what Josef ask me, after our conversation she ask me to pay another $199 euro for my Language test programmed. I paid it so that my application will be process fast. After a few days when I go to the Canadian Consult for verification they till me I am scam...A lesson for this, do a research on the website before you make any commitment or better do your application straight to the embassy closer to you.I know I will not be able to collect my lost hope other will not do the same mistake I made.God Bless all...

She repeated the same thing and when I refused to make any sort of payment she just hang up on me... hahahah... tq god I found out they are scammers.
Hi, ovcanada is a scam. I am in the Bahamas talking to them on the phone and this is the new number 1289-768-0076, so if you guys see this number calling dont answer, they just want money, so dont send them none.
They called me today after applying online. Asked me for $600 US for processing. Nope don't have that money. Then I found this site. Thanks.
Hello guys, how can I get back my money? They took from me 500 euros, can you help me?

Hello, I am Max. I live in Moscow, Russia. I started to registrate on website www.ovcanada.com. I haven't finished the registration because they requested money. Next day I had a call from somebody representing this website. It was a Moscow phone number 74956494884. After several questions about me and my family they insisted on giving them my credit card number to check. Of course I didn't do that. I hope this information will help others. Thank you for your job.
Wow, I was really excited about this because I was almost done...I would be the victim thanks for your help.
I received a call this morning from unknown number, but I did not answer and after that evening, I called them back and they told me that they are an internation corporation, which help people to apply and get accepted for Canadian Visas. They told me that they found my telephone No. from their website Ovcanada .Yes, I registered my information on their website before, but I did not pay and they asked me to start the process, but I told them that I am not ready now. So they told me when I am ready I should call them. I didn't because I searched and found that they are a scum website. This is their number : 19179798908
It is a fake website. Don't trust them. They are liar. Personally I lost 600 euros with them.
