Visa scams on the rise, says Shanghai Exit-Entry Bureau

Shanghai's Exit-Entry Administration Bureau is warning foreigners to watch out for fraudulent visa agents after several people have been scammed... some even losing their passports. It said that over 50% of the 100 foreigners it put under detention in 2009 had overstayed after failing to get their visa from agents. The Shanghai Exit-Entry Administration Bureau suggests you go through them if you want to extend your visa, and to call 2895-1900 for more information. We suggest you use a little Magic.
