How to Spot a Fake Degree Attestation from Saudi Embassy and Saudi Culture Service Provider

Almost thousands of Degree attestation from Saudi Embassy service provider is processed every year in the Pakistan alone. As the world becomes more and more global, citizens are doing business, retiring, relocating, and adopting children in foreign countries. And doing so usually requires getting relevant documents apostilled.

Unfortunately, where there is money involved, thieves and con-artists will arise to the occasion. And this has happened with the degree attestation from Saudi Embassy services which are mostly advertised online.

Usually, a fake apostille service will con you one of two ways:

They will simply take your money and important documents (which you mail to them) and never deliver on their promise.

They will return your documents with counterfeit apostille seals and you won't be the wiser until you try to pass those documents onto a foreign government or agency.

Protect yourself by making sure the company is operating within the Pakistan. There is no purpose in sending your important documents (sometimes costly and difficult to obtain themselves) overseas only for that company to turn around send them to an apostille office back in the Pakistan anyway.

Yes, there can be legitimate companies operating overseas, but if you happen to choose a fake one, you won't have much of a recourse if they are out of the Pakistan.

How long has the Degree attestation from Saudi Culture service been in business? Look at the length of time their website has been up, who it's registered to, and if there are any online (unbiased) referrals from people who have used them. Pakistani expat chat groups are helpful for this since most of their members have gone through the same process getting apostilles.

Is the site a copy of another legitimate site? Look at the spelling of the URL. Is it close in wording of another popular site? Sometime thieves will try and look just like a legitimate site but direct payments to a different address. (If the apostille service is doing business in the Pakistan, contact their local Better Business Bureau and see if there are any complaints.)

Lastly, if the apostille service will only take wire transfers, that is definitely a strong clue it might be fraudulent.

Be aware and vigilant and you shouldn't have any problems choosing a legitimate apostille service. And if you want to be 100 percent safe, consider handling your documents yourself. That way you're absolutely certain they make it to the correct government office and receive legitimate apostilles.

If you're unsure how to do this, I've written a step-by-step guide to obtaining your apostilles yourself, fast, securely and for hundreds less than any legitimate service will offer.
