I belived him and payed the amount.Since from that day,he not lifting any calls..I tired of calling him...He was so nice until he grabbed the money..After that he is not at all responding.

he has already processed your visa and its approved and ready to print. and he has taken money for that. so what is the problem here ? as mentioned "visit nearest service center" and take a print out of your Visa. Got get panic for nothing :).

That means ..your visa exists !! The crook has indeed processed your visa ...Contact MOI through email or phone & ask where should you pay visa fees ..

I am really sorry to hear that you have been crooked, well put as a bad experience or a learning curve.

At this point you might have been given a name or a bank details for the money transfer, eventually the perpetrator should have been given his or her real name that could be a lead for you to trace him up.

I don't think going to the police is a good idea. Soliciting his services for the business visa is possibly illegal too, since only companies can issue a business visa. Lesson is to never release any money in Qatar or elsewhere, until the service has been effected in full. And just curious, how much did he charge you for the visa? Just so you know, a company pays 200 rials, that's it, so anything over and above is his profit. Try calling from some other number. Unless he answers your call, I'm afraid your money might be gone.

How is that possible ??

MOI visa page always shows the applicant passport no. + name.. didn't you checked your name & unique passport no. before making payment to scammer ?
