⚠ Scam Warning — Read Before You Apply
- Never pay any fee for a Greece work visa or “EU work permit” — a genuine employer sponsors it.
- Do not share passport copies or pay agents on WhatsApp/Telegram for a “guaranteed” job.
- Verify the employer on official Greek / EU portals (EURES) before paying anything.
- Real employers never ask for money via personal bank accounts or crypto.
- Confirm the signed work contract and permit in writing before travelling to Greece.
