You can imagine the joy and happiness on the face of my administrator one Monday morning when he told me good fortune has been bestowed on his family. Why are you so happy, i asked?
Massa, nobody could sleep in the family yesterday night, he told me. ‘Have you won the $100,000.00 jackpot MOBI game’, i asked again, more than that, my daughter has won a US lottery Visa, he proclaimed.
We shouted and screamed in the office, what is more better than obtaining a US Green Card on a silver plate. A whole opportunity would be created with this card, i was happy for my friend. After the euphoria had died down, i decided to probe further the nature of the US Visa Lottery his daughter had won.
Fake Websites
I asked my friend whether he could give me the website of the site that sent the information that her daughter had won, he couldn’t. I however insisted that i needed to verify that the information is coming from the US department of state. When the printed form however arrived, my looks changed. When my friend saw my looks, he asked “ is the US Visa lottery not authentic” these ‘419 people, the moment they told me to send the processing fee to someone in the UK, i smelled a rat.
There are 1001 websites out there claiming to be the official website for the US Department of State using intelligent ways to dupe innocent people of their hard earned cash.
The authentic website for the Diversity Visa Lottery is https://www.dvlottery.state.gov/application.aspx, www.dvlottery.state.gov. Any other website are specifically designed to dupe you. Unfortunately, when i googled US Diversity lottery, apart from the first two which are authentic, the rest were all fake.

Any site that would ask you for a processing fee to process your application is not authentic. Processing is free. If you win the Diversity Visa Lottery, then all payment must be made to the US embassy, if you are asked to send dollars through Western Union to a white lady in UK, then know that it is advanced 419. They will chop your dollar free.
Who Qualifies for the US Diversity Lottery Visa
A friend told me that the US Diversity lottery is a complete brain drain to a nation and I honestly agree with him. Without a Senior High School Certificate, one cannot even qualify for the lottery. If you are a degree holder, your chances of winning is very high. Nurses and teachers i learnt are in hot demand. If all these workers that the Government trains over the years leaves in the name of Visa lottery, what would happen to our health sector? Last week I learnt Tema General Hospital were returning pregnant women because doctors and nurses that were to attend to them were not available.
How to Apply
If you are single and just want to go and hassle in the US, don’t entangle yourself with wives and children. Go single and if things stabilizes, you can come back and pick others. But if you are a business man and you don’t intend to stay there for long, then it is advisable to go with your wife or marry and go with your wife. Your wife can stay over whilst you return to do your business. If you don’t have a wife over there, then you might loose your papers if you stay out of the US for more than six months.
