Fraudulent Umrah campaigns are not uncommon in the region, and many people have been scammed by unscrupulous individuals who promise cheap Umrah packages.

In light of this incident, the public is urged to be cautious and vigilant when dealing with individuals or groups promoting Umrah packages, especially if they are not affiliated with recognized travel agencies or authorized companies. It is advisable to verify the authenticity of such campaigns and to ensure that all necessary documents and permits are in place before making any payments or commitments.
