At Aprigliano Law Firm, the trust and safety of our clients and community are at the centre of everything we do. For this reason, we are issuing an important Fraud Alert.

We have recently become aware of an unauthorized website (workvisa***.com) that is falsely claiming a collaboration or partnership with our firm in order to sell visa-related services. This website is using our name in a misleading way and may be asking users for payments.

This communication is intended to clarify the situation, protect our clients, and provide guidance on how to stay safe online.

We have no partnership with Visa service websites

To avoid any doubt, we wish to state this clearly and unambiguously: Aprigliano Law Firm has no affiliation, partnership, or cooperation with any external website offering Italian work visas or paid visa services:

• We do not outsource our legal services to third-party platforms.
• We do not authorize any online platform to collect payments on our behalf.
• Any website stating that it “works with Aprigliano Law Firm” or is “partnered with Aprigliano” for visa services is fraudulent.

If you have interacted with a website that offers work visas and displays our firm’s name, please be aware that it is not affiliated with us in any way.

Below is a screenshot of the fraudulent website falsely claiming a collaboration with our firm. The domain and sensitive elements have been intentionally removed.

How to recognise the fraudulent website

The unauthorized platform typically:

• Promotes itself as a provider of Italian work visas or similar visa services.
• Claims to collaborate with, be endorsed by, or be in partnership with Aprigliano Law Firm.
• Uses our name (and sometimes our brand style) to gain credibility and encourage users to trust their services.
• May request payments or personal information for visa processing or “fast-track” services.

If you see any of the above combined with references to our law firm, treat it as a warning sign.

What to do if you have used or contacted the fraudulent website

If you believe you have visited or interacted with the unauthorized website:

1. Stop any payments immediately
   Do not transfer further funds or share card details.
2. Do not upload personal documents
   Avoid sending passports, IDs, or other sensitive information.
3. Collect evidence
   Save emails, payment receipts, or screenshots (without sharing sensitive data publicly).
4. Contact us directly
   Write to info@apriglianos.com and briefly describe what happened.
5. Consider reporting the website
   Depending on your country, you may file a report with your local consumer protection authority or cyber-fraud unit.

We cannot control the actions of third parties, but we can help you understand whether you are dealing with an official Aprigliano channel or not, and we can guide you on the next steps.
