This looks suspicious

The advert misuses Norwegian Directorate of Immigration branding.

It falsely claims to be affiliated with the organisation while asking for payment.

The payment request uses an unofficial PayPal page.

This suggests the payment isn’t going to an official immigration service.

The advert mixes immigration branding with unrelated services.

This includes references to publishing and design, which don’t match immigration work.

What reviewers are saying about paypal.com

Trustpilot rating
1.3

out of 5

Based on 36903 reviews

The majority of recent reviews express significant dissatisfaction with PayPal's customer service, dispute resolution, and account management, with many users reporting issues with refunds and account deactivations. Despite a few positive mentions of buyer protection, the overwhelming sentiment suggests a company that is difficult to contact and often sides against consumers, raising concerns about its legitimacy and reliability.

What should you do?

Avoid making a payment or sharing personal details. If you already used the site, contact your bank, change any reused passwords, and keep screenshots of messages or receipts.
