£3 Million Immigration Scam: British Airways Manager Flees After Visa Fraud

From another site -.."Canadian authorities noticed a pattern of BA flights arriving FROM HEATHROW at Toronto or Vancouver, where passengers would immediately claim asylum. Closer inspection revealed a startling common denominator: all these passengers had been checked in by the same British Air individual at Heathrow, who falsely verified that the travelers had an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) necessary for entry to Canada.

.. An eTA can only be sought by a passenger in their country of origin. And would normally be rejected without the fraudulent intervention of this airline official. The scam went on for years, demonstrating the sophisticated methods they used to bypass immigration controls. "

Reportedly, the BA scammer pocketed a "per-passenger fee" of 25,000 British pounds( $ 31,000 USD )

This is a manager at age 24???

Progressive soft on crime policies are the reason why the UK authorities are chasing this guy to another continent. Should have been remanded to jail until trial. Now, the UK will never get this criminal back for trial

1) The scam has been in operation for years, and all with the aid of the same BA airline official.
2) The official is only 24 years old, and already a BA manager

No wonder he was a manager - he clearly had years of experience behind him since he began working full time for BA shortly after his 14th birthday !!!

Is this another case of the reported, and the reality, being miles apart?
