Migrants are scamming their way into Britain using forged visa documents bought from consultants boasting openly about weak border controls.

Pakistani migrants are paying up to £50,000 for visa applications, which the Home Office is waving through despite the documents being littered with errors and falsehoods.

One application obtained by The Telegraph includes a job reference from a fake hospital that said staff would “recommend her for any position she may be seeking. We wish her all the best in future”.

The Telegraph also posed as a migrant seeking a UK visa from the consultant who had drawn up these fake documents. He boasted of a 98 per cent chance of successful entry into Britain within three months.
