WIKILEAKS CABLES DESCRIBE A FEW H-1B FRAUD ATTEMPTS

Some State Department cables that were released by WikiLeaks show concern for fraud in a few countries whose nationals rarely use the H-1B visas: Mexico, Libya and Iceland. The cables are only a collection of anecdotes explaining attempts of visa fraud or misrepresentation.
The consular officers sending those cables described what the fraud attempt was in each case, such as falsifying pay records or educational qualifications or experience.
These are individual cases only and not a systematic problem with the H-1B visa or its integrity and it is good that these few isolated cases got flagged by the consular officers. This is their job.
