Protect Yourself from Umrah Travel Fraud
Umrah is a sacred trust and hard-earned savings. Learn the warning signs of dishonest agencies and keep every rupiah safe.
Licensed vs Unlicensed Umrah Travel
Compare before you commit. A trustworthy agency is always transparent and easy to verify.
Licensed & Trustworthy
- Holds an active PPIU license from the Ministry of Religious Affairs that you can verify yourself via the official government app.
- Has a physical office with a clear address you may visit in person.
- Pricing is reasonable and matches the facilities offered.
- Payments go only to a company (PT) bank account, never a personal one.
- Package details are complete and open: schedule, hotels, and airline clearly stated.
- No surprise extra charges right before departure.
Be Cautious
- Cannot show a PPIU license or its legal identity is vague.
- Operates only via chat or social media, with no office you can visit.
- Prices far below market with no reasonable explanation.
- Asks you to transfer to an individual's personal account.
- Package information keeps changing or is deliberately unclear.
- Promises very fast departure without clarity on document processing.
Common Scam Tactics
Fraudsters keep changing methods. These are the patterns we see most often.
Ponzi-style schemes: new pilgrims' money is used to send earlier ones, until it collapses.
Unrealistic discounts or rewards, such as a free trip for recruiting a number of people.
Directing payment to an individual's personal account instead of the official company account.
Fake documents, tickets, or visas, only discovered at the airport or upon arrival.
Sudden extra fees on departure day when pilgrims have no other choice.
Claiming to be an official AWM Tour agent or partner with no actual relationship to us.
