After some months, he only got a job appointment letter which, according to the agent, would enable him to work in Canada.

The travel agent then disappeared into thin air. The man, not knowing what to do, approached another agent with the job offer letter.

The new agent used the job offer letter to apply for a Canadian visa for the man, but upon review by the embassy, it was discovered that the job was fake.

The man was denied a visa and also banned from entering Canada for a period of five years.

The ban is a punishment for presenting a fake job offer letter, which the man unknowingly got from the travel agent.
