A kidney now costs 262,000 dollars (131 million CFA francs); the heart costs 119,000 dollars (60 million CFA francs) and the liver costs 157,000 dollars (79 million CFA francs). Beware of fake foreign agencies promising to make you work abroad. They process your papers, pay for your plane ticket and just take you abroad, pretending they want to find you a job, but instead, they kill their victims and recover all the precious parts of their bodies. Many people have been offered jobs in the Middle East and so far, their families have been unable to locate them.

However, there were no such.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further searching, we were able to find further information regarding this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UNODC Pakistan confirmed that the purported alert is fake, telling AFP that the message &#8220;<em>does not originate from UNODC and contains out-of-date information unrelated to current UNODC activities.\u201d<\/em> Related AFP articles can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/factcheck.afp.com\/united-nations-denies-issuing-organ-trafficking-alert-middle-east\">here<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.vn\/kF9W3\">Archived<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And also, we were able to find out that such social media posts were spread in Nigeria also. There were claims in Nigeria stating that International Migratory Organization (IMO), a UN agency official, spoke about this organ trafficking and warned the Nigerians willing to migrate to the Middle East.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the related UN officer emphasized to the BBC that he didn`t make such a statement and that social media posts were fake. However, he further explained to the BBC that they helped hundreds of Nigerians who became victims of human trafficking, but not such organ transplanting scams.

However, the UN has not released a warning of organ trafficking to aspiring foreign job seekers who are about to enter the middle east.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!DOCTYPE html>\n\t\t\t\t\t<html>\n\t\t\t\t\t<head>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, initial-scale=1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t\t\t.container {\n\t\t\t\t\t  border: 2px solid #000;\n\t\t\t\t\t  background-color: #eee;\n\t\t\t\t\t  border-radius: 5px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  padding: 16px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  margin: 16px 0\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t\t.container::after {\n\t\t\t\t\t  content: \"\";\n\t\t\t\t\t  clear: both;\n\t\t\t\t\t  display: table;\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t\t.container img {\n\t\t\t\t\t  float: left;\n\t\t\t\t\t  margin-right: 20px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  border-radius: 50%;\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t\t.container span {\n\t\t\t\t\t  font-size: 20px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  margin-right: 15px;\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t\t@media (max-width: 500px) {\n\t\t\t\t\t  .container {\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  text-align: center;\n\t\t\t\t\t  }\n\t\t\t\t\t  .container img {\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  margin: auto;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  float: none;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  display: block;\n\t\t\t\t\t  }\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/head>\n\t\t\t\t\t<body>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.factcrescendo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/False.png\" alt=\"Avatar\" style=\"width:120px\">\n\t\t\t\t\t  <p><span>Title:<\/span>This is NOT a Statement Issued by The UN Regarding Organ Trafficking in Middle East Region!
