Visit Visa to Work Visa

bulanbuland8

One guy in our flat came from abroad and he said he is on a visit visa, and I explained to him that visit visas cannot be converted nowadays and even if you have to do it, the job should be from the same sponsor who gave the visit visa and it will cost 250BD, and he told me, that the agent said that the conversion will only cost 20BD, how true is that? Did he just get scammed?
