It’s another day in the Long March out of China by Western firms. This time around, it’s IBM’s turn. On Monday, the tech giant announced it would be shutting down its Chinese research and development team, shifting some operations to other international locations and affecting around 1,000 employees in the process.

The US Diversity Visa Lottery, also known as the Green Card Lottery, is an annual program administered by the US State Department. This initiative provides individuals from countries with low immigration rates to the United States an opportunity to apply for permanent resident status. However, the program's popularity has unfortunately made it a target for fraudulent activities. Michael Waller, an attorney with the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC), cautions against scammers who claim they can enhance an applicant's chances of winning the lottery or assist in the application process. These fraudsters often demand payment for their supposed services, but in reality, they cannot influence the outcome of the lottery.
