The Ministry of Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony Pakistan has introduced a short message service (SMS) for helping the pilgrims to save themselves from fictitious Hajj group organizing companies (HGOs).
As per an official of the ministry, an intending pilgrim who is willing to perform the holy ritual via the Hajj Group Organizers (HGO) should send the first four digits of HGO’s enrolment numbers from mobile phone to 8331 to check and verify the HGO’s authenticity.

The package price remains the same, however you may incur flight change charges (if flight change is possible). Or you may have to travel to the city of departure your self to avail the package. Kindly note: all costs associated with accommodation and travelling to the city of departure will be borne by the Hujjaj.
