Internship/volunteer work on visit visa

I have spoken to some Agencies and as per them we can complete our Internship hours( after FPGEC) on visit visa as a volunteer work and the board will consider this work as the internship. Any of you guys have any idea about this??

please let me know your idea/experience Friends.

Pharmacy State boards require SSN before they issue intern licenses.

Employers/institutions should not accept volunteers without SSN...

All hours done before intern licenses are valid are not counted.

The only way for a foreign graduate to receive a SSN is through H1B visa.

To do volunteer work under a tourist visa is ILLEGAL. Both you and the company will be in trouble.

Those agencies who said that it is possible are just SCAMS. So beware!

I know a foreign pharmacist who finished her internship hours while visiting her family for 6 months.
And she asked the board to transfer her internship hours to the another state board which she has a intern license in.
I guess the boards or NABP don't care the applicants do their internship volunteerly or without ssn.
Am I right?
Is there anyone who has more detailed opinion?
