What is recruitment fraud?
Recruitment fraud is a sophisticated scheme wherein an individual not affiliated with the purported company misrepresents themselves as an employee or employment recruiter offering a fabricated employment opportunity. Recruitment fraud is often carried out through online services such as sham websites or fake e-mails claiming to be from a specific company though it can also occur using more traditional means such as the mail. The individuals running these scams often request recipients send personal information or pay fees as part of their sham recruiting scheme.
How do you identify recruitment fraud?
1. Fake job offers often ask for financial or personal information early on in the hiring process. Moster Craft, P.C., does not ask for any monetary commitment from any applicant during any phase of the pre-employment process.
2. A fake job recruiter may ask you to book travel through a specific travel agency with assurances they will reimburse you for travel expenses.
3. A fake job recruiter may request you personally purchase equipment or supplies as part of your onboarding with the assurance they will reimburse you after you are hired.
4. A fake job recruiter may mail you a check to deposit and then notify you that you have been overpaid and must pay a partial refund.
5. A fake job offer may come from a generic email provider. If you receive an email from a sender that does not contain @themosterlawfirm.com or lists an employee in a different role than our website delineates, please treat it as fraudulent.
6. A fake job offer may be unsolicited or be extended without any official interview process. No job offer will be extended at Moster Craft, P.C., without a formal interview with either Priscilla Collazo, Lindsey B. Craft, and/or Charles A. Moster.
If you think you may have been targeted or a victim of recruitment fraud, please contact your local authorities and/or file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at www.ftc.gov or the Internet Crime Complaint Center at www.ic3.gov.
