Important Notice: Fraudulent Job Offers Using Our Brand Name

We have recently become aware of fraudulent activities where individuals are impersonating our company and using part of our domain name to contact people about remote job offers. These offers may be part of a scam intended to collect personal or financial information.

Your safety and trust are of the utmost importance to us. Please read the following information carefully.

  • Asks for payment or fees for processing applications.
  • Seems suspicious or too good to be true.

Legitimate communications from our company will:

  • Never contact you via WhatsApp or Telegram at any stage of the recruitment process.
