What is Recruitment Fraud?
Recruitment fraud is a sophisticated scam where criminals may offer fictitious job opportunities in order to acquire your personal or payment information. This type of fraud is normally perpetrated through online services such as bogus websites or through unsolicited emails claiming to be from the company. These emails request that recipients provide personal information, complete fictitious questionnaires, and possibly even provide payments for immediate offers that may not exist.
How Can You Identify Recruitment Fraud?
- Any communication alleging to be related to recruitment for a position at Valvoline from non-Valvoline sources should be considered suspicious and handled with extreme caution.
- Fraud perpetrators may often use mobile or platform telephone numbers beginning with +44(0)70 instead of official company numbers.
- Fraud perpetrators may even offer to pay a large percentage of the fees requested and ask the candidate to pay the remaining amount.
- Most fraud attempts also reflect a huge sense of urgency – i.e., a do-it-now mentality.
- Be wary of communications that feature grammatical errors.
Please consider that Valvoline Recruiters may reach out to you via LinkedIn or Indeed but will never solicit you from unofficial phone numbers or email addresses.
