Hyderabad: Your job offer abroad could be a scam

With a steady increase in the number of people exploring lucrative work overseas options, there has been a corresponding rise in instances of frauds related to fake job offers abroad and fraudulent visa consultancies.

Many of such cases have been reported from Hyderabad in India.

Fraud companies often go to great lengths to establish their credibility. According to the Hyderabad police, there have been many cases reported of such firms conducting medical tests and interviews. Some even sent offer letters.

Typically, the fraudsters proceed by asking for a hefty amount from the individual. All in the name of visa processing and completion of other related formalities.

As per a senior official in Hyderabad, cyber criminals, especially in the north of India, view resumes posted by job seekers on various well-known job portals. After having purchased the resumes from the job portals, such fraudsters then get in touch with the job seekers directly, assuring them of high-paying jobs in various multinationals.

Common red flags to look out for

If you are exploring work overseas options while in India, there are certain red flags that you must look out for if someone offers you a job overseas. Always keep in mind that –

• No genuine employer will ever ask you to pay money for an interview.
• Meet the persons offering you overseas jobs yourself, at their office.
• Never accept any back-door job offers.
• Attend interviews in person.
• Cross-check from the official website of the company if there is indeed any vacancy that you are being offered.
• Discuss with your family and friends before you transfer any amount.

All things said and done, the rule to follow in such situations is to proceed with extreme caution whenever you are being offered any too-good-to-be-true deals.

When you are looking for a job overseas from India, the first thing to be established beyond a doubt is the genuineness or the authenticity of the company. Now, how can you be sure of the authenticity of an overseas employer? By approaching any overseas employer only through reliable sources.

Always look for work overseas through official sources, such as – “Job Bank” by the Government of Canada for jobs in Canada; and “Make it in Germany”, the official website of the Federal Government of Germany.
