Despite all the measures taken by us, the authenticity of

guaranteed. To keep yourselves protected from such cases, we advise you to stay
alert and analyse each offer in detail before drawing a conclusion. We also
request that you bring to light any suspicious activity so that we can promptly
notify the member in question and take the necessary steps to prevent further
harm. We also broadcast any such suspicious activities in the Fraud Alert
section to keep our candidates aware. We don’t represent or promote any such
fraudulent communication and categorically deny any affiliation with such
fraudulent set-ups.
Arm yourself to identify cheating.
Email frauds are commonly initiated by email IDs that
closely resemble the source they intend to use. E.g.,
support@job.goonecart.com, they can be broadly categorised into spoofing and
phishing.
Spoofing: An easy fraudulent attempt, spoof emails come
requesting monetary transactions, providing fraudulent offer letters or
training letters, or assuring jobs, which generally either give incorrect
contact information or don’t provide complete contact information.
Phishing is a popular trick used by fraudsters wherein they
send emails in order to induce individuals to reveal personal information, such
as passwords and credit card numbers, online. This could be through links in
the mail that would redirect you to fraudulent login pages where your account
details, such as your account number, login information, and other personal
details, can be retrieved.
Suggested warning signs to watch out for in emails received
by you:
Non-provision of complete contact information and details
Seek your bank-related information, such as credit card
numbers and bank account details.
Ask for unwanted personal information and other irrelevant,
non-work-related information.
Promise jobs abroad and charge money for fulfilling the
formalities.
Assure placement and paid training, and take charges for the
same.
Specifically and categorically, we ask you not to interact
with the firm or friendsjob.online.
We strongly advise a thorough inquiry from your end so that
you are sure of the authenticity of such mails and proceed with any sort of
interaction only when sure.
Checklist for Verification
To help you distinguish a genuine employer and save yourself
from fraud, here are a few tips for you:
Check whether the offer you have received is against any job
opening you have applied to or whether it has been received directly.
Check out the details of the company from which the offer
has been received through online search engines such as Yahoo, Google, etc.
Take a careful look at the email ID to see whether there is
any connectivity between the company referred to and the email ID used. Most
genuine companies use email IDs such as abc@companyname.com.
Check if they seek any monetary transactions. The companies
that seek money from you in lieu of employment are, in most cases, fraudulent.
Check all these details and analyse past history, especially
in cases where the job offers are from abroad.
Our primary concern is always client satisfaction, and we
leave no stone unturned in keeping your association with us absolutely safe,
hassle-free, and fraud-free.
In case you come across any such doubtful offer, opening, or
communication, do bring it to our attention. Send your feedback now.
