Help us beat recruitment fraud
We wanted to let you know about recent ‘phishing’ scams in which fraudsters try to extract personal information or money by pretending to be Columbus Stainless. They might be making false job offers, asking for money to participate in a recruitment process, or running a fake jobs lottery.
How to spot a fraudulent email?
The email may look convincing. But, you’ll know it’s fraudulent if:
- It’s asking for money. We’d never do this.
- It’s asking for bank details before we’ve made you a job offer. We don’t do this either.
- The email address is different to this format: lastname.name@columbus.co.za
- It’s out of the blue: we only offer jobs following a formal application and selection process, including face-to-face interviews.
