Fraud Alert

Fraud Alert: Protect Yourself from Employment Scams

At Objective Partners, we are dedicated to helping individuals find meaningful career opportunities. Unfortunately, we have become aware of fraudulent activity where scammers are impersonating companies like ours and offering fake job opportunities to unsuspecting job seekers. These scams aim to collect personal and financial information or trick victims into making payments. We take this matter seriously and want to ensure that job seekers know how to identify legitimate communication from Objective Partners and its Family of Talent Brands, and avoid these scams.

How to Identify a Scam

Here are key signs that you might be dealing with a scam:

1. Unsolicited Job Offers:

• Be cautious if you receive a job offer without having applied for a position or participated in an interview. Scammers often promise high salaries or impressive roles out of the blue. We will never provide you with an unsolicited job offer.

1. Requests for Payment:

• We will never ask for payment as part of the hiring process. If you are asked to pay for job placement, training materials, or equipment, it’s a scam. 

1. Suspicious Email Addresses:

• Official communication from Objective Partners and its Family of Talent Brands will always come from our verified domains; @objectivepartners.co, @oprecruiting.com, @talution.com, @objectiveerp.com, @opcybertalent.com, and @infratechsolutions.com. Emails from free services like Gmail, Yahoo, or from unfamiliar domains are fraudulent.

1. Encrypted Communications: 

• We will not request to move communication from our domain’s email to encrypted services like Telegram, Signal, or WhatsApp. 

1. Pressure Tactics:

• Scammers often try to rush you into making decisions and providing them with sensitive information.

1. Personal Information Requests:

• Be wary of any requests for sensitive information (e.g., Social Security Number, bank account details) before going through a formal interview process. Objective Partners will not ask for such details during the recruitment process..

1. Report Suspicious Activity:
   If you suspect a scam, please report it to us immediately at info@objectivepartners.co with "Fraudulent Job Offer" in the subject line. You should also report the scam to the relevant authorities, such as the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) at ic3.gov.

What to Do If You’ve Been Targeted by a Scam

If you believe you have fallen victim to a scam, here are the steps you should take:

1. Contact Your Bank:
   Immediately notify your bank or credit card company to prevent further fraud.
2. File a Report:
   Report the incident to local law enforcement and file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at ReportFraud.ftc.gov or by calling (877) IDTHEFT.
3. Monitor Your Accounts:
   Keep a close watch on your bank and credit accounts for any unusual activity and take prompt action if necessary.

Stay Vigilant

We are committed to ensuring a safe and secure job search experience for all candidates. Please stay alert and cautious of unsolicited job offers or any request for sensitive information. If you have any doubts about the authenticity of a job offer, contact us directly.
