At Diversifying Group, we're committed to your safety and security. We would like to ask our candidates to beware of a current scam that targets job seekers. Fraudsters may reach out to you impersonating consultants with job opportunities or offers in order to get your personal information or request payment. It's crucial to be vigilant and verify the authenticity of any messages you receive.

Recruitment scams are not always obvious. Here are a few tips on how to identify a fraudulent message:

• It’s from an unknown phone number, country code or email address.

• It contains a link; these may contain malware that could be installed on your device so avoid clicking on these.

• It contains sudden requests for payment or pressure to act quickly.

• It contains poor spelling and/or grammar.

• It contains unrealistic salary or working arrangements - if it’s too good to be true it probably is.

For your safety, we strongly advise:

• Do not respond to these messages.

• Do not share any personal information, banking details, or make any payments requested through these messages.

• Report the scam message to your local authorities or the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) through their official website for further investigation.

At Diversifying Group, we might contact you by text message, however:

• Initial contact will usually be via an email address containing @diversifying.com or via LinkedIn.

• We never send job offers or requests for personal information via text message to individuals who have not registered with our agency.

• We will never ask a candidate to pay fees as part of the recruitment process.

• We have an office phone number on our website, so you can give us a call if you’re not sure of anything.
