How to Recognise a Recruitment Scam

Be cautious if you:

  • Receive communications from unofficial email addresses or suspicious online profiles, including via WhatsApp, Telegram, SMS, or social media. All Beilby Downing Teal consultant email addresses end in @beilbydt.com.au.
  • Are offered a role without participating in an interview or assessment process.
  • Are promised unusually high earnings for minimal work.
  • Are asked to share sensitive financial information or transfer money on behalf of someone else.

Staying Safe During Your Job Search

To help protect yourself from recruitment fraud, we recommend that you:

  • Verify the identity of recruiters before sharing personal information.
  • Confirm job opportunities through official company websites or trusted recruitment firms.
  • Research organisations independently using publicly available contact details.
  • Be cautious when sharing identity documents, such as passports, driver's licences, or banking information.
  • Take time to assess job offers and be wary of opportunities that seem too good to be true.
  • Contact the organisation directly if you are unsure whether a communication is genuine.
