Expert Opinion
A single report highlights a suspicious WhatsApp message masquerading as a job opportunity from a supposed LinkedIn recruiter. The inclusion of a dubious website link promoting inexpensive clothing raises red flags for potential scam tactics, where fraudsters exploit job seekers by posing as legitimate professionals. Such approaches often lead to phishing or financial demands. To protect yourself, verify any contact through official LinkedIn channels, avoid clicking unsolicited links, and report to authorities like Action Fraud. Always scrutinise unexpected recruitment outreach—legitimate firms rarely initiate via informal apps.
