Scam Safety

Job scams target people who are looking for work abroad. Protect yourself:

• Never pay any agent or recruiter money in advance for a job, visa or medical test.
• Verify the employer and the job offer with the official source linked on the circular page before you apply.
• For overseas jobs, check with BMET and the Bangladesh embassy in the destination country.
• If anyone asks for payment through bKash, Nagad or a personal bank account for a job, it is a scam — report it.
• Be careful with offers that arrive only by WhatsApp or Facebook with no official posting behind them.
• Never share your passport copy, photos or one-time passwords (OTPs) with strangers.

If you lose money to a scam, report it to the platform where you found it and to your local police.
