Recruitment scams can target anyone.

Fraudsters not connected to Highland Gateways may post fake jobs or pose as legitimate employers or recruiters to steal personal or financial information or obtain money from you.

Highland Gateways is committed to protecting your privacy and security. We will never ask job candidates to:

• Send application materials via text or instant messaging e.g., WhatsApp or Telegram

• Provide log-in credentials to social media accounts

• Provide sensitive information—including government identification numbers, banking details or payment information—via instant-messaging apps

• Apply for jobs or connect through freelance platforms e.g., Fiverr or Upwork

Please be aware that if you receive any requests like the ones listed above, it is likely a form of fraud.

Spotting a potential job scam

As job scams become more sophisticated, knowing the warning signs can help you stay safe. These can include:

• Unsolicited text messages from unknown numbers

• Group text messages that contain offers sent to multiple people

• Messages sent from generic email accounts e.g., Gmail or Hotmail

• Requests for unnecessary personal information before you even apply

• Unsolicited links or attachments you’re asked to click

• Job offers made immediately or without an interview

• Promises of unusually high pay right away

Missing information: If a site claiming to be Highland Gateways lacks basic details—such as an About Us page, contact information or a clear company background—or has limited pages, treat it as suspicious.
