At Scalability, we take pride in the trust our clients and partners place in us. Unfortunately, we’ve recently been alerted to a concerning situation: scammers are falsely claiming to represent Scalability, offering fraudulent job opportunities, and asking for payments or cryptocurrency deposits. We want to address this issue head-on and provide guidance to protect you from falling victim to these scams.

What’s Happening?

Scammers have been contacting individuals, often through platforms like WhatsApp, claiming to offer job positions at Scalability. These scams include:

• Requests for cryptocurrency deposits (e.g., USDC) or other payments.
• Promises of commissions for referring others to the "job."
• Misleading statements that Scalability operates WhatsApp groups or job platforms.

In some cases, the scammers reference legitimate-sounding recruiting agencies or job boards like Indeed to appear credible. They might also link to Scalability’s legitimate website, giving the illusion of authenticity.

What We Want You to Know

1. Scalability does not ask for payments or cryptocurrency deposits during any part of our hiring process.
2. We do not operate WhatsApp groups for job-related discussions.
3. Any legitimate job opportunities will be posted through our official channels, such as our website or trusted platforms.

What to Do if You’re Contacted

If someone claiming to represent Scalability contacts you with a suspicious job offer, here’s what you should do:

1. Do not engage. Avoid sharing any personal or financial information.
2. Verify authenticity. Visit our website or contact us directly to confirm if a job offer is genuine.
3. Report the scam. Use the reporting tools on the platform where you were contacted (e.g., WhatsApp, Indeed, or email providers) and inform your local authorities.

Our Next Steps

We’re taking this issue seriously and are:

• Reporting known fraudulent accounts to WhatsApp and other relevant platforms.
• Publishing warnings on our website and LinkedIn to inform and protect others.
• Collaborating with authorities to address these scams.

Protect Yourself

Job scams can happen to anyone. Here are some general tips to stay safe:

• Be skeptical of unsolicited offers that seem too good to be true.
• Verify the sender’s identity through official channels.
• Never pay upfront fees or provide sensitive information to unverified sources.

Thank You for Your Vigilance

We deeply regret that scammers are using Scalability’s name to deceive others. We appreciate the individuals who have brought this issue to our attention and encourage anyone encountering these scams to report them. Together, we can protect our community from these fraudulent schemes.
