There are a large number of people in the country who want to work abroad. Every year millions of people go to different countries of the world for jobs. However, these days a big game of fraud is going on in the name of getting jobs abroad. Gangs that commit fraud in the name of jobs are very active. Every day there are news of fraud in the name of job in the headlines of newspapers. In the name of getting a job, some are being cheated of Rs 2 lakh and some of Rs 20 lakh.
The saddest thing is that some people are taken to foreign countries and trapped. In May this year, the Indian Embassy had safely rescued 60 victims of fraud in Cambodia. All these people were sent back safely. The embassy had also issued guidelines to protect people from job fraud. However, some people still become victims of fraud. In such a situation, let us know about those 5 ways by which fraud in the name of job abroad can be avoided.
(1.) Verify the agent on the website of the Ministry of External Affairs
If you get a job offer from abroad then go to emigrate.gov.in website. When you reach the Recruiting Agent tab here, you will get the list of agents. After this click on Recruiting Agent List, which will take you to a new page from where you can download the PDF. Here you will find the list of foreign agents who have been declared fake by the Ministry of External Affairs. Here you can check your agent name whether it is fake or not.

(2.) Find out the credibility of the company
It is important to know whether the company from which you have received a job offer is fake or not. Company registration and license status can be checked online. In India, this work can be done by visiting the website of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. In some countries, government or private databases are required to obtain information about the company, for which some fees also have to be paid.
(3.) Close examination of the offer letter
Whatever company gives the job offer letter, it usually has the signatures of the company officials. You will find the entire letter written in a very professional manner. For this reason, whenever you receive an offer letter, definitely check whether the company's logo is erased from it or not. There are no typing errors or wrong words in the offer letter. If words are tampered with, one should immediately be alert. It is possible that you may have received an offer letter from a fake company.
(4.) Visit the company's website
Be it in India or abroad, if the company is good then it will definitely have its own website. On the website you will find company contact details and employee reviews. You can also know about the work culture there from the company's website. If a company has a presence on a platform like LinkedIn, it also shows its credibility. If the website is well maintained then it means that the company is not fake.
(5.) Consult the Indian Embassy
If you get a job offer from a foreign company, it would be better if you talk to the Indian Embassy of the country where you are being invited for the job. Through the embassy you will get correct information whether the company is fake or genuine. The Indian Embassy can also give you correct information about the current situation in that country.
