ALERT: Current Scams To Watch Out For

 

Fake Job Postings

Fake job postings are a common scam where fraudsters create enticing job listings for companies on popular job boards or social media platforms, often promising high salaries, flexible hours, and amazing benefits. These scams are conducted through online communication and affect all types of companies, regardless of their size, across the country.

MassMutual India values your privacy and security. We will never ask candidates to pay any kind of recruitment or placement fee, transfer cash, or make an investment in any product or service. We will never ask candidates to provide information, such as bank account details, social security numbers, National ID, credit card numbers, or banking PIN numbers, via email, phone, or online platforms.

Common fraud schemes:

  • Individuals posing as recruiters from the actual company.
  • Fake recruiting pages or job postings on sites such as LinkedIn and Google Hangouts.
  • Fraudsters using different channels such as Facebook Messenger, LinkedIn, or Skype to connect with potential victims.
  • Contacting candidates for conducting fake interviews and making fake job offers.

What to do:

  • Do not engage with suspicious recruiters or job postings.
  • Report fraudulent job listings to the relevant job board or platform.
  • Block and mark emails/messages as spam if you suspect fraud.
  • Verify job postings only through MassMutual India’s official website and trusted recruitment channels.

If you suspect someone is impersonating MassMutual India to request this information, please reach out to us at MMGBSITalentAcquisition@massmutual.com

Phishing Scams

These scams often start with an email that appears to be from MassMutual India, asking you to click a link to apply for a job or update your application. The link redirects to a fake website designed to steal your personal information or install malware on your device.

Work-from-Home Scams

With the rise of remote work, scammers can now offer seemingly perfect work-from-home jobs appearing to be from MassMutual India. These scams often require upfront payment for training materials, software, or equipment—something MassMutual never requests from candidates.

How to Spot a Job Scam

    1. Requests for upfront payments—No legitimate employer asks for money.
    2. Unrealistic salary offers—If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
    3. Vague job descriptions—Scammers avoid providing clear job details.
    4. Unprofessional communication—Poor grammar, unofficial emails, or suspicious interview processes.
    5. Pressure to act quickly—Scammers create urgency to prevent you from verifying details.
    6. Requests for sensitive personal information early in the process—A real employer will not ask for bank details or personal IDs before an official job offer.

What to do:

If you discover a fake job posting or are subject to a phishing scam or any of the above-mentioned frauds, consider filing a cybercrime complaint, report the scam to the job board or social media platform where you found the posting, and report it to MassMutual India. You should also consider filing a complaint with your local police department.

Note: MassMutual India does not investigate, take legal action, or assume responsibility for fraudulent job postings or scam activities conducted by third parties misusing its name. Candidates are solely responsible for verifying job opportunities and reporting fraud to the appropriate authorities. Reports of suspected scams may be sent to MMGBSITalentAcquisition@massmutual.com, but MassMutual India does not guarantee any action on such reports.
