If you’re a job seeker, you know better than anyone what it feels like to receive one rejection after the other. So, when someone contacts you on LinkedIn with an opportunity to interview for a job at Luno, be sure to verify that it’s genuinely a Luno employee!
Sadly, there are people pretending to be Luno recruiters. They’ll use fake or hacked LinkedIn profiles to offer you a job at the company that is putting the power of cryptocurrency in everyone’s hands.
But there’s always a catch - applicants are asked to pay a fee, deposit money, or send cryptocurrency to get the job. Luno will never ask you to do this.
Someone pretending to work for Luno will:
-
Charge a fee for an interview, job application or to start a job
-
Force you to invest in or use cryptocurrency to get a job
-
Contact you from an email address that looks legitimate but isn’t, such as @luno.careers
-
Send you a private message on LinkedIn with a job offer
-
Message you on WhatsApp about an employment contract
-
Send you a link to a job that isn’t listed on www.luno.com/careers
Luno’s official email address
If you receive an email that hasn’t come from an @luno.com domain, it isn’t legitimate. Emails from Luno will never come from @gmail.com or any other domain.
Keep in mind
-
Luno recruiters often contact candidates via private messaging on LinkedIn. However, candidates are never sent a job offer. They are offered the opportunity to interview for a specific role or invited to have an introductory chat to learn more about Luno. Be sure to verify that the person messaging you is a real Luno employee.
-
While Luno does contact potential candidates via WhatsApp during the recruitment process in some countries, we will never send a job offer or employment contract via WhatsApp. Don’t click on links sent via WhatsApp from “Luno Recruiters.”
- Luno’s sourcing team often prospects for positions that may not be advertised on various job sites. However, if you’re sent a link to a job that isn’t listed on www.luno.com/careers or on the Luno LinkedIn page, it’s a scam.
Note
If you suspect that someone on LinkedIn is impersonating a Luno recruiter and trying to scam you, report it to LinkedIn and let us know by sending an email to phishing@luno.com.
