Employment Scam Notice
Effective Date: August 26, 2026
Last Updated: August 26, 2026
The Right Hire, Inc. is committed to protecting job seekers from fraudulent employment offers and individuals who may impersonate our company or recruiters.
Recruitment scams may use fake job advertisements, websites, email addresses, social-media accounts, text messages, or online interviews to obtain money or personal information.
HOW TO RECOGNIZE LEGITIMATE COMMUNICATION
Official email communication from The Right Hire should come from an email address associated with our authorized company systems.
If you receive a message from someone claiming to represent The Right Hire and are uncertain whether it is legitimate, do not rely on the contact information provided in that message. Contact us independently through therighthire.com or at info@therighthire.com.
Legitimate recruiting may include telephone calls, text messages, emails, interviews, applications, identity verification, and employment-onboarding steps. However, these activities should occur through authorized representatives and established company processes.
THE RIGHT HIRE WILL NOT ASK YOU TO:
• Pay an application, interview, recruiting, or placement fee
• Purchase gift cards or cryptocurrency
• Send money to secure a position or assignment
• Deposit a check and return or transfer part of the money
• Pay an individual recruiter through a personal payment account
• Purchase equipment from an unknown vendor as a condition of employment
• Provide online banking passwords or account login credentials
• Allow remote access to your computer or mobile device
• Participate in financial transactions on behalf of a recruiter or employer
Be cautious of anyone who pressures you to act immediately, avoids reasonable verification, promises unusually high compensation, or offers employment without an appropriate recruiting process.
PROTECTING PERSONAL INFORMATION
Some personal information may legitimately be required during formal application and onboarding, including information needed for identity verification, tax documentation, payroll, employment eligibility, or background screening.
Only provide sensitive information after you have:
• Confirmed that the opportunity and recruiter are legitimate
• Entered the official application or onboarding process
• Confirmed why the information is required
• Verified that you are using an authorized and secure system
Do not send Social Security numbers, government identification, banking information, tax documents, or employment eligibility documents through an unverified email address, text message, social-media conversation, or general website contact form.
WARNING SIGNS
A communication may be fraudulent if:
• The sender uses a misspelled or unrelated email domain
• The sender communicates only through an encrypted messaging app
• The position was offered without a meaningful interview or review
• The description contains major inconsistencies or obvious errors
• The sender asks for money, gift cards, cryptocurrency, or financial transfers
• You receive a check and are instructed to purchase equipment or return funds
• The sender pressures you to provide sensitive information immediately
• Compensation appears unrealistic for the position
• The job cannot be verified through an official company source
• The sender refuses to provide verifiable company contact information
WHAT TO DO IF YOU RECEIVE A SUSPICIOUS MESSAGE
