Beware of WhatsApp & Telegram Scams

Defending our Integrity: Beware of WhatsApp & Telegram Scams!

In today's digital age, the rise of scams and fraudulent activities is unfortunately a reality we must confront. We, at Rockstar Recruiting AG, have recently been made aware of a disturbing trend: scammers are misusing our brand name to deceive innocent individuals on platforms like WhatsApp and Telegram.

What's Happening?

Scammers are sending messages under the guise of "Rockstar Recruiting AG" in an attempt to defraud unsuspecting recipients. These messages are not from us, and we are deeply concerned about the potential harm they could cause.

Our Commitment to You

We've always believed in transparency, trust, and the safety of our community. That's why we want to make a few things clear:

  1. Direct Communication: We will never initiate a conversation with you on WhatsApp without your prior consent.
  2. Know Our Team: Always check the team members listed on our official website, www.rockstar.jobs. Only these individuals are authorized to communicate on behalf of Rockstar Recruiting AG.
  3. Collaboration with Authorities: We are actively collaborating with law enforcement and Meta (the parent company of WhatsApp) to address this issue. Every scamming attempt you report to us will also be reported to the relevant authorities.

How You Can Help

Your assistance is invaluable in this fight against scams. Here's how you can help:

  • Stay Vigilant: Always be cautious of unsolicited messages, especially those asking for personal information or money.
  • Report Suspicious Activity: If you receive a suspicious message claiming to be from Rockstar Recruiting AG, please report it both to us and directly within the app you received it on. 
  • Spread the Word: Inform your friends, family, and colleagues about this scam so they can be on guard.

A Heartfelt Thank You

We've poured our heart and soul into building Rockstar Recruiting AG, and it's disheartening to see our name misused in this manner. But with your support, we're confident we can overcome this challenge. Thank you for standing with us and helping to identify these scammers.

Together, we can ensure that the Rockstar Recruiting AG community remains safe and trustworthy.
