Transcrevo aqui o meu primeiro artigo para o LinkedIn que escrevi em 02/05/2017 pois este golpe continua sendo aplicado com outros nomes de empresa. Se liga!
Decidi escrever este artipara informar sobre um novo golpe que está sendo praticado pela suposta Bristol Marine Construction & Engineering Company. Na verdade, pelo o que eu pesquisei na internet pegaram um golpe antigo e repaginaram. Bom, vamos lá desde o começo.
Estou já há um tempo estou investindo bastante tempo e esforço no LinkedIn para melhorar minha rede de contatos e sondar o mercado. A tônica dos último meses sempre foi várias candidaturas e silêncio do outro lado. Com o mercado brasileiro em crise não é muito difícil entender o porquê. Então, sempre que aparece um e-mail com resposta de um recrutador, o nível de ansiedade e emoção vai lá em cima. E eu recebi um e-mail desses hoje!
Um e-mail totalmente em inglês dizendo que o meu currículo havia sido avaliado e que estava em acordo com as necessidades da empresa. Mais do que isso, minha entrevista já estava marcada para 16/06. Que emoção! Que felicidade! O coração disparado quando vejo que a entrevista será em Londres… Poxa, será que devo ter me candidatado para uma vaga internacional e nem me toquei, será?
Bom longa história encurtada o e-mail continuava muito bem escrito (transcrevo em sua totalidade abaixo) e com 3 anexo que eu teria que contatar uma agência de viagens parceira deles e essa agência seria responsável por todos os trâmites da viagem. Maravilha! Mas eu deveria pagar por isso que, obviamente, seria reembolsado por eles. É nesse momento que os golpistas te pegam. Eu estava feliz, empolgado, o que passava na minha cabeça era que eles eram muito doidos de me chamar sem nem me entrevistar por Skype, mas beleza, vamos para cima! Acontece que quando a esmola é demais o santo desconfia! E ainda bem que o meu desconfiou…
Comecei a procurar pela empresa na internet no celular ainda: Bristol Marine Construction & Engineering Company e pouquíssimas informações foram encontradas. Além disto vi que me candidatei para essa vaga ontem (não se candidatem! ou se candidatem apenas para confirma minha história, sabendo que é golpe!!):
Ao clicar na empresa e procurar por vagas dela… Tchanã!!! Doze resultados para a mesma vaga em diferentes partes do mundo!
Nos dois próximos links, vocês poderão ver que o golpe já foi feito utilizando-se o nome da Total e da Shell, essas sim empresas de verdades, mas os golpistas tinham que mandar e-mail pelo Gmail, logo os candidatos perceberam. Agora eles criaram uma empresa fake!!! Ainda bem que não caí, e espero que ninguém caia, portanto compartilhem para seus contatos.

UPDATE: Logo após escrever esse artigo fiz uma denúncia da pagina do LinkedIn desta “empresa” e, por isso ou coincidentemente, a página e todas as vagas que coloquei no link acima sairam do ar. Mas com certeza muita gente se inscreveu, então vale a pena alertá-los todos!

Olá Cristiano.
Recebi esse scan hoje.
O sentimento vai de alegria e euforia à tristeza e indignação.
Apesar de pesquisar muito sobre a empresa que entrou em contato e que até onde eu vi se trata de uma empresa real. Através de uma simples busca de um dos trechos do e-mail no google, cheguei até esse seu artigo.
Obrigado pelos esclarecimentos.
Todavia, vou dar corda pros golpistas e ver até onde isso pode chegar.

Exatamente assim que me senti Carlos. Que bom que o artigo foi util!
