On October 6, the Department of Overseas Labor Management (Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs) issued a warning about the increasing number of scams in sending workers to work abroad on the internet, using technology.
Accordingly, organizations and individuals who do not have the function of sending workers to work abroad have used websites such as www.nhatban24h.vn; www.xuatkhaulaodong-24h.com... to post information about recruiting workers to work in markets such as Japan, Taiwan (China), Korea, Romania, Poland, Australia, New Zealand, the Federal Republic of Germany, Greece... to commit fraud.
In addition, fraudulent businesses also use personal information pages (such as Facebook, Zalo) to post images of seeing workers off at the airport, the process of workers working abroad, photos taken with visas issued by the receiving country... to create trust with workers.

Notably, information about orders to recruit workers to work abroad, locations where workers will work, information about licenses or websites used to post fraudulent information are often similar to the official website that the business registered with the Department of Overseas Labor Management.
For example, there are many websites with domain names similar to the website halsucohanoi.vn of businesses with official service operating licenses registered with the Department of Overseas Labor Management, such as: halsuco.com.vn, halsuco.vn.
After registering a phone number, workers will be introduced to businesses by consultants, but most of them are not licensed to operate services sending workers to work abroad.
When workers transfer money, these accounts provide copies of receipts, citizen identification cards and contracts with company stamps so that workers can trust and continue to pay other fees.
Workers who live far away or are introduced to the company do not trust and do not come directly to work, verify information and sign contracts directly. They only contact, exchange and work through social networks and phone numbers. When the deadline comes and they are not allowed to leave the country, if the worker contacts them, these accounts and phone numbers will be locked or blocked from contact.
When there is a related incident, businesses that do not have the function of providing services will deny any involvement with fraudulent websites or the locations where workers come to pay money and work are often not the business locations or representative offices of the business; photocopied documents sent over the internet can be edited and have no legal value.
The Department of Overseas Labor Management recommends that workers who want to export labor need to be vigilant, absolutely do not believe in information inviting or promising jobs on websites, Facebook, Zalo... and absolutely do not transact or contact businesses or individuals that do not have the function of providing services to send workers to work abroad.
"Workers who want to work abroad need to contact directly with businesses that have a license to operate services sending Vietnamese workers to work abroad under contracts to find out relevant information.
Workers can look up information about licensed businesses on the website of the Department of Overseas Labor Management at www.dolab.gov.vn," the Department of Overseas Labor Management warned.
Workers who need advice, more information or feedback on organizations and individuals with signs of fraud in sending workers to work abroad, please contact the Department of Overseas Labor Management at 0243.8.249.517, extensions 512 and 513, address 41B Ly Thai To, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi.
