WhatsApp Scam

Thank you for visiting Eden Scott; let's help you find your next job or the right talent to grow. 

However, we must apologise if you are visiting us because you received a WhatsApp message promising employment. We are being targeted in an impersonation attack by bad actors who indiscriminately contact people outside our database.

Because it is outwith our data, we cannot predict who will be targeted. They have your data from somewhere, so we encourage you to register your attack with the Action Fraud Team by clicking the button below. 

Again, we are sorry you have received this approach; our consultants would never approach you via WhatsApp.

Thanks 

Team Eden Scott
