For participants
Avoid job scams
Scammers copy real company names. Alto HR never charges a fee and never asks for payment by text, social media or gift card.
Warning signs
A fee for a job
Someone asks you to pay for a job, a placement, training or a uniform.
Odd ways to pay
You are asked to pay by gift card, cryptocurrency or a money transfer app.
No way to check
The offer arrives only by text, WhatsApp or social media, with no way to check it.
Too good to be true
The job sounds too good: very high pay, no interview, start immediately.
How to check
Call our office on (850) 805-3774 during office hours, or email info@altohr.com. Your sponsor can also confirm whether a placement is real.
If you think you were scammed
- Stop all contact and do not send more money or documents.
- Tell your sponsor and contact us, so we can warn others.
- Report it to the Federal Trade Commission at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.
- If you paid by card or bank transfer, contact your bank right away.
