A fake text message is making rounds on WhatsApp claiming there is a Massive intake at Anglo American’s Unki Mine in Shurugwi. The scam message lists various job positions and urges applicants to contact the recruitment team via phone or email.
The message, which includes a lengthy list of job positions available in the administrative, transport, and engineering departments, is accompanied by contact details for the purported recruitment team. It specifies the names and phone numbers of the fake HR representatives, listing a Mrs. Nhire and Mr. Midzi who the scam message says should be contacted on 714751954 or App 715477977, as well as an email address ending with “[email protected].”
Speaking on the circulating message, Unki Protection services advised job seekers to disregard the scam message clarifying that Anglo American vacancies, Including those at Unki Mines, will NEVER be advertised on social media such as Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter, Instagram or YouTube.
“This is a message from heartless criminals who prey on unsuspecting job seekers who are desperate for employment,” Unki Protection representative said.
He shared a document that stipulates how employment is gained at the platinum miner.
Mining Zimbabwe tried contacting the listed numbers which rang but there was no response. We also sent a Whatsapp message which had not been responded to by the time of publishing this article.
