Kariega – Volkswagen Group South Africa (VWSA) has been made aware of an online scam in which fake job vacancies at VWSA are advertised and applicants are charged money during the recruitment process.
This scam, which the company strongly condemns, takes advantage of job seekers by requiring payment before they are interviewed, and again when they are sent a false appointment letter featuring the old Volkswagen logo.
VWSA would never charge money at any point in its recruitment process, and all job vacancies are listed directly on the Careers page on the company website.
A case has been opened with the Kariega police in relation to this scam. The company urges job seekers to not trust job listings that require payment, and to report any such listings to their nearest police station.
