Kazakhstan warns citizens about fake job offers abroad

The Migration Committee of Kazakhstan's Ministry of Labor strongly advised citizens not to believe enticing advertisements promising quick employment outside the country. According to the agency, most such offers come from foreign intermediaries and dubious organizations that are not officially registered in Kazakhstan and operate outside the legal framework.

The Committee said that chasing easy earnings through unverified internet resources often leads to serious consequences for trusting citizens. Citizens risk major financial losses, a complete lack of legal guarantees and serious difficulties abroad. Organizers of such schemes are often located outside the republic, which makes protecting the rights of victims extremely difficult.

The agency urged citizens to be vigilant, not to trust random announcements on social networks and not to transfer money to dubious recruiters. It stressed that safe employment abroad is possible only through official, accredited operators with prior verification of all documents and permits. The report also recalled that Kursiv had earlier reported 85 cases of human trafficking being stopped in Kazakhstan since the start of the year.
