Dubai Police have issued a warning to jobseekers in the UAE about fraudulent part-time job offers that aim to steal banking information and facilitate illegal financial transactions. The Anti-Fraud Centre at the General Department of Criminal Investigation has urged residents to verify employers through official channels and never share personal banking details, one-time passwords, or pay money to secure a job.
Scammers often exploit jobseekers by offering attractive part-time opportunities that appear legitimate but are designed to facilitate fraud. The warning is part of Dubai Police's participation in the Ministry of Interior's "A Safe UAE Starts with Your Digital Awareness" campaign, which aims to raise public awareness of online fraud and cybercrime.
Residents are advised to remain vigilant and report any fraudulent job offers or suspicious activities through the Dubai Police e-Crime platform or by calling 901.
