CU Boulder Police warns about job scams impacting students and recent graduates
The University of Colorado Boulder Police Department is investigating a job scam impacting students and recent graduates. In the scam, the applicant is asked to send money to secure employment.
CUPD tweeted an example of a job posting that is not legitimate. Police are asking anyone who has been impacted to call 303-492-6666, and reference cases 2023-8184 and 2023-1039.
CU Boulder Police wants students to know that they "should never pay to apply for a job or secure employment. Avoid texting and instead check the job poster's profile on Handshake, LinkedIn and/or the university's website, then apply via email or through the job portal."
