In an official announcement, the Collector stated, "Members of the public should not trust such fake advertisements or intermediaries and should not share personal information or money with them. These services can be obtained completely free of charge by directly visiting the Coimbatore District Employment and Career Guidance Centre during office working days."
The Collector has advised job-seeking youth to act cautiously and not fall prey to fake advertisements, reminding them to keep in mind that all services provided by the government employment office are free. The public has been urged to directly approach the official employment office for authentic services rather than relying on social media advertisements.
The warning comes as several unemployed youth have reportedly been duped by fraudsters posing as employment office agents on various social media platforms. The District Administration has reiterated its commitment to providing free employment services to all eligible candidates through the official channel.
