Here, the fraudster wants to convey a job that doesn't exist - for a fee of several thousand

A job at a cheese factory in Kristianstad - where the employer provides accommodation and neither language skills nor work experience are required.

A position in a warehouse in Malmö, with an hourly wage of 15 euros and an advance payment after two weeks.

These are two examples of jobs advertised on various Russian-language websites.

It sounds too good to be true.

And it is, too.

The ads are completely fake.

Skånemejerier and Tetra Pak are two of the companies that appear in fake advertisements on Russian-language websites.

Both companies deny that they have anything to do with the respective advertisements.

- We use a completely different type of communication for our recruitment processes.

We condemn this type of fake job advertisement, Tetra Pak writes in an email.

Here, the agency wants to charge for fixing a job that doesn't exist

The number in one of the ads leads to a man who calls himself Vladimir and who claims to represent an employment agency.

They are currently recruiting for the vacant position, the man confirms.

He announces that they charge a fee of 250 euros, equivalent to 2700 kroner, to fix the job.

The contact refers to a website, a Google site that presents itself as "We Are First Ukraine", where Tetra Pak's logo and the fake job advertisement are displayed.

The agency claims to be approved by the government of Ukraine and to cooperate with large Swedish companies in the field of recruitment.

When we confront the contact with information about the fake ad, we get no response.

"Yes, employees are currently being selected for the vacancy in question".

In the message, a contact confirms that they are currently recruiting for a job at Tetra Pak.

At the same time, Tetra Pak themselves confirm that the job does not exist and that the ad is false.

"Helped hundreds"

Ivan Semenov comes from Ukraine but lives in Sweden.

He runs a YouTube account about working abroad where he repeatedly warns of fraudsters.

- It's about a lack of language skills, and that you don't know what the job market looks like abroad.

Therefore, you risk paying money to fraudsters, says Ivan Semenov.

He has seen countless fake ads and also done his own investigations.

- I think I have helped hundreds of people not to lose money.

And people always ask if I can check several ads, but I can't help everyone, I work as a sheet metal worker and don't have time, says Ivan Semenov.

Hear him tell more in the video above.
