Belarus Job Offer Raises Red Flags: Passport Request Sparks Scam Concerns
Grodno, Belarus – June 4, 2025: A recent video circulating online has raised concerns about potential labor exploitation. A woman in Belarus is advertising for 10 male construction workers, requesting passports and a pre-deposit from interested candidates. She explicitly states it's not a sponsorship and that she has no office in Nigeria, raising red flags about the legitimacy of the offer. While the video doesn't explicitly detail the nature of the work or the compensation, the unusual requirements have prompted questions about potential scams targeting foreign workers. The video's low view count and lack of comments suggest limited reach, but the unusual circumstances warrant further investigation by local authorities to ensure worker protection. The incident highlights the importance of verifying job offers thoroughly before sending personal documents or making financial commitments.
