*******RECRUITMENT FRAUD DISCLAIMER

Notice Of Fraudulent Activity

We have been made aware of certain fraudulent schemes carried out by individuals or organizations falsely claiming to represent Supergut. These scams often occur through unsolicited emails or text messages, fake websites, social media accounts, or online job boards. Their goal is to convince you that you are communicating with a Supergut recruiter or other representative in an attempt to obtain your personal information or money. In these schemes Supergut’s name, logo, and other company information may be used without permission to appear legitimate.

If you encounter suspicious job postings, or receive communications referencing Supergut, or if you have any concerns, please visit our official careers page for guidance on reporting the issue. Legitimate career opportunities with Supergut can be located at: https://supergut.applytojob.com/apply.

We strongly advise that you do not respond to any unsolicited requests to participate in an interview via text message or other informal messaging services. All legitimate hiring processes will include live, direct communication with official company representatives. If you believe you have been targeted or victimized by fraudulent activity, please contact your local law enforcement agency.

Common Warning Signs of Recruitment Fraud:

Unprofessional Communication: If you receive messages, solicitations, or hiring documents that contain spelling and grammatical errors, appear poorly formatted, or include logos that look copied, pasted, or distorted.

Suspicious Email Domains: Emails sent from domains that are not associated with Supergut (i.e., @yahoo.com, @yahoo.co.uk, @gmail.com, @live.com, @consultant.com, etc.), or domains that are designed to look similar but are not legitimate i.e., [email protected], [email protected], @supergutcareers.com, [email protected] or [email protected]).

Unauthorized Email Addresses: Official Supergut emails will only come from approved company domains.

Interviewing Exclusively via Non-Official Channels: Requests to conduct interviews solely by chat, text message, or email without any live interaction.

Requests for Payment: Any request for money at any stage, including for “processing fees”, immigration paperwork, visa costs, equipment, or recruiter fees. Supergut will never require an applicant to submit a payment.

Requests for Personal Information Early in the Process: Being asked for sensitive information such as your address, date of birth, passport information, social security number, or banking details early in the process.

Urgent or High-Pressure Tactics: Messages pushing you to act immediately, respond within an unusually short timeframe, or bypass standard steps.
