UN Clarifies UN Recruitment Channels

28 April 2021

  • The UN clarifies about individuals in Lebanon impersonating UN staff members and scamming people after promising them jobs with the UN.

It has come to the attention of the United Nations (UN) that some individuals in Lebanon may be impersonating UN staff members and scamming people after promising them jobs with the UN or circulating fake vacancy announcements of positions with the international organization.

The UN system in Lebanon underlines that its recruitment procedures are not done through individuals but strictly through the official UN career portal or official UN websites.

The UN system also underlines that individuals impersonating the position of an international UN civil servant would be committing fraud and subject to legal action.
