INTER CHECKS SA: Connected to fake recruitment agencies.

SCAM ALERT!!! I believe this company to be working hand in hand with at least 2 "Recruitment Agencies" EXECUTIVE DIRECT STAFFING SOLUTIONS (EDDS) and EXECUTIVE RECRUITMENT NETWORK. Internet checks for these 2 agencies existence in SA doesn't not yield any results although their email addresses for you to send your results end in co.za. So neither exists!!! Both agencies do exist overseas (stealing an overseas agency's ID to show up in a google search is a common trick used by fake recruiters.) Interchecks once again does exist overseas. HOW IT WORKS: You will apply for a job. Within hours, you will get a reply telling you that you have the job (no interview???) but have to pay for background checks & that it cannot be deducted from your salary. They recommend Interchecks & even provide links & contact details. If you google INTERCHECKS website for a SA foot print, it is decent looking & so you might be fooled. I was almost fooled. What comes up first on Google is their offer to EDDS applicants. This appears before their "official" website which is second in a Google search. They even offer a 50 % discount for applicants from these agencies. They get out of you: * R320 *Identity no & home address to use for fraud. Whilst the email from the recruiter says to send your results to an email address ending in co.za, the email was sent from a gmail account. Currently they are using jammierecruiters@gmail.com.
