Fraudulent messages

• I received a job offer from the United Nations. How do I know if it is authentic?

  To avoid falling victim to fraud related to an alleged job at the UN, please carefully read the fraud warning on our official careers website. 

  Most importantly, the United Nations never requests any form of payment at any stage of the recruitment process. Do not pay to secure a position with the UN.

• I received a message in the name of the UN, and I think it is fraud. How can I report the message?
