A viral claim about job openings at the National Backward Classes Finance & Development Mission (NBCFDM) has been debunked. Fraudulent websites are falsely advertising recruitment opportunities, misleading job seekers across the country.
False Recruitment Claims
Two websites, chnbcfdmvacancy.in and chnbcfdm.in, have been inviting applications for multiple positions, including District Project Officer and Account Officer. These sites claim to be affiliated with the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment (MSJE), but this information is completely false.
Government Confirms the Scam
The Press Information Bureau (PIB) Fact Check has confirmed that these websites are fake and that NBCFDM is not linked to MSJE in any way. This clarification warns job seekers to be cautious and avoid falling for such fraudulent schemes.
How to Protect Yourself from Job Scams
- Verify official sources before applying for any job. The legitimate website for the National Backward Classes Finance and Development Corporation (NBCFDC) is nbcfdc.gov.in.
- Report fraudulent websites and cybercrimes at cybercrime.gov.in.
- Do not share personal or financial information on unverified job portals.
Stay Safe and Informed
With the rise of online job scams, it is crucial to cross-check recruitment advertisements before applying. Always rely on official government sources to prevent falling victim to fraud.
