Fraudulent message on Whatsapp about job opportunities

HIBRID

Wrote: Etrit Rexhepi

A part-time job opportunity is being sought for 1-2 hours with a daily salary of 100 - 1000 euros, from the Berkshire Hathaway XU Group project.

This is the content in Albanian, which was sent to citizens via a message on the "Whatsapp" application.

What is the truth?

Hibrid.info's findings show that the claimed possibility does not exist.


Message sent from the number with the prefix + 95:


What did hibrid.info find?

In a message that hibrid.info came across, the number that sent this message to the phone has the prefix +95, which is used in the country of Myanmar (Burma) (see here). This number forwarded the message of another number, which has a US prefix (see here). These numbers on "Whatsapp" lack the identity data of the person or institution using them.

The message does not make clear the profession sought for employment. Hibrid.info has researched through search engines for "Berkshire Hathaway XU Group", whose name appears in the content of this message.

On Google, it shows an insurance company called "Berkshire Hathaway", which in its official references lacks the phrase "XU Group" (see here).

The company in question, in 2022, had reacted to fraud in its name, carried out in similar forms, where the name of this company was incorrectly presented (see here). This makes the content in question even more suspicious.


Analyze:

Claiming through a message about a part-time job opportunity is a scam.

The message in Albanian was sent from the Myanmar state prefix, does not make clear the profession sought, and has manipulated the official name of the company that claims to offer this opportunity.

Based on its work methodology, hibrid.info assesses this content as "Fraud".

Reasoning:

The “Deception” rating is given to informational content that is manipulated in terms of visual (deepfake, cheapfake), audio, or textual content to deceive the audience. This form of deception is usually used to produce false and manipulated content.
