KINGSTON, Jamaica— The Electoral Office of Jamaica (EOJ) is distancing itself from a recruitment drive it has supposedly undertaken and is warning the public that it is a scam.
The EOJ, in a post on X, said it was aware of the scam bearing its name. The EOJ also said it was aware that individuals have been receiving phone calls from persons impersonating its staff members.
“These callers falsely claim that individuals have been selected to work in elections, or inquire about their interest, then send a link for persons to share personal information,” the EOJ shared.
It warned that, “This is false and may be a scam”.
The EOJ is urging the public not to engage with such callers, click on any links, or share personal information.
For accurate information, persons may contact the EOJ directly at 876-922-0425, or WhatsApp 1-658-207-6742.
