Warning: fraudulent messages using ELA’s name
We are aware of scams misusing the European Labour Authority name and logo in messages sent to individuals (e.g. about job offers or administrative procedures). ELA does not contact individuals directly, request personal documents by email, or ask for payments. These messages are scams. If you receive any such communication, do not engage, share personal information, or send money.
Stay alert and cautious! Contact us to report a scam.
