FRAUD ALERT

Fake Website Impersonating Workaway International

Workaway International has recently been made aware of a fraudulent website impersonating our organisation: https://workaway.co.za/. This website is NOT affiliated with Workaway International and has been created to mislead users into sharing personal information and engaging with misleading offers.

The fake website appears to promote international work opportunities and encourages users to register, submit personal information, and engage with promotions or prizes. However, this site is an independent platform and explicitly states that it is not affiliated with any specific placement company, despite presenting itself in a way that may cause confusion with legitimate organisations like Workaway International.

What You Should Know

Workaway International takes the security and trust of our participants very seriously. Please note the following important points:

  • Workaway International will never ask you for any form of payment in order to apply for opportunities, register for programs, or secure placements.

  • We do not run competitions or prize giveaways that require personal details or financial information.

  • Our official communication will always come through our verified channels and official website.

  • If you encounter websites, emails, or social media pages claiming to represent Workaway International that request money or sensitive information, treat them with caution.

What To Do If You Encounter the Fake Website

If you come across the website https://workaway.co.za/ or any similar platform:

  1. Do not submit personal information or payment details.

  2. Report the website to Workaway International immediately.

  3. Warn others who may be considering applying for overseas work opportunities.

Fraudulent websites often try to mimic legitimate organisations in order to collect personal data or exploit job seekers. Workaway International remains committed to protecting applicants and ensuring that all recruitment processes are conducted safely and transparently.

If you are ever unsure whether a communication or website is legitimate, please contact Workaway International directly through our official channels for verification.
