Businesses are warning that fraudsters are impersonating genuine recruitment companies and advertising fake jobs to try to steal personal information.
The number of recruitment scams reported to Action Fraud is rising.
A Home Office spokesperson said there had been an estimated 3.2 million fraud offences in the year ending September 2023 - down 13% from the previous year.
