Beware of fake job offers misusing the AppStudio name
Scammers are impersonating AppStudio with counterfeit emails and messages, fake recruiter profiles, and offers that promise easy money. AppStudio has no connection to any of these schemes. Please read the warnings below to stay safe.
The warning
Don’t be fooled by unsolicited job offers
Fraudsters exploit our brand and our people’s identities to look legitimate. Keep these facts in mind before acting on any message that claims to be from AppStudio.
Our only official domain is appstudio.ca. Legitimate communication comes exclusively from appstudio.ca email addresses. Treat any other domain, or a lookalike spelling of our name, as fraudulent.
AppStudio never asks anyone to pay money to get a job or to earn income. We have no involvement with any scheme that requires a deposit, a transfer, or a cryptocurrency payment such as USDT.
Our team will never request your personal data, banking details, passwords, or one-time verification codes over email, phone, or messaging apps.
