Through an influx of recent messages to the Olympia Author Hub social media accounts, we have been made aware of a phishing scheme that has been circulating.
Scammers have been presenting themselves as affiliates of Olympia Author Hub, posting fake job listings on Facebook groups and contacting people through Telegram, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger. These supposed jobs include the likes of data entry, typist, translator and blog content writer.
Foremostly, please be aware that Olympia Author Hub is a standalone blog website owned by Olympia Publishers. The site -including management of its respective social media accounts and all blog content- is operated entirely by one person, and we would therefore never advertise jobs specifically for Author Hub. Olympia Publishers would also never hire or advertise using any kind of instant messaging services, such as those listed above. Furthermore, the wider Olympia Publishers name exclusively publishes in the English language, and consequently would never hire anyone to perform translation services.
Many of the people reaching out to us who have come into contact with these scammers have been sent the following, or a similar message that includes an image with Author Hub’s logo and an “About Us” section copied and pasted from Olympia’s website:
