27/10/2025 – On Monday (27), the Santos Port Authority (APS) warned about a WhatsApp scam offering fake job opportunities at Brazil’s largest port. Scammers pose as recruiters and charge applicants around R$30 for a bogus criminal background certificate. Victims lose money and face embarrassment when realizing the jobs don’t exist. APS clarified it never recruits via WhatsApp, hires only through public exams, and never requests payment. Legitimate job seekers are advised to contact licensed contractors or local employment centers in Santos and Guarujá.
