SCAM ALERT
Dear Austin Ventures Community:
We have recently been made aware that some people have been targeted by scammers impersonating our company and pretending to be employees to lure candidates to apply for jobs. These scammers may ask you to schedule an interview via Teams or another method of communication (they have their camara off), extend an offer letter, and possibly issue a fraudulent check as payment for employment supplies in an attempt to trick and obtain your individual personal and banking information. These inquiries are not associated with us. Please be aware that there are no legitimate employment opportunities with Austin Ventures and we are not hiring.
For your security, we kindly ask that you:
- Always verify the sender’s email address. Our official domain is @austinventures.com.
- Do not share personal information over an informal or unsecured channel, such as a Teams interview, or respond to emails you were not expecting and seem suspicious. Do not click on any email links.
- Do not deposit checks supposedly to cover employment (or other) expenses.
- Contact us directly through our main reception line at 512-485-1900 if you have any questions or concerns.
If you have received an email that looks suspicious or have been contacted by someone falsely representing themselves as an Austin Ventures employee, please do not respond and stop engaging with them immediately. It is a scam.
Additionally, you can check the Federal Trade Commission website to learn more about what to do if you have been the victim of a scam. https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/
Thank you for your vigilance. Your security is important to us.
Best regards,
Austin Ventures
