QNET, a global wellness and lifestyle-focused direct selling company, was recently made aware of fraudulent activities being carried out in the name of its CSR arm, RYTHM Foundation.
An individual had set up an office in Port Harcourt in the name of RYTHM Foundation and was using online ads offering jobs in the foundation. The incident came to light when a job seeker who had contacted the individual about the job was asked to pay a fee in order to secure the job. Suspicion prompted the individual to verify the ad’s legitimacy by contacting the Foundation directly.
QNET promptly reported the incident to relevant authorities, leading to the arrest of the perpetrator, and the matter is currently under investigation. QNET is deeply troubled by the impersonation of RYTHM Foundation for illicit activities, including fake job offers and other deceptive practices. RYTHM Foundation, QNET, or any of our affiliate companies, are not associated with these activities and disavow any connection with the perpetrators. The company is committed to collaborating with authorities to apprehend fraudsters.
QNET warns the public to be vigilant and verify information before engaging in any such commitments.
QNET, and any other affiliated company, does not offer jobs in exchange for a fee. The company urges the public to report any such job ads via the WhatsApp compliance hotline for Sub-Saharan African markets on +233256630005.
QNET remains dedicated to empowering individuals through life enhancing products and micro-entrepreneurship opportunities. The company has undertaken educational and public awareness initiatives such as establishing the Direct Selling Disinformation Centre (DSDC) and launching the “Social Awareness Campaign” and “Say No Campaign” to protect individuals from scams.
