A few days ago I wrote a very long post about fraudulent recruitment, and published an e-mail I'd received from M. Jean-Pierre Zunino, who had been a victim of it.
I think it cost Jean-Pierre quite a lot to come out on Monster France, LinkedIn, Twitter - and this blog - to tell the world that he'd been taken for a fool by unscrupulous people, and I admire and applaud his willingness to do that in an effort to warn other people of a potential danger.
He's been rewarded, in a roundabout sort of way. His honesty has pulled a lot of other victims out of the closet.
If you've been a victim of this kind of fraud, it's difficult to advertise it - but it would be kindly and generous to do so. Other victims feel less foolish, and more able to relate their own experiences fully, if one person is prepared to speak out - and many witnesses can build an evidential mountain that might lead to a conviction and the end of at least one fraud.
Falling for a scam isn't anything to be ashamed of - but keeping quiet about it might be.
