Acrivon Therapeutics has become aware of  certain fraudulent acts where unknown entities have posed as Acrivon recruiters in an attempt to obtain personal information from individuals purportedly as part of Acrivon’s application or job offer process.  Before providing any personal information regarding a position to someone claiming to be affiliated with Acrivon, please verify that the individual’s email address ends with “@acrivon.com” and that the open position described is posted on our website at acrivon.com/contact/.

We are aware that certain false employment offers have requested personal information or funds to further the recruitment process. Please note that Acrivon’s recruiting process never includes a request for payment nor confidential personal information. A formal recruitment process, including an interview with multiple members of the Acrivon team, is always required to gain an offer of employment from Acrivon Therapeutics.

Legitimate emails from Acrivon Therapeutics employees end in “@acrivon.com.” Recent scams have come from similar email addresses or emails using public domain IDs (@gmail.com @yahoo.com, @aol.com, etc.). Sometimes fraudsters use photographs and names of real people or create fake websites and marketing materials that resemble the company’s genuine website. Acrivon Therapeutics acts to shut these false addresses and websites down whenever the company is made aware of them.

Acrivon Therapeutics values every individual seeking to join our team and mission and is deeply troubled by these fraudsters attempting to take advantage of your interest in our company. We are taking the necessary steps to investigate this matter further. If you have been a potential victim of an employment application scam, please contact the Internet Crimes Complaint Center at www.IC3.gov. The FBI’s IC3 aggregates criminal events to analyze and prosecute crimes.
