The South African government has warned young women not to fall for social media recruitment drives promoting job opportunities abroad.
This comes as a number of online videos by South African social media influencers advertising jobs for young women in Russia have gone viral.
In videos shared to millions of followers, several South African influencers encouraged women aged 18 to 22 to join a programme called “Alabuga Start” with vague promises of international careers, flights, housing and Russian language classes in a region in central Russia.

Why would anyone go to work in a country who has started a full fledged unprovoked war with its neighbor? They have stolen children from and unalived hundreds of thousands maybe even millions of people. Why would you all go to work with or for them. By the way African men and women have long been enslaved by business and families in the Middle East ( TODAY) so why would anyone fall for this in Russia? Huuuhh! whyyy? Why are Africans continue to fall for this? Next China will do the same thing and you all will fall for it. Noooo, have you not learned from history that they only time a non black country want Black people yo come to work is to Enslaved them. Then they don’t let them go back home until the debt is paid off or maybe never!!!! We can’t claim to be smart and keep falling for this trick.
I heard they work in warehouses making drones 😂
