Hey everyone,

I am trying for a switch right now and have been asked to share my "PanCard and Selfie Photo with Pan card" by the recruiters before even scheduling any interviews. This has happened quite a few times in last week.

I want to know is it a common practice or is it some new scam??

If you are needed to send that, ask for an official email address and send the photo there. Some email like @tcs.com or @infosys.com. Do not share PII and PPI to common email addresses like gmail or outlook, neither over Whatsapp or RCS.

Which company?

smart

Yes they need to verify your actual identity but send it on their official email id only.
Also ask them officially saying you are ok to share but wanted to know the reason why they wanted this
