Such advertisement have neither been issued nor published by BSNL or on its behalf," the statement said.

The company said that it neither appoints any agent nor asks for any kind of money deposit for job or interviews from job seekers.

BSNL has asked people to inform vigilance wing of the company about any suspicious communication made to them through emails or phone calls.
