• Atlantic Media general counsel Aretae Wyler is combating scammers posing as editors and senior staff.

Over the past few months, the scammers have sent out fraudulent job offerings to gain personal information from hopeful employees, according to Wyler.

“The imposters have created numerous misleading email accounts, including gmail addresses in the names of editors, gmail addresses that include The Atlantic’s name (e.g., recruitment.atlanticmagazine@gmail.com), and addresses employing fake domains (e.g., @atlanticmediagroup.net),” Wyler explained in an online post .
