Cameroon · Data Sentinel Initiative

Check before you pay. Check before you travel.

A fake job abroad can cost someone their savings, and sometimes their freedom. ASMI-Cameroun is a declared Cameroonian nonprofit civil society association based in Nkongsamba. We help people verify an offer before they act, and we use anonymous data to spot scams early.

Who we are

A small Cameroonian team with a practical job.

We are based in Nkongsamba, in Moungo. We work on fake job offers, online recruitment scams and trafficking, mostly by helping people ask the right questions before they pay or travel.

We also gather anonymous field data, so we can see which scams are spreading and where. That is what Data Sentinel is for.

Data Sentinel

How we turn scattered reports into something we can act on.

Each report is cleaned, checked and added to a pattern we can read: which scams, where, aimed at whom. We publish totals, never names.

Our programme

Safe choices, safe return.

One 12-month programme in Littoral, Centre and West: community ambassadors who teach young people and job seekers to check an offer before they pay, support for returned survivors of trafficking, and a role as ambassador for survivors who choose it. It is a proposal seeking 11,520,000 FCFA (US$20,000).

Meanwhile, gifts from our community launch it in Littoral, starting in Moungo. The counter shows what has been confirmed so far.
