Questions fréquentes
How do job scams work?
Scammers post fake jobs on legitimate job boards, conduct fake interviews via chat or email, then either request personal information for "background checks," ask for upfront payments for training/equipment, or use you for illegal reshipping or money laundering schemes.
What are the warning signs of a job scam?
Red flags include: vague job descriptions, immediate hiring without interview, requests for money for training or equipment, asking for SSN/bank info before hiring, communication only via chat/text, salaries too good to be true, and no verifiable company information.
Can I trust work-from-home job offers?
Many legitimate work-from-home jobs exist, but this sector is heavily targeted by scammers. Research the company thoroughly, never pay for job opportunities, be wary of "easy money" claims, and verify job postings on the company's official website.
