Is This Job Real?
Copy and paste the job description and company details directly from the posting below. We'll give you an honest read on whether it looks legitimate, suspicious, or like an outright scam.
What this checks
- Vague or missing company information — no named employer, no verifiable website, or a generic "hiring manager" signature.
- Upfront payment requests — training fees, equipment deposits, certification costs, or any ask for money before you earn.
- Requests for sensitive data — bank details, ID photos, Social Security numbers, or copies of personal documents before an offer.
- Generic or personal email addresses — recruiters using Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, or other free domains instead of a company domain.
- Off-platform contact — listings that push you immediately to WhatsApp, Telegram, or private messaging apps.
- Mismatched domains — a company name that does not match the URL or email domain it sends you to.
- Unrealistic pay — salaries far above market rate for the role, location, or your experience level.
- Urgency pressure — "apply in the next hour," "only three spots left," or demands to act before you can research.
- MLM, reshipping, crypto, or money-handling language — package-forwarding jobs, "investment opportunities," or requests to process payments for others.
Why job scams are hard to spot
The best scam listings copy the look and feel of real ones: a professional job title, a plausible company name, and a familiar application process. They often arrive through the same job boards and recruiting sites you already trust. That is why a quick second read of the actual text matters — the warning signs are usually hiding in the details, not the design.
What to do if a listing looks suspicious
- Do not send documents, money, or personal information until you have independently verified the company and the recruiter.
- Verify the company on your own — search for its official website, check the email domain against that site, and look up the role on the company's careers page.
- Check the domain carefully — scammers often register names that are one letter off from real companies.
- Report the listing to the job board and, if money was requested or lost, to your local fraud authority.
What this tool does not do
This tool reads the text you paste and compares it against common scam signals. It cannot verify that a company exists, confirm that a recruiter is real, access external databases, or guarantee that a legitimate-looking post is safe. Use it as a first filter, not a final decision.
