Being almost jobless I have started a deep job search online. I would like to work from home and I have been looking for something that can make me pay my monthly bills. However I saw some posts talking about job scams and what are the signs that makes a job offer not reliable.
Here are some of the main reasons to not trust on a job offer:
- Jobs that offer a salary of millions. Make 100k in one months is an example.
- Social security number required
- Bank account requested
- Cash advance required
- MLM jobs
- Email of contact from gmail, yahoo, hotmail. Only trust those with personalized email addresses
- No references on job webpage
When doing a job search make sure you have reliable information. Check if the phone numbers on the site are working and even make a phone call to make sure it is a real company with a real job offer.
