6 signs of spotting job scams
We live in an era where jobs are very limited and people would do anything to find employment, unfortunately job scammers are taking advantage of the situation, here are tips to protect you from being lured in.
1. “Massive opportunity to work from home and earn more than R10 000 a month”
Note even some well-educated people cannot earn that amount. However, you can, how?
2. “Make a profit in just five minutes”
You cannot even dress your bed in five minutes, but you can make cash in five minutes, which is not true at all.
3. “Pay/buy something to earn something”
There is no stamp money, no uniform money; no legal job will ask you to pay before the job.
4. “Requesting bank details”
Do not give your bank details to a person you do not even see, but talking on a phone.
5. “They use powerful names to attract readers”
Before applying, research the company: Google their name, contact details, company website, visit their Social Network profiles of both the company and the recruiter. Remember three to five posts are repeated all the time, first warning
6. “High earnings with no effort”
No interview jobs are different jobs; do not expect to be hired without submitting your CV or qualifications.
