tobnical: any job application to be sent to ...@yahoo, google/hotmail.com and not @company`s name might be a scam. You have been using Might?which shows there is also a possibility of it not being a scam. How do one know for certain it isn't a scam? |

How about those ones that say you should send your name and other details to a phone number? |
| Re: How To Detect Job Scam!!! by Lekmusic: 1:59pm On Mar 26, 2012 |
Points 2 and 3 shouldn't have the word 'might' but 'definitely'. |

Lekmusic: Points 2 and 3 shouldn't have the word 'might' but 'definitely'.some companies are not popular such dat u might not find such company's name on google& yet they re true. some recruitment/job search agencies sometimes ask for registration fee&yet dey re true. |

[quote author=olaezebala][/quote] some of dem re scam, some re GNLD distributors while some are job search agencies. your discretion is highly needed. |

How much does it cost to create a website that is not registered to a genuine COY? If a website is linked to google and others does not mean that the job posting is not a scam. |

tobnical: any job application to be sent to ...@yahoo, google/hotmail.com and not @company`s name might be a scam. Yeah true, like someone just pointed out, to 'protect' their identity and for other reasons best known to them, some coys could just use an employee's e-mail however adding up 2+2 would show the 'desperation' if such is a scammer. @topic Any job that doesn't specify the discipline (e.g. Any qualification) might be a scam. Please note the difference here o! I've seen ads that the 'qualifications' are not specified yet the job requirements show specialty in an area. It's in the scammer's desperation that he wants 'mass applications' from mugus so s/he makes sure there are no 'barriers to entry' yet the job could be a position for Senior Financial Analyst. = 1 Like |

There is no fool proof method to detect a scam. The ONLY way to know is when they ask for money(no matter how little under any guise). Cos d aim of scams is to dupe people. So, when you are asked to pay money, pls RUN!!!! |
