Job Scams and How to Avoid Them
Finding employment has been near impossible lately. Especially with the pandemic going on, the search has become longer and more difficult. Even for people like myself, who have Bachelor’s degrees and plenty of customer service experience, the wait is becoming irritating and it’s no secret that if you’re applying online, like most of us are, the chances of your resume being seen are slim. So, you release the firing squad of job applications and bite onto any attention you can get. This is where the job scams come in. These people, preying on the desperation of the unemployed, lure you in with benefits, high wages, and flexible hours. Some poor souls have even been entirely robbed with job scams like the rubber check scam or even less obvious methods such as joining MLMs (Multi-level Marketing organizations) or network marketing companies.
