Phish: EMPLΟYMENT ΟFFER!
Published: August 26, 2024
This job offer scam is a form of phishing used to take advantage of students and new graduates who are seeking employment.
If an email states extremely high compensation for a position that requires no skills or experience, few hours of work, and seems too good to be true, then it is likely a scam. One way to validate the legitimacy of a job posting is to check for the posting on the company’s official website or job boards.
