With the rising unemployment rate, job scams are becoming more rampant, preying on desperate job seekers. In an online interview with DW News, I shed light on the alarming surge in job scams across Nigeria and how to identify fake job opportunities before falling victim.
How to Spot a Job Scam 🔍
🚩 Too-good-to-be-true offers – If the salary seems unrealistically high for little to no work, be skeptical.
🚩 No clear company details – Always verify the employer’s website, address, and social media presence.
🚩 Upfront payment requests – Legitimate employers will never ask you to pay for training, processing, or job placement.
🚩 Urgency and pressure – Scammers often rush applicants into making hasty decisions.
🚩 No qualifications required – High-paying jobs with no specific skills needed? Be cautious!
🔴 Stay Informed. Stay Safe.
With job scams on the rise, knowledge is your best defense. Don’t fall for fraudulent job offers—do your research and always verify before accepting any employment opportunity.
