Is this job legit?

Paste a job posting below and we'll scan it for red flags: scam-associated phrases, missing pay ranges, no identifiable company, and other warning signs. Free, no signup required — everything runs in your browser.

This is an automated scan, not a fraud determination. It flags possible red flags — it can't certify a posting as legitimate or prove one is a scam. When in doubt, verify the company independently and never send money or sensitive personal information to someone you haven't met.

Common job scams to know

  • Fake-check scams: you're sent a check, asked to deposit it and wire part back — the check bounces.
  • Fee-for-work scams: you're asked to pay for training, a starter kit, or a background check before starting.
  • Reshipping / money mule: you're hired to receive and forward packages or payments — that's laundering.
  • Data harvesting: a “job” that mostly collects your SSN, bank details, or ID documents.

Suspect fraud? Report it to the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov or the FBI's IC3 at ic3.gov.
