****JOB SCAM ALERT**** We have been noticing a steady rise in job scams, where scammers are impersonating legitimate companies to defraud unsuspecting job seekers. To ensure your job search is safe, follow these quick safety tips and avoid potential scams: 1. Verify the Company's Legitimacy • Research the Employer: Look up the company online and verify their contact information on the official website. • Cross Check Email Domains: Legitimate companies use official email domains. Be wary of offers from generic email services or variations of the company’s actual domain (e.g., at LeadStack our actual email domain is leadstackinc.com; any variations like @leadstack-inc.com is a scam ). 2. Be Wary of Any Solicitation of Payments • Financial Details: Do not share bank details etc during the initial stages of the hiring process. • Upfront Payments: A legitimate employer will never ask you to pay for training, background checks, or any other job-related fees. 3. Report Suspicious Activity • Report Scams: Report any suspicious job offers to law enforcement, job boards, the impersonated company, and consumer protection agencies. Stay vigilant and informed.
