The tells a rushed applicant misses
Fraud follows repeatable patterns. We check all of them at once, before you reply.
Listing forensics
Duplicated descriptions, mismatched salary bands and copy lifted from real companies get flagged instantly.
Payment red flags
Registration fees, security deposits, training charges and 'refundable' kit costs are called out in plain language.
Employer checks
We cross-check the company name, domain age, official careers page and public registration footprint.
Recruiter verification
Free-mail domains, mismatched profile history and freshly created accounts lower the trust score.
Safe-to-apply rating
A single verdict — safe, caution or avoid — with the two or three specific reasons that drove it.
Community alerts
Once a scam pattern is reported by several users, everyone scanning a similar post gets warned.

A job link, a screenshot's text, an email or a recruiter's WhatsApp message.

How placement fraud works in India
The fee is always the point
Legitimate employers and licensed consultants never ask a candidate for registration, training or document-processing money. Every variant of the scam eventually arrives at a small, urgent, 'refundable' payment — usually under ₹5,000 so victims do not escalate.
Real brands, fake recruiters
The most convincing scams borrow a genuine company's job description, logo and offer letter template, then route replies to a personal email or a lookalike domain. Checking where the reply actually goes is more useful than checking how the letter looks.
Urgency is the weapon
Same-day joining, expiring offers and 'only two seats left' exist to stop you from verifying. A real hiring process survives a 24-hour pause; a fraudulent one usually does not.
