Job Scams are erroneous job ads distributed by impostors that look to lure Job Seekers to provide them with with personal data and/or perform a fake job. You may receive a job offer from someone who claims that they found your resume or CareerBuilder or Monster.
To avoid being the victim of a Job Scam remember the following steps:
1. Never give out your bank account information.
2. Never give out your credit card information.
3. Never forward, transfer, or wire money to an employer.
4. Do not transfer money and retain a portion for payment.
Most companies do not need personal bank information to pay an employer with the exception being the US government who would need your bank account information to do a direct deposit.
